Publisher's Synopsis
Celsha is a beautiful young cleric, bearing the symbol of the manticore rampant upon her shield. Trained in the healing arts, Celsha is convinced into joining a party heading into the lost holds of Iron Mountain. When the dungeon delve turns into a disaster, Celsha is left alone in the darkness, that is until she meets a real manticore. Intelligent, powerful, and more like a man than a beast, Celsha becomes fascinated by the manticore. But upon discovering one of her friends might be alive, Celsha must make a deal with the beast of legend to save a life. Frightened and entranced in equal measure, Celsha must succumb to the beast's demands or lose a friend. But will she lose herself in the process?
