What the reader knows and they don't is that they are walking into a trap laid by the Empire's devious Lord Jhanun, who covets the Phoenix Throne and plans the enslavement of four Dragonlords to fulfil a prophecy: One alone--the Hidden One--means the end of the Phoenix. But four will give you the throne--.
There's no straightforward clash of Good vs Evil here, but a much-recomplicated struggle of many factions: the Dragonlord party with its own internal quarrels and a betrayer leading them by the nose; Jhanun's multiple plots; the Emperor and his tough-minded concubine who is determined to be Empress; rivalries among the mage-priests who control the Phoenix; rebellious horse-clans on the Empire's margins; and a special, local breed of dragon, long thought extinct. Great tension develops as everyone's plans, and eventually the prophecy, work out not quite as expected. A fat, well-crafted and wholly satisfying fantasy. --David Langford
JOANNE BERTIN is also the author of two additional novels, The Last Dragonlord and Bard's Oath. She lives in Connecticut.
