Sharp of mind and instinct; with poise and grace and power – Eve's Daughters are a match for any opponent. Whether seeking out a worthy test or assailed by brave (but foolish) foes, she is determined and cunning, and will not fail.
Here are fifteen tales from across the ages; full of prowess both martial and magical, from an array of unique voices.
When jostling for power and position, take care not to plot your honour or soul away. Far too many highly placed lords and queens have sacrificed everything that matters along the way.

I thoroughly enjoy Simon Brett’s writing. In fact, his Decluttering Mysteries series is a must-have, with the protagonist, Ellen, being one of my favourite characters – see my reviews of The Clutter Corpse, An Untidy Death and Waste of a Life and A Messy Murder. I also have fun reading The Fethering Mysteries, set in a village just a few miles from where I live, featuring investigative neighbours, Carole and Jude – see my reviews of Death on the Downs, The Liar in the Library, The Killer in the Choir, Guilt at the Garage and Death in the Dressing Room. I’ve also read a couple of the Mrs Pargeter series – Mrs Pargeter’s Public Relations, and Mrs Pargeter’s Patio, so when I saw this re-release pop up on the Netgalley dashboard, I immediately requested a copy.

I am a fan of Snyder’s books, as she writes with a bouncy energy that I always enjoy. See my reviews of Poison Study, Scent of Magic and Taste of Darkness and my thoughts on the first her science fiction trilogy Navigating the Stars and Chasing the Shadows. So I was delighted when Himself discovered this sand and sorcery tale, The Eyes of Tamburah and bought it for me.
