Elizabeth A. Lynn won the World Fantasy Award for Watchtower,
volume one in a breathtaking trilogy that would establish her as one of
speculative fiction's most exciting voices. Tornor Keep is the legendary tower that guards
the winter end of a summer land. But when Tornor is overrun by raiders, a
young prince is the tower's last hope in an enchanting story of a time
far removed from ours and of a land alive with warriors, lovers, war,
and honor. Watchtower
is frequently included on lists of feminist and gay SFF. It does deal
with an underlying homoerotic tension between the prince and his
soldier, and the other two main characters are of ambiguous gender.
