Reva Brennan is a witch unlike any other. Experience and adversity have made the storyteller Chakliuxa wise and powerful hunter and a man of great respect. But a tender heart ishis weakness. In his village lives the beautiful Aqamdax for whom he yearns,though she is mated to a cruel and dangerous tribesman she does not love. It isChakliux she runs to under a clear, moonlit sky while the village sleeps. Butthere can be no future for them together until a curse upon their people hasbeen transcended. And then there is K'os, the healing woman--maddened andembittered by the outrage she was forced to endure years earlier--outcast andenslaved by the leader of the enemy tribe against whom she has sworn vengeance.To enact her savage and terrible justice, she will use--and destroy--anyone, ifnecessary, including the boy-turned-man she rescued in infancy and raised asher son: Chakliux, the storyteller. Return now to a frozen land in a remarkable time eightycenturies past, when the spirit was tested--and strengthened--by the crueltiesof nature and the great mysteries of life.Winter looms in this place of icysplendor near the top of the world-chilling a heart already frozen by hatredand cold dreams of revenge?
