I enjoy Eddings words, I don't think this is my favourite of his books but still enjoyable. A bit battered copy, needs fixing (some sticky tape won't hurt)

From Publishers Weekly
Sir Sparhawk and his wife, Queen Ehlana of Elenia, encounter ever more sinister plots in the second book of The Tamuli , following Domes of Fire , as they try to help the emperor of Tamuli take a firm grasp of the government. In a world of many gods, whose powers depend on the number and fervor of their worshippers, the royal couple find themselves pawns in the struggle of one entity to free his followers, albeit bloodthirsty and un-neighborly, from constraints placed upon them eons previously. Unrest spreads throughout Tamuli, with indications of sorcery and meddling by various gods, prompting the goddess Aphrael, reincarnated as the royal couple's young daughter Danae, to retrieve the powerful sapphire-rose jewel Bhelliom, hidden a few years earlier after being used to destroy the evil god Azash. While Sparhawk, Aphrael (now in the guise of the child Flute) and various companions race through a hostile countryside, encountering the mythical and abhorred Shining Ones, the queen and emperor play a more stylized game to keep the enemy at bay. Neatly blending simplicity and complexity, this tale of comradeship, dastardly doings, multiple gods, strange races and noble and ignoble humans is vintage Eddings.

RELEASE NOTES:

Left inside the hall on one of the table and chairs set near the cafe and near the funky light stalls.

I think it was gone before I was gone but I hadn't been watching.

I was planning on reading it but it has been sitting on my shelf so long and I have read the series before that I need to keep my NY's resolution to put books out to be read by others rather than gather dust on my shelf.
