Terrible death stalks the streets of teeming Sha'angh'sei, and bloody vengeance rides in its wake. No man -- or woman -- is safe.
Then ghastly terror strikes at Moichi, oath-brother to the Dai-San. At the Circus of Souls, Moichi discovers a prize, more enchanting, more deadly than he can imagine, and he's pitched headlong into a mission of rescue and revenge, with the lovely, enigmatic Bujun warrior Chiisai at his side.
Together they search to the farthest reaches of the world, where the moon shines not in one color, but in many. There, beyond the limits of the human realm, waits a mad sorceress . . . and the Firemask, the fearsome key that will unlock every nightmare the world has ever known!

‘A master storyteller’ Publishers Weekly

From the Back Cover:

BENEATH AN OPAL MOON

A superb fantasy novel from the author of the international bestsellers 'The Ninja' and 'The Kaisho'

Monstrous evil stalks Moichi Annai-Nin, blood brother to the Dai-San, the Sunset Warrior. The months of peace in the port of Sha'angh'sei have been abruptly shattered by vicious, sadistic slaughter.

Across the inhospitable continent of man, Moichi finds he must pursue a devil of awesome proportions to regain his lost love, to avenge a ghastly murder, to find the fabled and mysterious Firemask.

Into the land of the Opal Moon Moichi must go, unknown and forbidden territory filled with a magic beyond understanding, a menace beyond comprehension, ruled by a sorcerer-queen named Sardonyx who holds the fate of the world in the palm of her hand.

Eric Lustbader returns to the fantasy world he created with the legendary 'Sunset Warrior Trilogy' in the most magical fantasy novel of all- 'Beneath An Opal Moon'.
