Synopsis
In an unnamed city ruled by an aristocratic council, the nobles are in a constant stew of power grabs and social one-upmanship. When any personal or political quarrel gets out of hand, nobles hire swordsmen to fight a duel by proxy. The best of these swordsmen is Richard St. Vier. Richard devotes his entire life to keeping his swords and his skills at their sharpest...and to Alec, a tart-tongued scholar with a mysterious past who enjoys flirting with danger. When Richard duels, his sole focus is on the fight, not what he's fighting about. But when he allows his personal feelings to overpower his professional instincts, he becomes an inadvertent pawn of an intricate political conspiracy.

Publisher's Note
The classic forerunner to The Fall of the Kings now with three bonus stories.

Hailed by critics as “a bravura performance” (Locus) and “witty, sharp-eyed, [and] full of interesting people” (Newsday), this classic melodrama of manners, filled with remarkable plot twists and unexpected humor, takes fantasy to an unprecedented level of elegant writing and scintillating wit. Award-winning author Ellen Kushner has created a world of unforgettable characters whose political ambitions, passionate love affairs, and age-old rivalries collide with deadly results.

Swordspoint

On the treacherous streets of Riverside, a man lives and dies by the sword. Even the nobles on the Hill turn to duels to settle their disputes. Within this elite, dangerous world, Richard St. Vier is the undisputed master, as skilled as he is ruthless--until a death by the sword is met with outrage instead of awe, and the city discovers that the line between hero and villain can be altered in the blink of an eye.
