Steel and stone

by Ellen Porath

The affair of Kitiara Uth Matar and Tanis Half-Elven begins with a bit of violence. They contend with an ettin that wants to make them a snack; a deposed leader who believes Kitiara is the cause of the ruler's troubles; a vindictive mage who seeks peculiar vengeance; and even Kit's old lover, not there to spark up another romance. They also meet a beautiful magic-user who might be hiding something. This is the tale of the meeting of Tanis and Kitiara, a tale of love, lust, betrayal, and revenge that races through Krynn and into Icereach.
