Wind from Foreign Sky
by Katya Reimann

Description:
Three hundred years ago, Prince Clarin of Tielmark made a pact with the gods, winning his nation's independence from the old, corrupt Bissanty empire - provided each subsequent prince renewed the pact by marrying a woman of common blood. Now, Tielmark's Chancellor Heiratikus, himself of mixed Bissanty and Tielmaran ancestry, has conceived a vicious plot to break the pact while fulfilling an ancient prophecy that would return this pastoral nation to Bissanty's iron-fisted rule. For his diabolical plan to succeed, he must rely on a forbidden arcane ritual to create a bride of Glamour, forged from the blood and magic of twin sisters. Gaultry and her sister are the unknowing objects of this heinous plot. When she learns of her sister's capture, Gaultry becomes the linchpin upon which her nation's destiny will turn. As she learns to wield powers she hardly suspects she possesses, readers will marvel at the breathtaking adventure that unfolds in a spectacular succession of magical revelations and heartrending turns of fortune.
