Phoenix Quest

About the Book

The blacksmith’s quest for a phoenix feather and the hand of the princess seemed simple enough at fi rst. He possessed the ruby necklace and had the wizard’s spells to help him climb from commoner to prince. Despite his confi dence, it was a long way to Egypt, and he was ill prepared for the strange world that waited beyond the confi nes of the island. There was a dark side that challenged his reason, tested his metal, and then there was Lilith.
