The night bird

de Catherine Asaro

For centuries the women of Aronsdale have lived freely among the green and misted valleys. Creatures of exotic beauty and sensuality, they possess powerful skills of enchantment ... and young Allegro is no different. But her life--and Aronsdale's independence--is threatened when Jazid nomads invade, carrying Allegro into the desert as a prized trophy ... or worse.--From publisher description.
