Valorian's Children

Gabria's family and clan have been massacred in her absence, and her only hope is to assume her dead brother's identity and join a warband -- a deception punishable by death if discovered. With the aid of her intelligent, telepathic horse Hunnuli, she sets out to right the wrongs committed by the ambitious chieftain Lord Medb. Then she finds she must break another law, for Medb is using forbidden sorcery and she will have to use her own powers to thwart him.
