SummaryThe novels of New York Times bestselling author Barbara
Hambly have broken new ground in the realm of fantasy. With
a sweeping cast of characters whose powers are both awesome
and heartachingly limited, the Dragon series is built
around the touching relationship between a husband and wife
separated by a flood of violence and chaos.
Condemned to die for consorting with demons, dragonslayer
Lord John Aversin sits in a dank prison cell and calculates
the odds of escape, while smelling the smoke of the
executioners' pyres. In Winterlands, Jenny Waynest pays a
heavy price for choosing to be human, mourning the loss of
her husband, Lord John, and the dangers that engulf her
family. But in a season of the Dragon Star, strange
miracles are about to transpire.
As a pitched battle between the Hellspawn and the human
rages, Jenny and John will be reunited in a city under
siege. And there, they will have one last chance to
understand all that has happened to them and why, who their
true enemies and true allies are, and most of all, for what
magical purpose each has been chosen.
A vast adventure and a powerful mystery teeming with demons
and witches, gnomes and dragons, Dragonstar explores
profound issues of faith, fate, and technology--while
obscuring long held boundaries between good and evil, love
and hate, what is human and what is fantastic. With this
glorious finale to a breathtaking series, Barbara Hambly
establishes herself as one of the most visionary and
inventive storytellers in the field of fantasy fiction
today.
