About this listen
He was Tiger, born of the desert winds, raised as a slave and winning his freedom by weaving a special kind of magic with a warrior's skill. Now he was an almost legendary sword-dancer, ready to take on any challenge - if the price was right…or if the woman pretty enough.
She was Del, born of ice and storm, trained by the greatest of Northern sword masters. Now, her ritual training completed and steeped in the special magic of her own rune sword, she had come South in search of the young brother stolen five years before.
But even Del could not master all the dangers of the deadly Punja alone. And meeting Del, Tiger could not turn back from the most intriguing challenge he'd ever faced - the challenge of a magical, mysterious sword-dancer of the North…
©1986 Jennifer Roberson O'Green (P)2013 Audible Inc.Tiger is a Sword Dancer, raised a slave in the parched southern deserts and now a skilled warrior for hire, who wears a sand-tiger's claws around his neck as a symbol of his prowess. Del is a woman from the icy north in search of her long lost brother, taken by slavers five years earlier. She carries a blood-quenched rune-sword. It takes Tiger some time to realise she's his equal in the sword dance, though she needs his help to navigate the deadly Punja, the unforgiving crystalline desert. There's a lot of misogyny in Tiger's culture, something which he persobally has to get over. The reader is good, the story sufficiently exciting to keep me listening.
