All the magic and mystery of fabled India is woven into these marvelous tales of seven strange nights. For that vast land which many have conquered and none have subdued is the home of ten thousand gods and a hundred thousand demons -- and the teeming races that dwell on its shrouded plains and in its marbled cities have kept their mystic secrets. Only the vivid imagination of Tanith Lee, who has been rightly called "Princess Royal of Heroic Fantasy," could penetrate the veiled nights of India's lore. In "Tamastara," she delights the mind and seasons -- with scented curry -- the imagination of the West. Here are hidden gods and demonic possession; here are were-beasts and subterranean terrors; here are beings transformed and souls reborn; here is terror; and here is wonder. World Horror Grand Master Tanith Lee, winner of the World Fantasy Award and British Fantasy Award, is at her best in this book.

He came to the Honey Garden looking for Cyrion. He was a man in grave danger, convinced only one man alive could help him. A man he had heard about in song and story. A man practically everyone knew something about. A man he had never met. CYRION Some said he was the stolen son of a western king, raised by nomads in the desert. A freelance swordsman, a sorcerer, a master of disguise, some said he attracted bizarre, uncanny events as some persons attract misfortune. He with hair like the sky of earnest sunrise, his fair complexion, his whiplash reactions and quicksilver elegance was like a being from another world. A legend. A myth. But was he real? And was he for hire?
