Frostflower and Windbourne [Paperback]

Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com Review

The swordswoman Thorn has had enough of sorcerers. She has escaped outlawry and found a good warrior job. Then she is assigned the deeply dangerous duty of destroying the magic of a sorcerer named Windbourne who has been unjustly accused of murderer. Now Thorn is an outlaw again, fleeing death with the sorcerer she rescued and searching for her sorceress-friend Frostflower, while vengeful, powerful relatives of the murdered priest-lord seek their destruction.

Melding mystery elements with fantasy, Frostflower and Windbourne is the sequel to the equally entertaining, thoughtful, and well-written Frostflower and Thorn. Other fine fantasies by Phyllis Ann Karr include At Amberleaf Fair and The Idylls of the Queen. --Cynthia Ward --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

This review is from: Frostflower and Windbourne (Wildside Fantasy) (Paperback)

The sequel to FROSTFLOWER AND THORN, opens with a young sorcerer, Windbourne, locked up for murder! Because of her friendship with the sorceress Frostflower, the warrior woman Thorn knows that there's no way a sorceron could commit such a crime, for to commit violence upon another living being causes the sorcerers to lose their power! She takes it upon herself to spring him from the clink and, with the help of Frostflower, the trio set out to clear Windbourne's name. Their new companion, however, is rather sanctimonious and repressed, so when he's not preaching or being holier-than-thou, he's agonising over the dirty dreams he keeps having! Once again, Thorn outlaws herself for another blasted sorceron, and once again, the two friends set out for adventure in the Tanglelands!
