false 661318 3 <B> The Secrets of the Shadow-Men</B></P><P>Magic? It's for the rich, the powerful...the Archmage and his elite wizards and cloud-masters. </P><P>Livak is not among them. She haunts the back taverns of the realm, careful to appear neither rich nor poor, neither tall nor short . . . neither man nor woman. Obscurity is her protection, thievery her livelihood, and gambling her weakness. </P><P>Alas, some bets are hard to resist. Particularly when they offer a chance to board a ship for Hadrumal, the fabled city of the Archmage. So Livak follows a minor wizard, Shiv, in an attempt to turn a rune or two, never dreaming that the stolen tankard she wants to sell contains the secrets of an ancient magic far more powerful, and infinitely darker, than any mortal mage's spells.</P> 647393 1999 The Thief's Gamble (First Tale of Einarinn) total:107|5:15|4:39|3:34|2:13|1:6| 107 365 170 10 4 1 false false Fri Oct 09 21:39:59 -0700 2009 Fri Oct 09 21:43:56 -0700 2009
