Heroing - Or, How He Wound Down the World
(How He Wound Down the World - When Jiana talks nobody lis...)
How He Wound Down the World - When Jiana talks nobody listens. As far as Prince Alanai is concerned, she has three strikes against her: she's foreign, she employs outlandish fighting techniques, and worst of all, she's a woman! - When Jiana tries to join Alanai's quest for the World's Dream, he dismisses her out of hand. In the wilderness of the barbarous southern lands, beset by magic and monsters, wars and gods, what good can one woman warrior possibly do? Alanai is about to find out...as Jiana sets out on a quest behind the quest -- and discovers the truth about heroes.
