Alyx, assassin and thief -- meet her in palaces and back alleys, on the frozen wastes of a distant planet
Since the time of the ancient Phoenicians, Alyx has courted danger like a lover, sweeping through centuries of intrigue, passion and plunder.
Venture with her to the wicked city of Ourdh, to rescue an innocent heiress whose fortune flames a murderous lust. Escape to adventure on pirate-infested seas when she signs on with the ruthless Blackbeard. Plunge into battle as Alyx attacks the cunning Barbarian who traps her in murder and blackmail. Journey 4,000 years to a future world, where her cunning and courage save stranded wayfarers from planetary war.
But be warned--for the right price, Alyx will serve the Devil himself!
