Tor Books A Cavern of Black Ice (Sword of Shadows (Paperback))
This opens the Sword of Shadows trilogy from J.V. Jones, whose debut novel was <I>The Baker's Boy</I> (1995). <I>A Cavern of Black Ice</I> is set in a land divided between small warring clans of hunters and more sophisticated southern cities whose lords covet the clan territories.<p>Young clansman Raif has a touch of old blood magic that guides his arrows to the heart. Bad times come when a hunting party that includes his father and clan chief is wiped out by supernaturally aided attack: Raif's open suspicion of the brutal new leader eventually drives him into exile. Meanwhile Iss, overlord of Spire Vanis city, keeps a chained sorcerer whose powers he channels by revolting means and has unexplained but horrifying plans for his foster daughter Ash--herself an unwilling focus of dreaded forces.<p>Raif and Ash find themselves fleeing together through wintry, hostile clanlands, pursued by Iss's vilest henchmen, seeking the dubious goal of the <I>Cavern of Black Ice</I>. What lifts this far above routine quest fantasy is Jones' deft characterisation, relentless intensity and unsparing depiction of pain and slow-healing injury. She has a flair for memorably horrid images. Here a sorcerer gloats over one of his nastier tricks: A man could not fight when his corneas were snapped from his eyes like badges from a chest.<p>This hefty volume has over 800 pages but the narrative grips hard once it's gained momentum, and the pages turn increasingly fast. Book two, <I>A Fortress of Grey Ice</I> is coming soon. --<I>David Langford</I>
