DESCRIPTION:
The inclusion of graphic scenes of sado-eroticism, though integral to the story, may deter purchase by some libraries. . Nevertheless, this first novel offers an intriguing variant on the standard fantasy quest. From Library Journal The protective barrier that separates Westland from its neighbors to the east is about to fall, letting loose a monstrous evil upon the world.

The richly detailed world and complex characters will appeal to mature fantasy aficionados.Copyright 1994 Reed Business Information, Inc
