The evil overlord Tashtalon has reigned over Somerlie over 500 years. Then
strange events point Gill to a way to defeat Tashtalon…a magical weapon: the
Sword of Queens. To prevent its use, Tashtalon decreed that any woman wielding a
sword will be put to death…and he enforces that law savagely. Can Gill summon
the courage to find the sword and use it before Tashtalon kills her? Sword of
Queens by Joan Marie Verba: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0098SC634
