Dark divinations spell trouble for a lawless city in this shared-world fantasy anthology edited by the New York Times–bestselling author of Sanctuary.
“Amusingly ‘low’ fantasy adventure, varied enough to appeal to those who have had their fill of Tolkien and want funnier, nastier stuff.” —Kirkus Reviews
Surviving is a full-time occupation for the citizens of Sanctuary. A city shaped by magic, evil, and political intrigue, she has weathered natural disasters and man-made calamities for ages. The great priest, Molin Torchholder preserved her history and secrets. All his knowledge has since passed along to Cauvin, a stonemason who is now a reluctant advisor to Sanctuary’s current master, the Irrune chieftain Arizak.
Beckoned to the palace, Cauvin hears a troubling prophecy. The shadows are coming, bringing with them sorcery, the likes of which the city hasn’t seen in decades. Sanctuary has reached a turning point. With new dangers on the way and a dead man haunting his thoughts, Cauvin must find a way to ensure his home’s continued survival . . .
Welcome back to Sanctuary and prepare to meet an eccentric cast of characters like Halott the Necromancer, Latilla the daughter of the legendary artist Lalo the Limmer, Dysan the short and scrappy thief, and Jake the Rat!
The shared-world anthology returns with stories by Raymond E. Feist, Dennis L. McKiernan, Mickey Zucker Reichert, Diana Paxson, Jody Lynn Nye, Lynn Abbey, and many more.
“Shapechangers, wizards, cutpurses, and assassins share the spotlight in stories by Lynn Abbey, Raymond Feist, Andrew Offut, and others. Fans of the original ‘Thieves’ World’ series should enjoy this volume, a sequel to Abbey’s novel Sanctuary and a harbinger of other volumes to come. A good choice for most fantasy collections.” —Library Journal

Tungkol sa may-akda
Lynn Abbey, ex–New Yorker, ex-Michigander, and ex-Oklahoman, moved to Florida in 1997, which she says is nice, but she misses snow. Her first novel, Daughter of the Bright Moon, was published in 1978. Since then, she has published more than two dozen novels, most of them fantasies. She has been called the “Godmother of Shared Universes” for her part in creating, editing, and writing the Thieves’ World® series of anthologies, novels, and games. Abbey says she writes fantasies because when her imagination gets going, it is full of magic, intrigue, and the colors of a stained-glass window. If science fiction is the fiction of possible futures, then fantasy is the fiction of possible histories.
