Synopsis

For years the provinces of Deverry have been in turmoil; now the conflict escalates with the kidnapping of Rhodry Maelwaedd, heir to the throne of Aberwyn. Intent on rescuing him, his beloved Jill and the elven wizard Salamander infiltrate the distant land of Bardex, where Rhodry is held captive. Tied to Deverry by obligation and circumstance, the immortal wizard Nevyn begins to see that all the kingdom's problems can be traced to a single source: a master of dark magics, backed by a network of evil that stretches across the sea. Now Nevyn understands that he too is being lured away to Bardek—and into a subtle, deadly trap designed especially for him.

Katharine Kerr's novels of the Kingdom of Deverry unfold in a world of stunning richness and depth. Her vivid portrayal of characters caught in a complex web of fate and magic captures the imagination with a realism that few can match. Now she returns to this enchanted kingdom, where the wheels of destiny are turning anew.

Goodreads review by Tracy

This is the final Deverry novel. There are others but this is the final novel of the first Deverry series. It’s really a very satisfying book to read, and I think the best one of this series. I know I’ve read it before I think at least twice but this was published in 1990, so it was a long time ago.......more

Goodreads review by Nerine

Finally, I can now say I’ve read the first four books in the Deverry Cycle – in their chronological order. These four books form act one, which Katharine Kerr subheads as “Deverry”. And now, looking back to when I first read these during my mid-teens and now, 20 or so very odd years later, I realise......more

Goodreads review by Sotiris

The book that closes a first cycle in this series. So I was expecting something more ... climactic that will make this closure memorable but in my opinion it didn't. Of course the author arranges the most immediate accounts of the protagonists of the story in a very good and satisfying way, continui......more

Goodreads review by Barry

I had thought to give this book 4 stars because of one part but thought that was unfair as I really enjoyed everything else and it seemed stingy to remove a whole star just because of one part even if that was a fairly major part. Unlike the previous books this all takes place in the 'current' timel......more
