The Soprano Sorceress, the first novel

in L. E. Modesitt, Jr.'s fantastic Spellsong Cycle, now in trade

paperback for the first time.

Anna Marshall

wishes she could be anywhere but Ames, Iowa, and anything but a singer

and music instructor at Iowa State University. She gets far more than

she expected when she is magically transoported to the world of Erde.

On

Erde, Anna is no longer just a professional singer, she is a sorceress,

potentially the strongest in the whole world. In this world, song is

magic, and a wrong note can mean death to a sorcerer. Because Anna has

trained for a lifetime to reach the level where she won't miss a note

even under the worst conditions, she can sing more powerfully and

precisely than anyone else.

Anna's power does not

go unnoticed. The moment she arrives, she becomes a target: both the

political entities, who fear the unknown power she represents, and the

sexist men of Erde, who fear a powerful woman, try to kill her. Merely

to survive, Anna must learn enough song-magic and enough about Erde not

only to ensure her survival, but to create a new life for herself.
