Synopsis ~
Write-up from back of both tradepaper and paperback editions ~
At magical Ithkar Fair, where the devout worship and hucksters trade, few things are as they appear to be, and few of the faithful (and faithless) remain unchanged: A bawd struggles to lose her virtue, a quest almost becomes a death warrant, a fortune-teller predicts ruin – or does he? A flute weaves a spell of magic unknown to the player, a beautiful bird courts a beautiful woman, tricksters are themselves tricked, and the worthy are rewarded – in sometimes surprising fashion.
