Lois McMaster BujoldBeguilement (The Sharing Knife #1) New York; Eos; 2006; 0061137588 / 9780061137587; First Edition; Hardcover; New; New Jacket; 0061137588 Young Fawn Bluefield has fled her family's farm hop-ing to find work in the city of Glassforge. Uncertain about her future and the troubles she carries, Fawn stops for a drink of water at a roadside inn, where she encounters a patrol of Lakewalkers, enigmatic soldier-sorcerers from the woodland culture to the north. Fawn knows the stories about the Lake-walkers: they are necromancers; they practice black sorcery; they have no permanent homes and own only the clothes they wear and the weapons-mysterious knives made of human bone-they carry. What she does not know is that the Lakewalkers, as a whole, are engaged in a perilous campaign against inhuman and immortal magical entities known as ''malices,'' creatures that suck the life out of all they encounter, and turn men and animals into their minions.; KB002015; Price:
