Althea and her onetime sea mate Brashen resolve to liberate the liveship--but their plan may prove more dangerous than leaving the Vivacia in Kennit's ambitious grasp. \n \nImaginative and compelling.--Library Journal \n \nDon't miss the magic of the Liveship Traders Trilogy: \nSHIP OF MAGIC - MAD SHIP - SHIP OF DESTINY\n
