The lush epic fantasy that inspired a generation with a
single precept: Love As Thou Wilt
The first book
in the Kushiel's Legacy series is a novel of grandeur,
luxuriance, sacrifice, betrayal, and deeply laid
conspiracies. A world of cunning poets, deadly courtiers,
deposed rulers and a besieged Queen, a warrior-priest, the
Prince of Travelers, barbarian warlords, heroic traitors,
and a truly Machiavellian villainess...all seen through the
unflinching eyes of an unforgettable heroine.
A
nation born of angels, vast and intricate and surrounded by
danger... a woman born to servitude, unknowingly given
access to the secrets of the realm...
Born with a
scarlet mote in her left eye, Phédre nó
Delaunay is sold into indentured servitude as a child. When
her bond is purchased by an enigmatic nobleman, she is
trained in history, theology, politics, foreign languages,
the arts of pleasure. And above all, the ability to observe,
remember, and analyze. Exquisite courtesan, talented
spy...and unlikely heroine. But when Phédre stumbles
upon a plot that threatens her homeland, Terre d'Ange, she
has no choice.
Betrayed into captivity in the
barbarous northland of Skaldia and accompanied only by a
disdainful young warrior-priest, Phédre makes a
harrowing escape and an even more harrowing journey to
return to her people and deliver a warning of the impending
invasion. And that proves only the first step in a quest
that will take her to the edge of despair and beyond.
Phédre nó Delaunay is the woman who
holds the keys to her realm's deadly secrets, and whose
courage will decide the very future of her world.
