4.0 out of 5 stars
Worth finding!, July 9, 2000
This review is from: To the High Redoubt (Paperback)
While not a Saint Germain novel, this has some of the same themes: how to act rationally in an irrational time, honor, alchemy, being an outsider. It's primary characters are a discharged Polish army captain Arkady who was fighting the Turks in 1524 who buys a beautiful blind Indian-Tibetan-Chinese -- could you tell I was unclear -- slave Suratta who is able to fight her enemies in shared visions during tantric sex. They travel from Hungary to Kyrgyztan and perhaps into China to battle the bad guy who took her sight, killed her family, and wants to plunge the world into darkness. It's a good vs. evil quest book, but it's more and better too.

This review is from: To the High Redoubt (Paperback)
This is a great book! The characters have a great deal of depth and personality. I have been looking for this book ever since I read it at the library. Unfortunately it's out of print, but it's worth pursuing regardless.
