High Sorcery — Andre Norton

The Mistress of Enchantment brews a portion of high sorcery.

Here are some of the ingredients:

CRAIKE, a man hunted in two worlds

MISS RUTHEVAN, whose needles pointed to secret kingdoms

COUNTESS ANA, who called on unnamed gods for justice

ULLY, a piper of Witch World who played for the oldest dancers of all

TAMISAN, the dreamer who found herself the prey of her own dreams....

Together, they cast a spell of wonder.
