Hardback: 9½" x 6¼". Etat : Very Good: Light signs of wear. Etat de la jaquette : Very Good. Cover Art: Melvyn Grant (illustrateur). 1st UK Edition. © 1997: 1st in the 'Crown Of Stars' series of books. 1st UK edition, 2nd printing hardback. Text block slightly tanned with some foxing:- Synopsis: From one of Fantasy's shining new lights comes this first volume in a magnificent epic set in a richly realised land and culture. But bloody rebellion may soon destroy the kingdom, while sorcerous confrontations and the secret workings of an otherworldly race could transform it into a place in which no mortal was ever meant to dwell. It begins with the threat of civil war. For though King Henry still holds the crown of Wendar, his reign has long been contested by his sister Sabella. There are many eager to flock to her banner, whether from belief in her cause or the hope of personal gain. And there are ways to bring others under her command, methods to make even the most unwilling lord into a weapon pointed at the very heart of Henry's realm. Torn by internal strife, Wendar also faces deadly raids from the north by an inhuman race, the Eika, and from the east by the 'winged' riders, the Qumans. And terrifying portents are being seen by many; old ruins restored to life under the light of the full moon and peopled by the long-vanished Lost Ones; dark spirits walking the land in broad daylight. And suddenly two innocents - Alain, a young man who may find his future in a vision granted by the Lady of Battles, and Liath, a young woman with the power to change the course of history if she can only learn to master her fear and seize what is rightfully hers - are about to be thrust into the midst of the conflict. Liath, who together with her father, has spent her life fleeing from unknown enemies, must learn to stand and fight and must find a way to escape the prison built around her. For the price of failure will be far more than just the loss of her own life. Alain, the fosterling, must unravel the mystery of who he truly is - whether the bastard son of a noble father, the half-breed child of an elfin lord, the unwanted get of a whore, or the heir to a proud and ancient lineage. For only when he discovers the truth can he accept the destiny for which he was born. Liath and Alain, each trapped in a personal struggle for survival, both helplessly being drawn into a greater battle, a war in which sorcery not swords will determine the final outcome, and the land itself may be irrevocably reshaped by the forces unleashed:- Review(s): "This could be a break-out book for Kate Elliott. What really count are her characters. Well-drawn and vivid, they come alive as both people from a very foreign place and people we care about. They keep the plot irresistibly moving forward and draw us into her work. The book is solid, exciting and engrossing - a grand and powerful piece of writing, all in all" - Katharine Kerr, bestselling author of 'Daggerspell':- (original cost £15.99).
