See all formats and editions

The fourth book in the Sword-Dancer saga continues the legendary adventures of Tiger and Del, magic wielders and skilled warriors

Accused of murdering a man the Southron tribes believe to be their messiah, but who is actually the slayer of Del’s family, Tiger and Del flee across the deadly Punja desert, hunted by religious zealots and sword-dancer assassins. But evading death by assassins’ blades is only one of the challenges they face. For Tiger’s sword, Samiel, has been possessed by the spirit of the deadly sorcerer Chosa Dei—a wizard out of legend with thepower to unmake the entire world, a master of evil who seeks to mold Tiger into his ultimate weapon of destruction.

Tiger and Del have one hope left—to find and gain the help of Chosa Dei’s equally powerful counterpart and sworn enemy, Shaka Obre. But Shaka Obre has not been seen in the world for hundreds of years, and it may be beyond even the combined magical abilities of Tiger and Del to find this wizard who is their only chance for salvation....

Editorial Reviews

Review

Praise for the Sword Dancer saga:

“Not only a welcome continuation of the adventures of an engaging pair of heroes, but a solid introduction to first-time readers. A good choice for fantasy collections.” —Library Journal

“Jennifer Roberson has such confidence in this series and such knowledge of her characters that she is in the position many story tellers would envy.... A fascinating fantasy novel that works on many levels at once.” —Barnes & Noble Explorations

“An innovator in every aspect.... This is surefire entertainment from an author destined for greatness in the fantasy genre.” —Rave Reviews

“Exciting swordplay, elegant prose, and detailed relationships make this latest sword-and-sorcery fantasy a must-read.” —Romantic Times

“The fragility in [Del and Tiger’s] relationship…is beautifully developed. This relationship between equals, their growing partnership, is even more fascinating than the sword and sorcery adventure which serves as its framework.” —SFRA

“Sword-Dancer shows a quantum leap in storytelling.... [Roberson] continues to create memorable heroines.” —Phoenix Gazette

“[Sword-Maker] has more hairpin turns and slippery twists than a mountain road in a snowstorm.... I can’t wait to read the next book in this surprising and excellent series.” —American Fantasy

This series is masterful. Start at book 📚 one ...duh
WTBS OMG! There is very little to no viewpoints from the bad guy or subplots away from the main characters I love this straightforward simplicity yet it is so well written it is art. Only those whose taste is only in their mouth could dislike Tiger and Del...
In my expert yet humble opinion I've read so many fantasy and science fiction books 📚 over the decades there is a comma in the number ijp lol but frfr ...please forgive my small brag but truly unless you like overly complicated novels with unessential subplots and perspectives you will love this book!!
Enjoy!

Good series. Well written. Jennifer Roberson has created a vivid world with equally vivid characters, whom I enjoyed cheering on.

The Tiger and Dell series by Jennifer Roberson is the kind of series that is good on a rainy day with a good cup of tea and a warm blanket. I only wish they were available for my Kindle instead of paper back. But hey, sometimes the feel of real paper is kind of nostalgic. The to characters are joined at the hips but must survive almost killing each other in one of the books. Their love for each other grows as the series continues into a most interesting relationship with many ups and and downs.

I bought the whole series on Dell and Tiger in paperback. Then when my eyes needed some help I bought the whole series plus the newest one on digital for my Amazon e reader so I could enlarge text size. As long as Roberson will write on Dell and Tiger I will buy.
I think the very paragraphs of the first book in the series will capture your imagination.

Best of the 1 through 4 books. Although one is a close 2nd. This is one of my two favorite series, though this like my 4th or5th read, it doesn't disappoint. Too bad it took a decade for the other 5- 8 to come out.

Chock Full of Edgy Action Goodness

Reviewed in the United States on April 30, 2007

Accused of murdering the man the Southron tribes believed to be their messiah but who was actually a clever, ambitious raider, Del and Tiger flee across the deadly Punja desert, hunted by religious fanatics and sword-dancer assassins. In addition to evading their enemies, Del and Tiger must also find a way to rid Tiger's sword Samiel of the evil sorcerer Chosa Dei who possessed the sword after Tiger killed him. Gradually, Chosa is using his power to gain control of Tiger who would rather die than become the puppet of an insane magician who seeks to unmake the world. As they battle sword-dancers and zealots, Tiger and Del are on a quest to find Chosa's equally powerful brother Shaka Obre. Aimlessly following tribal legends and Tiger's unique magical connection to Chosa, Tiger and Del must stay alive in order to free Tiger from Chosa's power. Roberson has crafted another fine entry in her fantasy series. In many ways, this is a book of healing as Tiger and Del forgive each other for betrayals and hurts and come to an understanding. But Roberson doesn't overlook action; there are many superb, exciting fight scenes and desperate chases through the desert.
