From the national bestselling author of The Samaria Trilogy...this is the novel that launched Sharon Shinn's career and inspired Peter S. Beagle to call her "the most original writer of fantasy since Robin McKinley."

Aubrey was a student of the fine art of wizardry. But the more knowledge he acquired, the more he wanted to learn. He traveled in search of the greatest master of all, the gifted shape-changer Glyrenden. From him, Aubrey expected to discover the secret of long-lost spells and the mysteries of arcane magic.

But there was one discovery he never expected, a mystery he risked every thing to solve. Her name was Lilith...

This was the first Sharon Shinn book I read. Strangely enough (or maybe not so much), I first heard of this author after joining Bookcrossing, at the suggestion of other Bookcrossers. Well, I got this book from Bookcloseouts and finally managed to read it, and I can say that I'll be keeping an eye on other books by this author because I really, really enjoyed this book.

The story is not all that complex, but the way the author writes the characters, sets the mood and develops the narrative makes this novel a real pleasure to read. And the end brought tears to my eyes; this doesn't really say much because I'm very sentimental and cry over everything... :o)

Offering as a RABCK to my favourite relayer SandDanz. Hope you enjoy it.

Thanks so much sis! :) Good thing I tell you what I'm ordering from BookCloseouts before I order, else I would've ended up with 2 copies of this one! *laughs*
