book of the acclaimed epic fantasy the Great Alta Saga Grown to young
womanhood in the mountain region of the Dales and trained for combat
by the all-female followers of the goddess Great Alta, Jenna

warrior queen who has long been prophesied. Orphaned three times while
still a small child, the now-teenage Jenna is compelled to lend her
support and skills to the Dales’ rightful king and his brother,
Carum, who holds her heart, for the reign of evil usurper Lord Kalas
threatens the future of every worshipper of Alta. But Jenna does not
ride alone. Whenever darkness falls, she and her companions—a young
priestess in training and an aging warrior—are joined by Skada,
white-haired Jenna’s dark sister, who shares her destiny and her
soul. But even their combined powers may not be enough to defeat the
entrenched malevolence that means to destroy everything and everyone
they hold dear. A finalist for the Nebula Award for best novel,

romance, and fantasy. Interspersed with the myths and poetry the story
engendered, it is a brilliantly imaginative creation of a world, a
culture, and their enduring lore.
