Moon witch, spider king
(Large Print)

At the center of this fantastically inventive story is Sogolon, a fearless and resourceful woman who remembers. Mocked and bettered as a child, she is drawn into life as a servant at the royal court, where she learns that power is the ultimate goal. It's there that she comes to know Keme, a royal scout, and learns to harness her rage and becomes the Moon Witch. As teh Moon Witch, Sogolon is a match for anyone, includeing the Aesi, chancellor to the king, and Tracker a mercenary she traveled with in Black Leopard, Red Wolf. As Moon Witch, Spider King unfolds, it becomes clear that Sogolon sees the search for the boy at the center of Black Leopard, Red Wolf very differently than Tracker does. And her own story is so much more: She confronts new adversaries, suffers unexpected joy and unberarble loss, and comes to realize that truth is a matter of opinion and that to trust a man is to risk losing a part of oneself. --,Publisher's description.
