About the Book
The stunning historical fantasy series that began with the Nebula finalist Ironskin continues in Tina Connolly’s Silverblind
Eighteen years later...
Dorie Rochart has been hiding
her fey side for a long time. Now, finished with University, she plans
to study magical creatures and plants in the wild, bringing
long-forgotten cures to those in need. But when no one will hire a girl
to fight basilisks, she releases her shape-changing fey powers — to
disguise herself as a boy.
While hunting for wyvern eggs, she
saves a young scientist who's about to get steamed by a silvertail — and
finds her childhood friend Tam Grimsby, to whom she hasn't spoken in
seven years. Not since she traded him to the fey. She can't bear to tell him who she really is, but every day grows harder as he comes to trust
her.
The wyverns are being hunted to extinction for the powerful
compounds in their eggs. The fey are dying out as humans grow in power.
Now Tam and Dorie will have to decide which side they will fight for.
And if they end up on opposite sides, can their returning friendship
survive?
