Sherman, Delia Through A Brazen Mirror (Ace Fantasy Special)
Ace January 1, 1989 0-441-89687-1 / 9780441896875 Paperback Very Good
When it first appeared in print in mass market in 1989, Sherman's (The Porc elain Dove) debut novel, a queer fantasy, won a John W. Campbell Award nomi nation. No wonder: Sherman's grasp of setting, language and human behavior snare the reader deeply into the story of a widowed woman's search for peac e and survival. The handsome king in this tale has a taste for the strappin g young men around him. The gentle maidens swoon over a quiet and romantica lly somber youth, who is, in fact, a woman in disguise. And the sorceress t hat bedevils the kingdom of Albia grows queasy at the thought of being touc hed by another man after her reluctant submission to the sorcerer who train ed her. Is this a ribald escapade of explicit sex? Hardly. Sherman's deft t ouch reveals her characters' desires in a subtle yet unapologetic manner. S he presents not the typical sword-and-sorcery fantasy, but a tale that take s a realistic--and captivating--look at medieval times.
