The Shadow Isle
Book Six of The Dragon Mage
As the tale of Deverry and her people draws near to its close, questions will be answered and mysteries uncovered…
The
wild Northlands hold many secrets, among them the mysterious dweomer
island of Haen Marn, the mountain settlements of Dwarvholt, and the
fortified city of Cerr Cawnen, built long ago by escaping bondmen from
Deverry itself. And just who or what are the mysterious Dwgi folk?
Thanks
to the Horsekin, who continue to push their religious crusade south
toward the borders of the kingdom, the human beings of Deverry and
their elven allies realize that the fate of the Northlands lies tangled
with their own. Although the dwarven race holds strong, the island of
Haen Marn has fled and Cerr Cawnen seems doomed. Only the magic of
Dallandra and Valandario and the might of the powerful dragons, Arzosah
and Rori, can reveal the secrets and save the Northlands from conquest.
Katharine Kerr
Katharine Kerr was born in Cleveland, Ohio in 1944 to a family which considered itself British-in-exile far more than American. In 1962, she moved to the San Francisco Bay Area, and has lived there ever since.
In 1979 a friend gave Katherine her first fantasy role-playing game. She became so intrigued with gaming and with the fantasy field that she began writing articles for gaming magazines, and for some time was a contributing editor to ‘Dragon’ magazine, as well as devising gaming modules. Now, however, she is devoting herself exclusively to fiction.
