Publisher's Summary

When an evil witch secretly substitutes her own son for that of a royal heir, she unwittingly creates her own greatest nemesis.

Condemned to a hole-in-the-wall existence at the bottom of society, the true heir must study magic to survive. But when he discovers his own true identity, he learns that to reclaim the throne he must unleash a magic that will destroy his world!

From World Fantasy Award-winner Darrell Schweitzer comes his otherworldly masterpiece, The Shattered Goddess.

Critic Reviews

"Few writers can genuinely touch the quality of nightmare...the fear that formless and almost banal stems from the sleeping mind. John Bellairs did it with The Face in the Frost. And now there is also The Shattered Goddess." (Mary Gentle)

"A powerful fantasy novel...phantasmagoric." (L. Sprague de Camp)
