The national bestselling Black Jewels saga continues

Theran Grayhaven is the last of his line, desperate to restore the land of Dena Nehele. But first he needs to find a Queen who remembers the Blood's code of honor and lives by the Old Ways.

Languishing in the Shadow Realm, Lady Cassidy is a Queen without a court. But when she is chosen to rule Dena Nehele, she must convince bitter men to serve once again.©2009 Bertrice Small; (P)2009 Penguin

Critic reviews

Praise for The Shadow Queen

“A strong romantic fantasy.”—Alternative Worlds

“Anne Bishop does not disappoint. I have not read a book of hers that did not immediately captivate me and draw me immediately back into her world...[She] weaves her spell so well...Her characters seem so real and engaging.”—SF Revu

“Surges with spellcraft and engaging romance.”—Publishers Weekly

“Black Jewel fans won’t want to miss this installment which offers a different look on the realms of the Blood.”—Dear Author

“Superb.”—Specusphere

“In this stand-alone novel set in the evocative Black Jewels world, Bishop tackles surviving various horrors head-on...It’s a difficult subject, but one that Bishop writes about sensitively, with compassion and without blinking or pulling punches.”—RT Book Reviews
