Freda Warrington's 'orphan novel' is actually part of the Blackbird series, telling the story of what happened to Ashurek and his love, Silvren, after the end of A Blackbird in Silver Darkness and before A Blackbird in Amber Twilight…

The towers were deep-rooted in the despised under-city where an enslaved people huddled in earth-bound decay.
