Alamut

Alamut: Book 1

Judith Tarr

Return to a time when magic ruled the world, when people lived and died in the name of honor and risked all in the honor of love. Alamut is the tale of two great and timeless beings: Prince Aidan, born of a royal human father and an immortal sorceress...and the Lady Morgiana, Aidan's enemy and perhaps the only woman he can truly love.

In the years between the Second and Third Crusades, Prince Aidan travels to the Kingdom of Jerusalem to visit his mortal nephew, only to discover him slain at the command of the powerful Sinan.

Aidan swears to avenge the murder--but he has not foreseen Morgiana, an immortal slave-assassin whose powers are greater eve than his own. Nor could he have known that she alone would speak to those sacred places of his heart....

Prepare to embark on the adventure of a lifetime, in a tale of treachery and magic, a saga woven within the tapestry of the Middle Ages and told as only Judith Tarr can.

The Dagger and the Cross

Alamut: Book 2

Judith Tarr

In the time of the Crusades, in a world at war, a prince of immortal lineage and a spirit of fire who was once an Assassin prepare to celebrate a royal wedding. But he is Christian and she is Muslim, and there are those who hate them not only for their disparate faiths but for their power and magic.

From the holy city of Jerusalem to the bitter battlefield of Hattin, from Saladin's Damascus to the Crusaders' fortress of Acre, the tides of war sweep the lovers apart. Even magic might not be enough to save them, or the kingdom to which they have both pledged fealty.
