Never trust an elf, a thief, or a woman. Shadow is all three... Shadow, a light-hearted (and light-fingered) elven thief, returns to her homeland after several centuries' absence only to find that a great human trade city has grown up next to the forest in which she was born. Now the elves and the humans maintain an uneasy alliance, but when Shadow steals a magical bracelet, she finds herself caught in the middle of a plot that may tear the city-and the alliance-apart forever.
About the Author
Anne Logston has been steadily building a body of work that has earned a unique place in fantasy fiction. With the novel Shadow, she created a fascinating medieval world filled with magic, humor, grit and a feisty, unforgettable heroine, Shadow--an elvan thief who returned in the novels Shadow Hunt and Shadow Dance. The adventures of Shadow's niece, Jaellyn--born of royal and elvan blood--are vividly portrayed in the thrilling novels Dagger's Edge and Dagger's Point. And her powerful fantasy epics Greendaughter and Wild Blood take readers deeper into Logston's fully drawn world--generations before Shadow was born. Her new novel, Guardian's Key, is her most ambitious work to date, a magical journey of self- discovery that opens new doors of the imagination.
