Description
"Masquerading as human, Queen Malkar of Karenia preserves her youth by drawing out the souls of her subjects. When a captain of the rival kingdom enters Malkar's lands on a diplomatic mission, a series of events topples thrones and causes death as well as love in both lands.
An accomplished and award-winning author of historical fiction (We Speak No Treason), Jarman infuses her first fantasy with period detail, drawing from the Austro-Hungarian Empire of the 1800s for atmosphere while building strong, passionate characters.
Reminiscent of works by Tanith Lee and Storm Constantine in its emphasis on sensual details and exotic eroticism, this tale of love, revolution, and magic also sparkles with often unexpected touches of humor. A good choice for mature fantasy readers." - The Library Journal
