WHAT'S NEW IN THE STORES===========================================

THE WARRIOR RETURNS by Allan Cole. Hardcover. (SS)

In THE FAR KINGDOMS, a walk-on role made a great impression: Rali, sister
of adventurer Amalric Antero. Her part of the grand Antero adventure was
told in THE WARRIOR'S TALE, but that was the last we heard of her, except
for a mention (in KINGDOMS OF THE NIGHT) of her having been lost at sea.
Well, she wasn't--not exactly. And THE WARRIOR RETURNS tells what really
happened to her when all thought she was lost forever. Because as long as
any Antero was still alive, the family and their city-state of Orissa
would not be safe from powerful spirits eager for even more power. The
editor found this book great fun: not only does it bring back a really
memorable heroine for even more harrowing adventures, but it introduces a
beguiling little girl and manages to tie up any loose ends left hanging
after the first three books of the series.

KINGDOMS OF THE NIGHT by Allan Cole and Chris Bunch. Paperback. (SS)

The problem with THE FAR KINGDOMS was that the rich and magical--and far
from trouble-free--land discovered and thought to be the legendary Far
Kingdoms by Amalric Antero and Janos Greycloak turned out _not_ to be the
Far Kingdoms at all. The _real_ Far Kingdoms lay still farther away,
forming the last bastion between humankind and terrible evil from another
universe. Amalric didn't discover this until he was an old man, when
Janos' great-granddaughter Janela came to him with a challenge: come with
him to find the Kingdoms of the Night, the _real_ Far Kingdoms. Great
fun, a la THE FAR KINGDOMS, with an even scarier evil threatening all
existence...
