Overview

It's hard to hide from a sorceress--as Colmar, a reluctant soldier of fortune, discovers after crossing the distinctly dangerous Valdira over a powerful magical artifact, the Eye of Ksera. To add to his troubles, a sinister necromancer, a grasping abbess, and an undead sorceress-queen all have this tantalizing treasure in their sights, as well! Indeed, the Eye is an ill-fated gem that has cost the lives of many who have sought to possess it over the centuries. Who will survive this briskly paced adventure in a quirky world with two moons and five different systems of magic? Who will emerge from it with the Eye? And, nearly as important, who will end up with custody of Angvar, the necromancer's crested green lizard?

Author Information

After working for the U.S. Department of Justice for twelve years under another name, Sedigitus Swift became one of two in-house historians for Archelaus (because what up-and-coming publisher doesn't need at least two?). He specializes in the perplexities of modern Central and Eastern Europe--that is, when he is not diverting himself by writing offbeat medieval fantasy novellas. He was born in Illinois, grew up in California, went to school in Chicago and New York, and now dwells in Washington, DC, where he does his best to shun actual human contact.
