Extended description

"Exciting, complex and richly textured, with a world you'll believe and a protagonist you have to cheer for -- Silky is wonderful."

Holly Lisle (Quote from original 1998 Embiid Publishing release.)

Captured as a child and sold into heartless slavery, life has robbed Silky of his magical abilities and left him with no expectations of a better life -- until his own act of bravery delivers him into the hands of a powerful Lord of the Land.

His troubles are far from over since Lord Reed is out of favor with the King and danger threatens at any mischance. Working with Lord Reed starts him along a path that will lead to power, danger and heartbreak -- and a future the young slave boy could never have imagined.

Review by: ACWinOH on Sep. 18, 2012 :
I love this series. A young slave puts his life on the line and is rewarded by being purchased by a man with anti-slavery leanings. And the adventure begins. Up and down and around. I didn't want it to end! I'm hoping the author will let us know what became of Jami. This must be read in order!

Review by: Mikaela Lind on June 20, 2011 :
I bought this when the author ran a Memorial weekend sale, dropping the price to 0.99. A bargain, honestly, considering that the book is 500 pages. The plot felt a bit slow at the beginning, but that could be because this is an YAish fantasy. The world felt solid, with a couple of interesting twists. One of the things I liked most, was the fact that there was a parliament, remiscent of how it was in the 20th century Europe. In fact, a couple of times it felt like I was reading a Regency novel- with magic, and no romance.

Review by: CJ Cristtize on May 02, 2011 :
great read for those who love fantasy.

this young mans journey through from slavery lands him into more trouble and fortune than he could ever imagine.
his struggle to do what is right and stay alive grabs the reader and holds you until the very end of the wild ride that is--Silky.
