Description
The blind commoner Ratslava has neither beauty nor a gift—only a stolen sorcerous tuning flute. With it, Ratslava weaves songs that captivate the human mind—and because of it she lands in trouble: she becomes part of the tribute demanded by a cunning winged serpent.
Once, it was a man, but now it guards treasures, burns cities, and does not allow its captives to survive to the next year. Its peace is protected by a formidable warrior—the commander of a stone horde—whose name thunders from the southern lowlands to the northern ice. And while the caravan with tribute moves along the mountain passes, Ratslava thinks of how to save herself.
Meanwhile, the exiled young prince Hortim wants to free from the dragon’s clutches his sister, the proud princess Malika, but in searching for allies he suffers one failure after another. The road leads Hortim to distant fjords, where he unexpectedly finds what can help him in the battles ahead.
