In the stunning second novel of the Dark Star Trilogy, Sogolon the Moon Witch tells her own story: of her life, how she gained her power, and what happened in the search for a missing child.

At the centre of this startling, fantastically inventive novel is Sogolon, a fearless and resourceful woman who remembers. Mocked and battered as a child, she is drawn into life as a servant at the royal court, where she learns that power is the ultimate goal. It's there that she comes to know Keme, a royal scout, and because of him she learns to harness her rage and her passion, her hate and her vengeance, and becomes the Moon Witch.

As the Moon Witch, Sogolon is a match for anyone, including the Aesi, the cunning chancellor to the king, and Tracker, a mercenary she travelled with in "Black Leopard, Red Wolf".

As "Moon Witch, Spider King" unfolds, it becomes clear that Sogolon sees the search for a mysterious boy at the centre of "Black Leopard, Red Wolf" very differently to Tracker. And her own story is so much more that that: here she confronts new adversaries, suffers both unexpected joy and unbearable loss, and over the course of her 177 years comes to realize that truth is a matter of opinion and that to trust a man is to risk losing a part of oneself.

By turns sweeping and intimate, epic and human, an drawing from African myth and mythology, "Moon Witch, Spider King" is a brilliant fantasy - the gripping story of a woman who will risk everything to live life on her terms. (Verlagstext)
