“A sparkling gem of mythic invention and surprise . . . Frost attracts richly detailed real human individuals and embellishes his multilayered reports with intriguing animals–benevolent sea dragons, trickster foxes, death-eating snakes and capricious gods.”
–Web publishers Weekly, on Shadowbridge
Princess of the renowned shadow-puppeteer Bardsham, Leodora has inherited her father’s skills . . . and his opponents. As well as her administrator–Soter, keeper of her father’s darkest secrets, and a gifted young musician called Diverus, Leodora has journeyed from span to span, her masked performances given under the stage name Jax, earning fame and lot of money.
But Jax’s success may be Leodora’s undoing. Years ago, carrying out a performance by Bardsham, the vengeful god known as Lord Tophet went to a horrific abuse upon the span of Colemaigne and its individuals, a reprisal inflicted unexpectedly or explanation. And as the genius of Jax gives rise to rumors that Bardsham has went back, Lord Tophet calls for notice and dispatches a quintet of fatal killers to learn the truth behind the face mask.
Now, after the cursed span of Colemaigne, where her father achieved his most significant triumph and suffered his bitterest tragedy, Leodora is about to perform the most stunning story of all.
