The inevitable clash between Christian and Saracen in the holy city of Jerusalem becomes a personal war between two immortal lovers as religious fanatics and political ambition conspire to thwart an act of conciliation that would unite two opposing faiths. Set in the alternate, magical 12th-century world of Tarr's `Hound and Falcon' series, this sequel to Alamut, featuring compelling characters and a wealth of historic detail, belongs in most fantasy collections. - Library Journal
