![]() ![]() ![]() In the city of Spire Vanis, the surlord, Penthero Iss keeps his adopted daughter (or, as he calls her, his almost-daughter), Ash March, in virtual - if comfortable - house arrest. Some, though, remember that darker days than night lie ahead. and worse, he will later be held responsible for the cruelties the new chief inflicts upon the other clans, the atrocities that force them into an all-consuming war. Raif alone challenges his lies, and ends up fleeing the clan (with the help of his uncle, Angus Lok, member of a mysterious society, the Phage), breaking a sacred oath - he is now an outcast. He is now chief, and is doing everything possible to quell their suspicions. They alone know of the treachery that went on, and that a fellow survivor - Mace Blackhail - was responsible. ![]() When a hunting party for the clan Bludd is viciously attacked, Raif Sevrance and his older brother, Drey, survive. With the recent publication of A Sword From Red Ice, the third part in J.V Jones' fantasy series, Sword of Shadows (originally a trilogy, but now something much larger), I decided it was time I got around to reading this exciting series, especially after her earlier trilogy, The Book of Words. ![]()
