About this ebook

The Black Jewels Trilogy established Anne Bishop as an author whose “sublime skill...blend[s] the darkly macabre with spine-tingling emotional intensity”(SF Site). Now, the saga continues in this collection that includes four more adventures of Jaenelle and her kindred…
 
Jaenelle is the most powerful Witch ever known, centuries of hopes and dreams made flesh at last. She has forged ties with three of the realm’s mightiest Blood warriors: Saetan, the High Lord of Hell, who trains Jaenelle in magic and adopts her as his daughter; Lucivar, the winged Eyrien warlord who becomes her protector; and the near-immortal Daemon, born to be Witch’s lover. Jaenelle has assumed her rightful place as Queen of the Darkness and restored order and peace to the realms, but at a terrible cost.
 
Collected here are the beguiling stories about the origin of the mystical Jewels, the forbidden passion between Lucivar and a simple hearth witch, the clash between Saetan and a Priestess, and the choice Jaenelle must make, between her magic and happiness with Daemon...

Ratings and reviews

One of those can't put it down books. I have all in paperback, but bought all so I could reread them after the books fell after from over reading. lol

The only "what if?" series I have ever read that takes history's darkest character and makes him likeable. Anne Bishop's writing style is smooth, easy to read, and completely engaging. Her humor is quick and comes at you sideways, making a tense scene extremely... human.

Ms. Bishop you did it again! You have a fabulously creative mind. Great read that fleshed out other areas of the trilogy.
