Publisher Description

It began as a witch-hunt. But the Master Inquisitor's plans to eliminate all traces of female power in the world have expanded to crushing the Sylvalan barons who oppose him-and to destroying the wellspring of magic in the Mother's Hills.

"Best book out of the three. Everything that the second book was leading up to, works well here. However, random characters appeared that made it quite confusing for me to read. I had to go back to the second book to recheck to see if they existed there (sometimes they did...). However, same with most of Anne Bishop's other books, self sacrificing strong female character. Not much variety, however, it worked here, and the ending made sense. Which is always pleasant."

    " This is book three of the Tir Alainn Trilogy, by Anne Bishop. This is an excellent series, who heros are most females, but with whom almost anyone can identify. Bishop is an outstanding author, and like McCaffrey, another of my favorites. Hightly recommend this book and the trilogy to anyone. "
