Rese�a del editor:

Thomas, a young English apothecary's apprentice, has been sent to collect rare herbs in Africa and India. But during the perilous voyage he meets an alchemist who has possession of a mysterious powder -- a powder that can restore life to the dead. Thomas determines to discover its source, though the peril to his life and his soul are great."Bijapur (is some) of the most original and fascinating fantasy ... being published today". -- Denver Post"Splendid characters, intriguing historical details, fascinating cultures, and agreeably restrained sorceries: a highly auspicious launch". -- Kirkus Reviews, pointer review, on Goa"This colorful novel brings a lost world convincingly to life, exotic and dangerous, worth exploring for itself even though the final conflict still remains". -- Locus on Bijapur"Dalkey skillfully combines political, historical and herbal intrigues in this richly rewarding middle volume of her fantasy trilogy set in 16th-century India.... The interactions between Dalkey's characters are fascinating and the tale is vastly entertaining". -- Publishers Weekly on Bijapur
