Description

From the back cover: "Deep in the Tower of the Moon, among the Hills of Aniak, dwelt the beautiful and sensuous Tara. And with Chanthu the Sorcerer, Zalric the metal man, and Khaldur the great golden cat as her tutors, she grew wise and swift, skilled and strong. The slim, sweet lines of her silk-smooth body concealed strengths like coiled steel springs. Though she could lea like a leopard, run like the wind, swim the foaming torrents, and ride, fight, and swear like a man - Tara was all woman!"

Cover Description

A warrior woman with long red hair prepares to draw a longbow. She wears a grey bikini, a knife strapped to her thigh, calf-high boots, a necklace and earrings made of sharp teeth, and a quiver of arrows on her back. Behind her, a beast that seems to be a cross of a lion's body with a bison's horns roars.
