The Sharpest Edge

Fifth Millennium #2 / 7
by S. M. Stirling, Shirley Meier
The Sharpest Edge (Fifth Millennium #2) by S. M. Stirling, Shirley Meier
not yet rated

The Sharpest Edge is also known as Saber and Shadow (revised edition, 1992).

In the Fifth Millennium there was no city larger, wealthier or more corrupt than Illizbuah: Queen of the Lannic Ocean, home to the mad immortal God-King of Fehinna, metropolis of the continent of Almerkun. The intrigues of its priests and lords, wizards and merchants and thieves, were ancient and inbred and formal as a dance. Yet two homeless wanderers would set all their plans at naught.

One was tall and red-maned, as ruthlessly honest as her sword. The other was small and dark, a creature of knives and magic and shadows. In Illizbuah they would meet. After that, the city, and the world, would never be the same.
