Kerr's vivid portrait of characters caught in a complex web of fate and magic captures the imagination with a realism that few can match. Now, with The Dragon Revenant, Katharine Kerr returns to the Kingdom of Deverry; where the wheels of destiny are turning anew. For years the provinces of Deverry have been in turmoil-and now; agents of the Dark Brotherhood are maneuvering to poison the minds of its people. The conflict escalates with the kidnapping of Rhodry Maelwaedd, heir to the throne of Aberwyn. Intent on rescuing him, his beloved Jill and the elver wizard Salamander infiltrate the distant land of Bardek, where Rhodry is held captive.

Tied to Deverry by obligation and circumstance, the immortal wizard Nevyn begins to see that all of the kingdom's problems can be traced to a single source his ancient enemy, a master of dark magics, backed by a network of evil that stretches across the sea. With this realization, Nevyn understands that he too is being lured away to Bardek, and into a subtle, deadly trap designed especially for him.

Traveling on separate roads, Nevyn, Salamander, Jill, and Rhodry approach a confrontation that could very well break the merciless chains of Fate forged by a vow made four hundred year before. It is a confrontation that could change not only their own lives, but the very destiny of Deverry itself, forever.

A world I won't soon forget. No one does real, live, gritty Celtic fantasy better than Katharine Kerr, Judith Tarr

Convicted of killing of thirteen people with a single curse, he was said to be the heir apparent to the Dark lord, Voldemort.

Now he has escaped, leaving only two clues as to where he might be headed: Harry Potter's defeat of you-Know-Who was Black's downfall as well. And the Azkaban guards heard Black muttering in his sleep, "He's at Hogwarts . . . he's at hogwarts."

Harry Potter isn't safe, not even within the walls of his magical school, surrounded by his friends. Because on top of it all, there may well be a traitor in their midst.

Harry wants to get away from the pernicious Dursleys and go to the International Quidditch Cup with Hermione, Ron, and the Weasleys. He wants to dream about Cho Chang, his crush (and maybe do more than dream). He wants to find out about the rnysterious event that's supposed to take place at Hogwarts this year, an event involving two other rival schools of magic, and a competition that hasn't happened for a hundred years. He wants to be a normal, fourteen-year-old wizard.
Unfortunately for Harry Potter, he's not normal, even by wizarding standards.
And in his case, different can be deadly.
