Bound by oath to each other and to the Goddess, the swordswoman Tarma and the wizard Kethry begin a joint career as mercenaries in the constant struggle for justice in a land where demons come in human and not-so-human forms. The author of the "Heroes of Valdemar" trilogy begins a new series involving a pair of likeable, savvy heroines. Sword and sorcery with warmth and humor make this a story that will appeal to most fantasy fans. JC

I didn't enjoy this and its companion novel as much as some of her other work, but it still tells a good story.
Classic Valedemar adventure about the sword-sworn, women wariors & mages.

Oathbound is an interesting fantasy set in Mercedes Lackeys "Valdemar" universe. The characters are very original although the plot can sometimes be almost steriotypically fantasy.
