A world once destroyed by a godwar and now healing since the arrival of the young gods who imprisoned the hellgod. A world seething with danger, intrigue, and wild magic, its lands scarred by the wars waged by both men and Gods. These are the lands that Chimquar the Lionhawk travels. A woman who passes for a man. A priest. A parent. A soldier. Fighting against that which would devour her simply for chosing to live her life on its own terms. Chimquar the Lionhawk first appeared in the World Fantasy Award Winning Anthology Amazons! Edited by Jessica Amanda Salmonson. Now, in this collected volume of her tales, find out why Chimquar has been called the most complex character to exist in Heroic Fantasy and one of the first female-passing-for-male protagonist to exist in the genre.
