The Shadow of Sorcery - Paperback

by David C. Smith (Author)

In the dark age of an ancient world, a woman loved by a demonic sorcerer is betrayed by her own blood-cursed, cast out, condemned to die. But death is not the end. She is reborn, carrying within her the memory of old wounds and older powers, and with her rebirth comes the promise of a reckoning long overdue.

Now she moves through a world of shadow and sorcery, drawing to her side a warrior of terrible skill-a killer untouched by mercy or scruple-as she reaches across centuries for the dark magic that was always meant to be hers. The sorcerer who once loved her still waits on his lonely island. The king who betrayed her still sits his throne. And she has not forgotten.

A classic of the sword-and-sorcery genre, appearing in a freshly revised text from the author and available for the first time in nearly fifty years, this is a tale of vengeance, desire, and conquest-where the line between victim and predator is drawn in blood and shadow, and a queen of darkness rises to claim what the world once denied her.
