Summary
Green is back in Copper
Downs. Purchased from her father in sunny Selistan when
she was four years old, she was harshly raised to be a
courtesan, companion, and bedmate of the Immortal Duke of
Copper Downs. But Green rebelled. Green killed the
Duke, and many others, and won her freedom. Yet she is still
claimed by the gods and goddesses of her world, and they still
require her service. Their demands are greater than any
duke’s could have been.Godslayers have come to the Stone
Coast, magicians whose cult is dedicated to destroying the many
gods of Green’s world. In the turmoil following the
Immortal Duke’s murder, Green made a God out of her power
and her memories. Now the gods turn to her to protect them
from the Slayers.Jay Lake brings us an epic fantasy not "in the
tradition of Tolkien," but, instead, sensual, ominous, shot
through with the sweat of fear and the intoxication of
power.
