"A very sophisticated fantasy, intricately plotted and a fascinating read."-Robert Jordan "Perhaps once in a decade, if you are fortunate, you discover a debut novel as intoxicating as Jacqueline Carey's Kushiel's Dart. Part reimagined history, this sumptuous, spellbinding fantasy is kaleidoscopic in breadth, intimate in detail. It is sure to be read and talked about for years to come."-Eric Van Lustbader, "A very sophisticated fantasy, intricately plotted and a fascinating read."-Robert Jordan "Perhaps once in a decade, if you are fortunate, you discover a debut novel as intoxicating as Jacqueline Carey's Kushiel's Dart .

Synopsis
A nation born of angels, vast and intricate and surrounded by danger... a woman born to servitude, unknowingly given access to the secrets of the realm... Born with a scarlet mote in her left eye, Phedre no Delaunay is sold into indentured servitude as a child. When her bond is purchased by an enigmatic nobleman, she is trained in history, theology, politics, foreign languages, the arts of pleasure. And above all, the ability to observe, remember, and analyze. Exquisite courtesan, talented spy... and unlikely heroine. But when Phedre stumbles upon a plot that threatens her homeland, Terre d'Ange, she has no choice. Betrayed into captivity in the barbarous northland of Skaldia and accompanied only by a disdainful young warrior-priest, Phedre makes a harrowing escape and an even more harrowing journey to return to her people and deliver a warning of the impending invasion. And that proves only the first step in a quest that will take her to the edge of despair and beyond. Phedre no Delaunay is the woman who holds the keys to her realm's deadly secrets, and whose courage will decide the very future of her world. Not since "Dune" has there been an epic on the scale of "Kushiel's Dart"-a massive tale about the violent death of an old age and the birth of a new. It is a novel of grandeur, luxuriance, sacrifice, betrayal, and deeply laid conspiracies. A world of cunning poets, deadly courtiers, deposed rulers and a besieged Queen, a warrior-priest, the Prince of Travelers, barbarian warlords, heroic traitors, and a truly Machiavellian villainess... all seen through the unflinching eyes of an unforgettable heroine.

    Magazine brought back an old memory regarding war in Viet Nam in the earliest days of U.S. involvment, with recollection of 1st helicopter crew KIA from 8th Transportation Company. I actually saw this MAG while still in country, a great value, as described, packaged to the extreme, but arrived in an even better condition than I expected for a MAG which is nearly 62 yrs old, and shipping was reasonable considering the delicate contents. Seller AAAAA++ Hope to do business with seller again!!

    Seller is very professional. Order was mailed promptly and packaged in a strong box that prevented any possibility of damage. The copy is better than described; it is a real value. I could not be more pleased.

  • Kushiel's Dart is the beginning of a magical journey

    Kushiel's Legacy is one of my all time favorite book series to return to. The author builds a whole new, magical world out of our known geography. The story is compelling and sexy and sad and joyous and such a well crafted tapestry of characters and places. She paints a vivid pictures of places we thought we already knew.
