Description (kind of sucks, for a better one, read the Library Journal or Romantic Times reviews provided in the Product Description)
Imagine a world without color, illuminated by a gray sun ...
An unrequited love...
War... mystery... exultation...
An epic fantasy of unspeakable wonder...
LORDS OF RAINBOW
Imagine a sudden brilliant flash -- an artificial orb ignites, filled with peculiar impossible light...
The nature of this light bears no description. It lingers in dreams, inciting an unrequited love for a goddess.
A corrupt city is shaped like a perfect wheel, and is ruled by a sister and brother, Regent and Regentrix, by perverse desires, and by a secret...
A loyal warrior woman swears to serve a mysterious lord. At the same time, an epic invasion is precipitated by a being of utter darkness, who is the one absolute source of black in a monochrome silver world.
And amid all this, flickers an ancient memory of a phenomenon called Rainbow and of those who had once filled the world with an impossible thing called color...
Lords of Rainbow.
