In Dust and Light , national bestselling author Carol Berg returned to the world of the award-winning Flesh and Spirit . Now she continues the saga of a man whose past is veiled in shadows....
Ever since the Order of the Equites Cineré stole his memory, his name, and his heart, thinking about the past makes Greenshank’s head ache. After two years of rigorous training, he is almost ready to embrace the mission of the Order—to use selfless magic to heal the troubles of Navronne. But on his first assignment alone, the past comes racing back, threatening to drown him in conspiracy, grief, and murder.
He is Lucian de Remeni—a sorcerer whose magical bents for portraiture and history threaten the safety of the earth and the future of the war-riven kingdom of Navronne. He just can’t remember how or why.
Fighting to unravel the mysteries of his power, Lucian must trace threads of corruption that reach from the Pureblood Registry into the Order itself, the truth hidden two centuries in the past and beyond the boundaries of the world...
Review
Praise for Ash and Silver **
**"With this masterful opening...the story grabs you by the hand, plunging you headfirst into a world of magic and war, where nothing is quite what it seems...Berg is a brilliant biblioanthropologist, a chronicler for the ages, introducing us to a rich world, sharing with us its history, painting it in words, breathing life and soul into it. The writing very much reminded me of Ursula K. LeGuin."—San Francisco Book Review
