Read by Stephen Bel Davies
Tiger is a Sword Dancer, raised a slave in the parched southern deserts and now a skilled warrior for hire, who wears a sand-tiger’s claws around his neck as a symbol of his prowess. Del is a woman from the icy north in search of her long lost brother, taken by slavers five years earlier. She carries a blood-quenched rune-sword, though it takes Tiger some time to realise she’s his equal in the sword dance, though she needs his help to navigate the deadly Punja, the unforgiving crystalline desert. There's a lot of misogyny in Tiger's culture, something which he persobally has to get over. The reader is good, the story sufficiently exciting to keep me listening.
