Short description
When a young peasant girl is injured while hunting, she meets a strange, magical man who is a member of a despised race – Mujar. Truemen scorn the shape-shifting unmen for their odd, humble ways, and envy their power over the elements. Now a scourge is sweeping the land, armies of mounted warriors who cannot be defeated are wiping out Truemankind without mercy.Extended description
Mujar do not use their powers for good or evil, they simply exist, immortal and apparently purposeless. The mounted warriors are known as the Black Riders, but no one knows where they come from or why they seem bent on exterminating every man, woman and child. Talsy uses her father’s knowledge to trap the Mujar with gold, which has an odd effect on them. Her father intends to throw him in a Pit, from which he will be unable to escape.Talsy does not believe the Mujar deserves such a fate, so she frees him and begs him to take her with him on his journey. He agrees, and they set off across Shamarese, continuing his quest to find an old hermit’s lost son. There is far more at stake than Talsy realises, however, and she has innocently stumbled upon the last free Mujar, who has the power to decide the fate of her race…

I enjoyed the writing and new ideas, but I found the characters very frustrating at times, so I rate this 4/5.
I'm intrigued enough to purchase the next book.

I enjoyed this book but had a hard time with the main female character she keeps deliberatly endangering others for her own reasons not thinking beyond the imediate. Well written and developed as all ways

I enjoyed the author's writing and imagination, but was annoyed by the blatant and oversimplified Christian imagery (salvation and the fundamental unworthiness of men, not the general spiritual message). The book would have benefitted by a race of men more complex than a pack of dogs. I am considering giving book 2 a chance anyway, because I do believe the author is talented, but if it turns into a sermon on how unworthy the masses are compared to the "chosen" it will by my last from this author.

Aside from the Queen's Blade series, this is my favourite series from this author. No one else I know has close to the imagination this author does, and I end up losing sleep because I can't put the book down!
