Katharine Kerr Libri

La principessa Carra sa bene che il bambino che porta in grembo è prezioso, perché da lui può dipendere il destino di molte cose, forse della stessa pace. Fuori dalle mura della città di Cengarn, dove la principessa si è ritirata insieme alle maghe Jill e Dallandra, premono le orde inferocite degli Horsekin, decise a conquistare la città. Dell'assedio di Cengarn vengono a conoscenza Rhodry e il drago Arzosah, suo nuovo alleato, che subito organizzano una spedizione per andare in soccorso della città e della principessa, accompagnati dai guerrieri del popolo dei nani.

Nella città di Cerr Cawnen l’antica malvagità si ridesta quando la sacerdotessa Raena riprende le trame per distruggere Rhodry, suo acerrimo nemico al di là del tempo. Un perfido disegno che attira però l’intervento di arcani poteri astrali e scatena l’ira tremenda del drago protettore di Rhodry. Soltanto un’altra apprendista del dweomer può garantire la salvezza della città e dello stesso Rhodry, ma a un prezzo spaventosamente alto…

Their leaders know that if the Westlands fall to the Horsekin, their own throats will feel that dagger next. Joining them are two powerful dragons, who have their own bitter reasons to hate the Horsekin. But the fanatical Horsekin believe that they have the most powerful ally of all: a new goddess.

Katharine Kerr's dazzling saga tells of ancient enmities and undying friendships experienced through many lives. Epic fantasy on a truly grand scale.
