The Innkeeper's Song

Amazon.com Review In this Locus Award-winning novel, young Tikat enters a shadow world of magic and mystery as he searches for the lover whose death and resurrection he witnessed. It's a wild ride that sets him on the trail of three cloaked women who are on a mission of their own. "A beautifully written tale of love and loss, set in a world of hard-edged magic." --The New York Times Book Review " A wonderfully astonishing novel... a tour de force." --Washington Post Book World --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title. From Library Journal Three powerful women (each with her own secret past), a stable boy, a weaver's son, and an innkeeper set in motion a series of events that brings each of them face to face with the forces of magic and the workings of fate. Beagle ( The Last Unicorn , LJ 5/15/68; The Folk of the Air , Ballantine, 1987) uses many voices to tell this tale of love and death and what lies beyond both. A finely crafted piece as well as a rich, evocative fantasy, this novel should have broad appeal. Copyright 1993 Reed Business Information, Inc.
