But will Aidan, driven as he is by strange visions and portents, prove the weak link in the ages-old prophecy--the Cheysuli who fails to achieve his foretold destiny? For as Aidan prepares to set out for Erinn to claim his betrothed, he will become the focus of forces out of legend, visited by the ghosts of long-dead kinsmen, and by the Hunter, a mysterious being who may be a Cheysuli god incarnate.Commanded by the Hunter to undertake a quest to claim a series of god-given golden links, Aidan will find himself challenged by the Cheysuli's most deadly foe--Lochiel, the son of Strahan--who will use every trick of Ihlini sorcery to stop Aidan and destroy the promise of the prophecy once and for all.... \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e In \u003ci\u003eA Tapestry of Lions\u003c\/i\u003e Nearly a century has passed since the Prophecy of the Firstborn was set in motion--the generational quest to recreate the magical race which once held sway in the lands ruled by Homana's Mujar. Now, Kellin, heir to Homana's throne, has only to sire an offspring with an Ihlini woman to reach this goal. But Kellin wants nothing of prophecy, nor even of his own magical heritage. Embittered by tragedy, he refuses the sacred \u003ci\u003elir\u003c\/i\u003e-bonding, becoming anathema in the eyes of his Cheysuli kin. But willing participant or not, Kellin provides a very real threat to the Ihlini--the ancient enemies of the Cheysuli people--for should the prophecy be fulfilled, life as the Ihlini know it will end. How can a \u003ci\u003elir\u003c\/i\u003eless warrior ever hope to escape the traps of the Ihlini sorcerers? And how can the prophecy ever be realized when the man born to become its final champion shuns his destined role?","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49614897185041,"sku":"GOR002586875","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ WELL_READ \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49654594371857,"sku":"GOR013416172","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49934137262353,"sku":"CIN0756400104G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":49961875341585,"sku":"CIN0756400104A","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50094816362769,"sku":"GOR003621490","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50325255880977,"sku":"CIN0756400104VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0756400104.jpg?v=1751420286"},{"product_id":"children-of-the-lion-book-jennifer-roberson-9780756400033","title":"Children of the Lion","description":"A sprawling saga of the triumphs--and exile--of a warrior race of shapechangers, the magical odyssey continues in books five and six, together for the first time in one volume...","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"GB \/ VERY_GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49615148417297,"sku":"GOR003061162","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"GB \/ LIKE_NEW \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":49953226916113,"sku":"GOR013822281","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":49999551136017,"sku":"CIN0756400031G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"US \/ WELL_READ \/ SBYB","offer_id":50021993054481,"sku":"CIN0756400031A","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"US \/ VERY_GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50190414414097,"sku":"CIN0756400031VG","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ WELL_READ \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":50624827228433,"sku":"GOR009149023","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false},{"title":"GB \/ GOOD \/ INTERNAL","offer_id":52108725158161,"sku":"GOR007316030","price":0.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0756400031.jpg?v=1751200202"},{"product_id":"legacy-of-the-wolf-book-jennifer-roberson-9780886779979","title":"Legacy of the Wolf","description":"Long out of print, \u003cb\u003eThe Chronicles of the Cheysuli\u003c\/b\u003e is the fantasy epic that launched Jennifer Roberson's best-selling career.
