The Eagle and the Nightingales
by Mercedes Lackey
LET THE KING BE KING! Why is the High King of the Human kingdoms not
doing his job -- and thereby allowing the Church to fill the power
vacuum in the human lands of Alanda? This is a matter of some concern
to Nightingale and her friends: the Church is becoming ever more
overtly hostile to non-human sentients (of which there are several
species in Alanda) as well as to anything that it does not at least
indirectly control, such as gypsies and Free Bards. To discover just
what is going on, she will join forces with T'fyrr, a birdman with
the visage of a raptor and the voice of an angelic choir. And before
the King -- and through him the gypsies, Free Bards and non-humans of
the twenty kingdoms -- is saved they, the Eagle and the Nightingale,
will have become if not quite lovers then far more than friends...
Special note: This book is third in the Bardic Voices series. The
other two books are _The Lark and the Wren_, and _The Robin and the
Kestrel_. This book is complete within itself, and can be read
