About this book
From Guild House to lord's court, the Free Amazons ply their trade, serving as mercenaries wherever there is need, banding together in comradeship, setting themselves apart from the everyday rules of Darkovan society, earning their freedom with blade and deed, and freely giving shelter and assistance to any woman in search of a safe haven.From a fledgling matrix circle formed by Renunciates to a Free Amazon hired to protect Comyn Lord Varzil from an assassin's deadly threat to Marion's own recounting of a seemingly insurmountable conflict between Camilla and Rafaella--well-remembered characters from her magnificent novel, The Shattered Chain--here are twenty-two brand new tales about those dauntless Darkovan heroines beloved by the countless readers who are always eager to return for new adventures on the world of the Bloody Sun.Introduction (Renunciates of Darkover) • essay by Marion Zimmer BradleyStrife • short story by Chel AveryAmazon Fragment (Excerpt) • short fiction by Marion Zimmer BradleyBroken Vows • short story by Annette RodriguezIf Only Banshees Could See • novelette by Janet R.
