Bio: Sarah Zettel has already proven herself a masterful new voice in science fiction, winning the Locus Award for Best First SF Novel with Reclamation (1996), and chosen as runner-up for the Philip K. Dick Award for Best Paperback Original SF Novel with Fool's War (1997). These gave but an inkling of the talent revealed in The Sorcerer's Treason, a powerful brew of politics, magics, and emotional turmoil.
