Book Overview
A girl is sold by her impoverished father to a man who takes her to the Court of the Pomegranate Tree, where she learns to be both courtesan and assassin and joins the group of beauties that form the entourage of the Undying Duke. Calling herself Green, the young woman rises to a position of power in a treacherous world. Lake (Escapement) has created a memorable heroine living in an exotic and sensual setting that draws from many historic cultures. A good choice for most fantasy collections.

Easily the best of the trilogy.
Published by Anon E Maus , 5 years ago
The story is fast paced, and action packed, in a wonderful world of mysticism, brutality, and beauty. The universe Lake has created for the series has a lot of potential for expansion. Hopefully he’ll do more with it, and bring future books more in-line with this one than the two subsequent books.
