Publisher Comments:

The highly acclaimed author of In Conquest Born turns her attention to fantasy in her boldest and most provocative work to date. On a far-distant planet, ancestors of the original colonists from Earth are caught in a desperate battle for survival against the fae--a terrifying natural force that preys on the human mind. "Promises to be a magnum opus of the imagination".-- Library Journal.

For those who never heard of this novel: give it a try and read it! A brilliantly executed mix of fantasy and SF, "The Coldfire Trilogy" is an action and adventure pack fantasy with wonderfully crafted characters and at the same time a profound reflection on the power of religion and the concept of redemption. Besides, I'm afraid in most cases it takes just a few pages in the company of a certain Gerald Tarrant, the novel's main (anti)hero, to fall in love hopelessly and completely... Great book!
