The Chronicles of Mavin Manyshaped

A TRILOGY: This edition comprises 3 books by Sheri S. Tepper: The Song of Mavin Manyshaped, The Flight of Mavin Manyshaped, and The Search of Mavin Manyshaped. For Mavin, coming of age as a shape-shifter is both exhilarating and terrifying. Recklessly headstrong, she is to become notorious in the lands of the True Game. With her brother, she leaves their home - a place of slavery and fear - only to have the boy's powers of beguilement lead them into danger. When she is rescued by the Wizard Himaggery, the shape-shifter and man of magic makes a vow. When 20 years have come and gone, they will meet again. But Himaggery has vanished, leaving only a letter of love behind for Mavin to find. If he were dead, she would know it; sorcerers could trace the scent of his trail, necromancers could raise his bones from the dust. But he has disappeared - beyond the power of wizardry. And so, the search of Mavin Manyshaped begins... "A plot of many switches, eccentric and developed characters, and a setting in a wonder-filled fantasy world." Science fiction at its best.
