Although she leads an overprotected life with the two old hags, Lilune knows she possesses a special gift. When she 'calls' the musician, Lir, to her prison-like castle, she knows she must avail herself of the opportunity to escape and explore the world. But travelling south of the castle, Lilune and Lir realize that they aren't alone - for an ancient, infectious evil accompanies them, which instils terror in everyone they meet. Lir dislikes arrogant Lilune, but finds himself intrigued by her and the source of the evil. Is it within Lilune, or does it come from a deeper source? When the pair become separated, he carries on searching for her. Finally, Lilune returns to her castle in despair, believing that she must be imprisoned to protect the world from the evil within her. But Lir follows her, and discovers that the root of the evil lies deep beneath the castle . . . First published in 1978 by Macmillan London Limited.

Industry Reviews

"1 'Tanith Lee restores one's faith in fiction as the expression of imagination and original though.' THE GUARDIAN 2 LAW OF THE WOLF TOWER 'The fresh, first person diary captures the confusion and immediacy of adolescence... Tanith Lee creates alternative societies vividly and sets them in astonishingly visual landscapes.' THE GUARDIAN 3 'A feast for fans of fantasy. For those long winter nights by the fire, this will make compulsive reading.' THE BOOKSELLER
