Synopsis

For those who thrill to the adventure and wonder of The Anteros, here is the book where all the secrets from KINGDOMS OF THE NIGHT are finally, dazzlingly, revealed.  For new initiates, this tale stands alone, entry to a world of intrigue, high drama, derring-do . . . and, most of all, magic!

All of Orissa believed that Rali Emilie Antero, legendary warrior and sorceress extraordinaire, was dead, lost at sea during some grand adventure gone wrong. In fact, Rali was not dead, but left entombed in ice to dream for eternity--until a goddess needed her for one last quest . . .

Novari, a beautiful succubus intent on achieving ultimate power, had swept the world by storm.  All the Anteros had been assassinated--save one : a golden, magical child named Emilie.  Novari had succeeded in taking Orissa.  Now she had only to sieze little Emilie, as well.

She never counted on the return of Rali Antero . . .

About this title

From the Publisher

I got tea bags from the author for the Anteros series--specially made up teabags with tasty herbal tea inside and a mini-reproduction of the cover of one of the books on the paper wrappers. The taste was almost enough to float me away to other worlds all by itself...but where the tea left off, the books took over.

About the Author

Allan Cole is a bestselling author, screenwriter, and former prize-winning newsman who brings a rich background in travel and personal experience to his imaginative work. Raised in Europe and the Far East,  Cole attended thirty-two schools, visited or lived in as many countries, and from an early age made a point of observing everything very closely for future reference. He recalls hearing The Tempest for the first time as a child sitting on an ancient wall in Cyprus--the island Shakespeare had in mind when he wrote the play. Rejecting invitations to become a CIA operative like his father, Cole became an award-winning reporter and newspaper editor who dealt with everything from landmark murder cases to thieving government officials.

Since that time he's written fifteen novels, many of which have become international bestsellers, as well as numerous screen and television dramas. He currently lives on a ranch in Elephant Butte, New Mexico, with Kathryn, his strongest supporter, and "Squeak" the cat who rules writer elves.
