![]() ![]() The dragons come to fear her unplumbed power, though, and cast her out. As the child Shana grows, she develops prodigious sorcerous powers-so strong that it seems she might be the fabled Elvenbane, powerful enough to free the enslaved humans from their elven oppressors. But the child, born in Serina's dying moments, is rescued by a friendly dragon and raised with her own draconic brood. When Serina Daeth, favorite concubine of the Elf-Lord Dyran, conceives a half-blood child by him, she flees his wrath into the desert, where she quickly succumbs. A collaborative effort from fantasy grande dame Norton and relative newcomer Lackey (the paperback Magic's Price), this tale of magic and intrigue offers a mixture of standard genre elements and an engaging plot. ![]()
