Summary

In this sequel novella to Mira's Last Dance, Temple sorcerer Penric and the widow Nikys have finally reached safety in the duchy of Orbas when a secret letter from a friend brings frightening news: Nikys's mother has been taken hostage by her brother's enemies at the Cedonian imperial court, and confined in a precarious island sanctuary.

Their own romance still unresolved, Nikys, Penric, and of course Desdemona must infiltrate the hostile country once more, finding along the way that family relationships can be as unexpectedly challenging as any rescue scheme.

Liked story very much. Liked the first one too. Rest of stories also very good. Great narrator. Waiting hopefully for next story. Hope narration follows quickly.

Another satisfying adventure

You know what you're getting at this stage. The dulcet tones of Grover, the subtle humanity of Lois, and an altogether satisfying tale. Next please!

perfect tale-telling, perfect reader - as always

Lois and Grover are as good a combination as Des and Penric. Thank you, both.
