In book two of this acclaimed fantasy series, a female Sun Mage must answer a distant call for help—and tend to a mysterious threat at home.
Once, men had the magical ability to keep civilization together. Women existed only to serve them. Now the powers to heal the sick and bring fertility to the land have mysteriously transferred to women—and the men are not adjusting easily.
Raeshaldis, the first female Sun Mage in training, must grapple with the efforts of her own family to re-enslave her. Meanwhile, she receives a psychic plea for help from a fellow Crafty woman. But while she ventures out to answer the call, a magic plague descends upon the Yellow City, threatening frined and foe alike.
