Moirin Trilogy
Jacqueline Carey · 3 novels · 2009–2011
Jacqueline Carey's third Kushiel's Legacy trilogy shifts its focus from Terre d'Ange to Alba (a fantasy Britain) and follows Moirin, descended from a nearly-vanished tribe of shapeshifting magicians and marked from birth by two foreign gods she barely understands. Naamah's Kiss, Naamah's Curse, and Naamah's Blessing send her from her mother's wilderness home to Terre d'Ange and onward across the world - through the courts of a fantasy China, Mongolia, and beyond - in pursuit of a destiny tied to the goddess of desire. It stands apart from the earlier Phèdre and Imriel trilogies while sharing their world.
