4 posts | 2 read | 8 to read
A mysterious woman awakens in the heart of a dormant volcano. She comes forth into a brutal ancient world transformed by genocidal pestilence, fierce beauty, and cultural devastation. She has no memory of herself, and she could be anyone mortal woman, demoness lover, last living heir to a long-gone race, or a goddess of destruction. Compelled by the terrifying Karrakaz to search for the mysterious Jade that is the answer to her secret self, she embarks on a journey of timeless wonder. Rediscover this realm of brilliant cruel beauty and seductive immortal ruins, of savage war and grand conquest, of falling stars and silver gods. This 40th anniversary edition of legendary fantastist Tanith Lee's debut novel includes its original introduction by Marion Zimmer Bradley."

I am posting one book per day from my extensive to-be-read collection. No description or reason for wanting to read the book. Some are old and some will be new. Don't judge me - I have a lot of books.

A woman awakes in a dead volcano, no idea who or what she is. A voice tells her she is cursed, and as she flees the mountain erupts. I've bounced off Tanith Lee's works in the past, so I'm happy to report that this was finally the right book at the right time: it's surreal and enchanting. It's a little overexplainy at the end, but for everything that led up to it I'm cutting it some slack. Yes, I'm forty years late to the party but I'm here now.

Looks like i have to take out "The Way of Kings" after all. I tried reading "Words of Radiance" and easily got lost. So, until i can get a copy, I'll be giving this a try
