"She longed to plunge a dagger into his handsome back. She had mastered the arts of war, not love. Disguised as a man, she fought as fiercely as any Scots warrior. Then an English soldier with blazing blue eyes stormed her castle walls and exposed Jamelyn's shocking secret. The last defender of Raven's Keep was not a man but a shapely auburn-haired beauty! Even after the treacherous king made her marry Justin, her conqueror, she vowed never to surrender. Yet a smoldering passion lay between them, ready to burst into a roaring inferno. The novel of a passionate woman who could fight anything-- except love."--Back cover.
The Octagon Knights have fallen. The king is dead. The knight marshal leads a ragged band of survivors, waging a desperate winter war against the Mordant's hordes. Sorely beleaguered, the knights fight with valor, but this battle is much more than a contest of swords...it is a battle of souls. In the far north, Kath's great victory becomes a dire trap as winter closes its deadly fist. In the south, still reeling from the Flame War, Queen Liandra struggles to rally her kingdom, unaware that Darkness converges on her city like a strangling noose. Plots thicken as old alliances reform and new temptations arise. The players are being positioned for the Battle Immortal, an epic struggle of Light and Dark where all of Erdhe hangs in the balance.
While Kath and her companions chase the Mordant into the far north, the southern kingdoms erupt in flames. The Lord Raven marches south, unleashing a holy war against Lanverness. Vastly outnumbered by a ruthless enemy, Queen Liandra spins desperate gambits in a dire struggle to save her kingdom. Armies clash, battles, rage, and cities fall, as lives, loves and crowns hang in the balance, but swords are not the only way to wage war. Treachery, deceit, assassins, and the power of seduction will face-off against steadfast courage, forgotten magic, and the power of truth--Back cover.
