Description: Annotation Fantasy/Romance: For centuries the Infernal War has been waged by witches and sorcerers to control the Orb of Knowledge. The war must end... Then, at Wintertide, the Hill Raiders attack the village of Cirrus Grove. The sea captain's daughter is raped, and a child conceived. A babe the Captain wants no part of. But someone else does. Bronya, the healer, accepts responsibility of caring for the unborn child. She tends the birth and, in the midst of a maelstrom, takes the babe to her cave. Warded now by the signs and symbols of magick, Bronya keeps the child, Khamsin safe from the Sorcerer. On the eve of Khamsin's eighteenth birthday, however, the Hill Raiders, those who wreaked havoc on her mother, come again. Blaming Khamsin for witchery, for bringing the scourge down upon them, the survivors of Cirrus Grove nearly take her life. The grievously wounded girl is discovered by the enigmatic Tinker. He heals Khamsin and accompanies her on a journey that magick omens have directed her to take. One of them knows the truth. One of them is seeking, just as she is sought. The war for the Orb is about to end. And only love can win it...
