Daughter Of The Blood

Description for DAUGHTER OF THE BLOOD by Anne Bishop:

THE ONCE AND FUTURE QUEEN

Seven hundred years ago, a Black Widow witch sees an ancient prophecy come to life in her dazzling web of dreams and visions.

Now the Dark Kingdom readies itself for the arrival of its Queen, a Witch who will wield more power than even the High Lord of Hell himself. But she is still young, still open to influence--and corruption.

Whoever controls the Queen controls the Darkness. Three men--sworn enemies--know that. And they know the power that hides behind the blue eyes of an innocent young girl. And so begins a ruthless game of politics and intrigue, magic and betrayal, where the weapons are hate and love ... and the prize could be terrible beyond imagining....

This is #1 in Black Jewels series.
