Product Description

Product Description
A wonderfully evocative fantasy that launches a new British writer.The decadent microcosm that is the palatial home of the House of Memizhon is shocked out of its complacency by the arrival in Myn-Dhiel of two slaves.Not an unusual event in itself,but Lai and Laili are more beautiful,more desirable than anything the Arkhan and Arkhys have ever wanted.The twins are as alike as a boy and girl can be,both devoted to each other and to their goddess,a devotion that is sorely tested by the sacrifices that they are forced to make in order to stay alive.Lai and Laili must be destroyers and redeemers both they regain any kind of freedom.

About the Author
Sarah Ash studied music at Cambridge University and trained as a composer before she found her real metier in words. She now lives and works in Beckenham, Kent.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful read, fantastic!, 30 Nov 2003
This review is from: Moths to a Flame (Paperback)
I picked up this book quite by accident three years ago and as I had a morning free in the Library decided to browse through it! After the first few pages I could not put it down; as far as fantasy books go, this one does the genre proud...since then I have re-read the book several times, and enjoyed it every time! I recommedn it very highly to anyone who likes fantasy with a bit of political intrigue and has an open mind!

5.0 out of 5 stars A Rich Tapestry of Words, 22 Nov 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Moths to a Flame (Paperback)
I picked up this book randomly, but I couldn't put it down until I finished. While dealing with some of fantasy literature's classic motifs - the decadent kingdom, the intolerant religion - it twists them with new, fascinating elements, creating a very original story. Lai and Laili, twins devoted to the Moon Goddess, are enslaved and taken to opulent Myn-Dhiel. There they are forced to change in order to survive, but become themselves the catalysts of change. The theme of change and metamorphosis runs through the book, as does the theme of "moths to a flame" - what we desire may ultimately destroy us. All of this is wrapped in beautiful, magical words. Sarah Ash's musical training shines through as her prose itself has the harmonic qualities of song and poetry. Truly fascinating.
