Publisher's Synopsis
Are you ready to dive back into the world of Bryanae? A Lesson for the Cyclops brings back fan-favorite character D'Arbignal, the charming and handsome swashbuckler who first captured our hearts in Shara and the Haunted Village.
In this fantasy novella, we follow the lonely and miserable existence of Maria, a woman horribly disfigured and living in a traveling circus freak show. But when D'Arbignal stumbles into the circus, wounded and feverish, Maria sees a glimmer of hope. As D'Arbignal recovers and stays on at the circus, a friendship blooms between the two. However, the cruelty and jealousy of others, including the wife of the circus's Master Fencer, threatens to tear them apart. Can Maria find the strength to fight for a future filled with love and acceptance, with D'Arbignal by her side? Filled with wit, sexual tension, and a heartwarming message about the true meaning of beauty, A Lesson for the Cyclops is a must-read for fans of fantasy and romance. Author Ryk E. Spoor praised the book saying, "This is a story of what beauty means, of what simple acts can do to change the course of a life. It flows effortlessly from our first meeting with the Cyclops to the wonderful, heartwarming ending of the story-which is, itself, clearly the beginning of something grander," and author Connie J. Jasperson says, "A terribly disfigured woman whose pain and suffering is handled with compassion by the author, a circus with many wonderful minor characters, jealousy, romance and revenge-all combine to make this novella true classic. I must confess, I am a bit in love with D'Arbignal and I am now champing at the bit to get my hands on the next tale of my favorite swordsman."
