JANE BIGELOW Talisman, by Jane M. H. Bigelow Be careful what you ask for. You might get it in this world where a gem thief struggles with the gratitude of Kossinli, Goddess of Mirth; a caravan journey across The Wastes; a priestess of Kossinli; a wizard; and a donkey. Layla was getting by as a gem thief in dusty Charransar before she broke her late unlamented teacher's first rule: never steal from a temple. The emerald eye of Sarinsat, God of Order, was so beautiful, though! Layla soon found she'd made enemies and friends she never expected. It wasn't always clear which was more dangerous.
