Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:"Elegant, sweeping, and colorful...one of those books you wish would never end." (San Francisco Chronicle)
This is the acclaimed novel about forbidden love, bitter rivalries, and power struggles, set in a world based on Eleanor of Aquitaine's France-from Guy Gavriel Kay, who "stands among the world's finest fantasy authors" (Montreal Gazette). "This panoramic, absorbing novel beautifully creates an alternate version of the medieval world....Kay creates a vivid world of love and music, magic, and death." (Publishers Weekly) "A richly ornamented and tightly woven tapestry, a panoramic and compelling tale....War, love, assassination, deception, kindness, heroism, loyalty, friendship, and magic mix...in startling, unexpected, and satisfying ways." (Locus) "A cracking good fantasy novel." (Interzone) "Kay has another hit on his hands." (Toronto Star) "Rarely has a book come along that fulfills on so many levels without succumbing to stereotype or unbelievable characters ....Kay skillfully and lyrically paints a portrait of a land and the human hearts that inhabit it, complete with their failures and epiphanies." (Palm Beach Post) "A novel of epic sweep and panoramic romance provides a sensual and stirring feast for readers." (South Bend Tribune) Synopsis:For the Northern mercenary called Blaise, it began with the death of a king and betrayal in the form of a peace treaty. Wandering in self-imposed exile, he would journey to the Kingdom of Arbonne, where the Court of Love made warriors bow to troubadours, and a well-sung ballad was valued as highly as a skillfully swung sword. But Arbonne was a troubled realm, torn by an ancient feud between its two most powerful dukes and coveted as a prize by the land in which Blaise himself had grown to manhood. And no one—except perhaps Arbonnes goddess—could forsee that one Northern mercenary might become the key to Arbonnes destiny.... Synopsis:A peaceful, gentle, and passionate kingdom named Arbonne is invaded by ruthless northern warriors, and Arbonne's goddess and Arbonne's people must band together to fight the invaders.
