Baour

the long version

In a small village, a necromancer stands trial. At the center of the universe, the Spider that wove All watches intently. Webs are spun in the courtroom, of magic, of lies, and of scandal. The mage Baour argues that he supersedes no only man's laws, but god's! What he truly wants may only be uncovered bhrough testimony. As strange magics meet strange deaths, can the reality be unmasked? And should it?-- Publisher description.
