She saw the knight in the mirror at sunset....
During the wedding festivities of his king, Cyan Dag, a knight of Gloinmere, is sought out by a mysterious bard and told a terrifying tale: that the king has married a false queen - a lie cloaked in ancient and powerful sorcery. Spurred on by his steadfast honor and loyalty, Cyan departs on a dangerous quest to rescue the real queen from her tower prison, to prevent war, and to awaken magic in a land that has lost its way.

Brenden Vetch has a gift. With an innate sense he cannot explain to himself or describe to others, he is able to connect to the agricultural world, nurturing gardens to flourish and instinctively knowing the healing properties each plant and herb has to offer. But Brenden's gift isolates him from people and from becoming part of a community - until the day he receives a personal invitation from the Wizard Od.

I decided that Orion Lake needed to die after the second time he saved my life. Everyone loves Orion Lake. Everyone else, that is. Far as I’m concerned, he can keep his flashy combat magic to himself. I’m not joining his pack of adoring fans. I don’t need help surviving the Scholomance, even if they do. Forget the hordes of monsters and cursed artifacts; I’m probably the most dangerous thing in the place. Just give me a chance and I’ll level mountains and kill untold millions, making myself the dark queen of the world.

The Shadow of the Torturer is the first volume in the four-volume epic, the tale of a young Severian, an apprentice to the Guild of Torturers on the world called Urth, exiled for committing the ultimate sin of his profession - showing mercy towards his victim.
Gene Wolfe's "The Book of the New Sun" is one of speculative fiction's most-honored series. In a 1998 poll, Locus Magazine rated the series behind only "The Lord of the Rings" and The Hobbit as the greatest fantasy work of all time.

An assassin is stalking the streets of Mona's city, preying on magic folk, and it appears that Mona is his next target.

Ombria. It is a city that echoes with the footfalls of sapphire-heeled shoes...that holds its breath as a straw-haired apparition glides through its streets...that sees its dreams-and nightmares-take shape in the drawings of a bastard-heir. It is an enchanted time and place envisioned by World Fantasy Award winner Patricia A. McKillip, acclaimed author of The Tower at Stony Wood....

Best-selling author Patricia A. McKillip (The Riddle-Master of Hed) is one of the most lyrical writers gracing the fantasy genre. With the debut of her newest work, Dreams of Distant Shores is a true ode to her many talents. Within these chapters you will find a youthful artist possessed by both his painting and his muse and seductive travelers from the sea enrapturing distant lovers. The statue of a mermaid comes suddenly to life, and two friends are transfixed by a haunted estate.

Luminous and lyrical
Mckillip's writing is almost impossible to categorize. She wrote incredibly beautiful, mesmerizing and occasionally eerie tales. I continually go back to them, each time finding some new facet to savor.

Ethereal and delightful
This is one of my favorite books by Patricia McKillip. The story is lovely and the narration is excellent. I would love to see even more of her books on Audible! (like The Bell at Sealey Head and Something Rich and Strange for example)

My opinion of this story
I love to read and reread many of Patricia McKillip’s books. To anyone who likes original and beautifully written fantasy this and her other books are wonderful. Her character development is good, i especially like Sel, the probably selkie who relearned her magic and her daughters. She conveys a real feeling for the poverty and need of the islands and the desperation of its leaders. And her language is like poetry. Her books are like jewels, each one complete and full of light. I get so tired of the books that continue to another book and on to another. Copies of Tolkien abound with same old characters in them, the young man, the damsel in distress, the mentor all on some sort of quest. There are so many that are just alike. But her books are each an entity complete, with the exception of the riddlemaster three.

I live her books, but I could not get through this one. The characters all sound the same...the story line is very fractured, ehich in her other books I can follow, but not on the book
