Moon Called

de Andre Norton

Thora was happily living a life of peace and contentment - until river pirates laid waste to her village and people. She had been destined from birth to serve the "Lady" goddess of her people due to a birthmark. Her training for her advancement was curtailed by the raid which sent her fleeing, alone except for her dog, Korn, into the wilderness. From there she is drawn into the old fight of evil vs good where battle was conducted by the magic powers of her day and even technology from the far past. This book is never boring nor lacking in mystery and adventure.
