Power's Shadow
Marta, Black Kath's daughter, is a witch on a mission. Unless she learns the secrets of the Seven Laws of Power, she will remain in bondage to the cruel divinity called Amaet for all eternity. Yet now someone else also seeks the Laws of Power, someone who believes that Marta is the key to finding them, and will stop at nothing to claim them for herself. Marta's only chance of success — and staying alive — depends on a thief, a decidedly not-reformed pirate, and a sword-maiden with a remarkably bad attitude. Frankly, the odds are not good. Marta knows that. It's what she doesn't know that just might save her.
