    <![CDATA[Troubled young Fawn Bluefield seeks a life beyond her family's farm. But en route to the city, she encounters a patrol of Lakewalkers, nomadic soldier-sorcerers from the northern woodlands. Feared necromancers armed with mysterious knives made of human bone, they wage a secret, ongoing war against the scourge of the &quot;malices&quot;, immortal entities that draw the life out of their victims, enslaving human and animal alike.<br/><br/>It is Dag - a Lakewalker patroller weighed down by past sorrows and onerous present responsibilities - who must come to Fawn's aid when she is taken captive by a malice. They prevail at a devastating cost - unexpectedly binding their fates as they embark upon a remarkable journey into danger and delight, prejudice and partnership... and perhaps even love.]]>

    <body><![CDATA[I'll admit that I am a bit put off by the relationship between Dag &amp; Fawn, but I am trying to get past that dislike. I am enjoying the universe quite a lot &amp; do want to read the 2nd book (and 3rd, and 4th, if that one comes together nicely), so I decided on 4 stars instead of the 3 I am tempted to g...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/74515733">more...</a>]]></body>
