Spell of the Witch World

"Across the sea to the west of Estcarp, the land of Wise Women, is High Hallack, a rugged land ruled by the Dale lords and inhabited in places by remnants of the Old Ones who still practice their magic when the need arises. In 'Dragon Scale Silver' Elys and Elyn, twin sister and brother, have been separated by the Alizon invasion. Elys rescues Elyn from the spell of a bewitched female spirit who has caught him in a trap. 'Dream Smith' draws us into the world of a maimed silversmith and a crippled heiress who together discover that the foreign silver is a source of power and enchantment for both of them. 'Amber Out of Quayth' describes the adventures of Ismay, an unwanted daughter who has been forced to marry a dealer in amber. When she learns that her husband is not the true owner of the amber, she frees Broc, the rightful owner, and turns her husband's evil spells against him, locking him forever in the amber he stole."--Jacket front flap.
