The Mirror Of Her Dreams: Stephen Donaldson

Book I of Mordants Need. Terisa Morgan had been planning to spend another evening alone in her apartment when without warning, he appeared in her mirror. Not as a reflection - he was in the mirror. At once the mirror shattered soundlessly and then a young man lay on her living floor, babbling a story about 'Mordant's need' - a strange kingdom in dire trouble. He wanted her to return with him to save his world. She didn't understand what he was talking about. She was a secretary - not a woman who saved worlds. Yet his eyes were full of light and laughter, appeals and promises that she accepted the invitation and changed her life forever. Cover art by Michael Whelan
