OLDER FICTION

The Seer and the Sword

(4) YA The fates of Princess Torina of Archeld and Landen, a former prince of a conquered country who was brought to Archeld as a captive, are tightly entwined. When a murderous despot seizes the throne, Torina and Landen flee the country separately and each becomes a trusted advisor to the high king. The many stock characters and a plot dealing largely with political machinations limit the appeal of this fantasy.
