Tigana
 Tigana is the internationally celebrated epic of a beleaguered country struggling to be free; of a people so cursed by the dark sorceries of the tyrant king Brandin that even the very name of their once beautiful home cannot be spoken or remembered. But, years after their homeland's devastation, a handful of men and women set in motion a dangerous crusade—to overthrow their conquerors and bring back to the world the lost brightness of an obliterated name: Tigana.

A Song For Arbonne
 Arbonne and Gorhaut—two lands as different as the sun and the shadowed moon. In the south, the olive trees and vineyards of Arbonne flourish, as the troubadours fill the air with the music of love and desire. To the north, the history of Gorhaut has been forged with blood and fire, and now a degenerate king and his ruthless advisor seek to quench a thirst for conquest by sweeping down upon Arbonne. |
The Lions of Al-Rassan
 Hauntingly evocative of medieval Spain, The Lions of Al-Rassan is an exhilarating story of love, divided loyalties, and what happens to men and women when passionate beliefs conspire to remake—or destroy—a world. |
The Sarantine Mosaic Book I
Sailing to Sarantium
 Sarantium is the golden city: holy to the faithful, exalted by the poets, jewel of the world and heart of an empire. The artisan Caius Crispus accepts a mysterious summons from the emperor, but before he can reach Sarantium, Caius must pass through a land of pagan ritual and mortal danger. |
The Sarantine Mosaic Book II
Lord of Emperors
 The Western mosaicist Crispin has arrived in the golden city of Sarantium and sets out to confront the challenges of his art high on the scaffolding of destiny—but he soon discovers that no man can withdraw from the dangerous intrigues of court and city, or forget that the presence of the half-world is always close by. To the Imperial City there also comes another voyager, Rustem of Kerakek, a physician from the east who finds that his own fate is not simply that of a healer. |
The Last Light of the Sun
 A powerful epic that evokes the Celtic, Anglo-Saxon, and Norse cultures of a thousand years ago. For generations, the Erlings of Vinmark have taken their dragon-prowed ships across the seas, raiding the lands of the Cyngael and Anglcyn peoples, leaving fire and death behind. But times change, and in a tale woven with consummate artistry, people of all three cultures find the threads of their lives unexpectedly entwined. |
Beyond This Dark House
 For those familiar with Kay’s fiction, the poems in Beyond This Dark House will resonate for their linguistic and emotional nuances and their mythologi-cal allusions, echoing and illuminating themes of his fiction. But readers of contemporary poetry will also be captivated by the exquisite craft and power of these poems. Some are ironic and austere, slyly tracing the interplay of writer and world, present and past; others are sensual, even erotic, charting the mercurial but abiding nature of passion-in love, in language, in history. |
