A First UK edition paperback in excellent condition for its age. Age tanning the pages and the covers are showing some minor signs of wear with some very faint creasing to the extremities.  Crease at the top right-hand corner of the front cover and bottom left-hand corner of rear cover. Review slip laid in.

Book One of the Gate of Ivory Series.

SYNOPSIS:  “Robbed and stranded on the lovely but dangerous world of Ivory, Pyrene-born Theodora must take her chances among the penny-pinching fortune tellers of the Imperial City. For here, on the one planet in the galaxy where magic is known to exist, its practice is forbidden.

Yet it is Theodora’s skill with the Tarot that first makes her conspicuous to Ran Cormallon, the rich and powerful sorcerer who so desperately needs an apprentice. But once she begins to learn the secret forces that his cards can unleash, Theodora’s talent reveals her not only to the deadliest of the Cormallons’ ancient enemies but also as an accomplice far too valuable to lose…”
