The Handbook of Knots by Des Pawson
MAGIC MAKES THE MAN. THEN THE MAN MAKES MAGIC. . . .Two clashing forces drawn into a sorcerous duel: Nebula Award nominee Laura Anne Gilman spins the riveting conclusion to her dramatic (Publishers Weekly) fantasy series of vine, earth, and deceit.
T wo thousand years ago, a demigod split the world between Vinearts and men of power, setting his heirs, the Washers, to guard the balance. But even gods fail, and now the Lands Vin are wracked by rumor, revolt, and inexplicable violence. Vineart Jerzy must track the source, accompanied by the only three people he trusts: a trader crippled by a sea monster, a young woman without a place, and a prince who abandoned his people. They have their enemy's name, and they know his plan. What they don't know is how to stop him. And with unrest increasing daily, Jerzy must delve deeper into forbidden magic, luring his unknown enemy into the open. Because in a world where everyone knows their place, only a former slave is free to act. . . .
Des Pawson's interest in knots dates back to when he was given a book of knots when he was seven years old, and he has studied knots and ropework ever since. Des teaches and performs at boatshows, festivals, museums, and galleries throughout the United States, as well as in the Netherlands, France, and the United States, and has clientele from all over the world.
