Beyond the Veil
Author: Janet Morris
Back cover blurb:
In the thrilling sequel to Beyond Sanctuary, Tempus leads his
Stepsons on a deadly journey into the heart of evil, to combat an
unholy alliance of magic led by Roxane and her tame demons. The
battle will be met in the witch-plagued city of Tyse, darker and
more dangerous than Sanctuary itself, and heroes are welcome there
only if they are able to face the horrifying unknown beyond Wizardwall...
Now, in the second full-length novel inspired by Thieves' World,
author Janet Morris takes her character Tempus beyond Sanctuary,
beyond the darkest shadows of imagination...
Beyond the Veil
Another back cover blurb:
Here is the second full-length novel from the notorious Thieves'
World universe. Set in Tyse, a town so mean and magic-ridden as
to make Sanctuary seem like a singles' bar, Beyond the Veil features
Tempus -Thieves' World's most popular and misunderstood character
- and introduces Kama, the Riddler's daughter, as well as Ranke's
deservedly infamous shock troops, the Third Commando.
And another blurb:
When a Rankan messenger is killed in Tyse, Randal, the Stepson's
pet Wizard, must read the dead man's mind...Together with Tempus's
long lost daughter and his Elemental lover Jihan, they must venture
beyond accursed Wizardwall itself to battle the Mygdonian Alliance
and Roxane's Nisibisi witchcraft...
