My next Pick and Mix read was Jennifer Roberson's Sword-Dancer. It was rather a dark read than I expected because slavery and misogyny are a big part of the setting. Sandtiger is a mercenary, called sword-dancers in this world. He's one of the best. Then Del, a gorgeous, exotic Northern woman comes looking for him and Tiger agrees to be her guied through the desert. Del is looking for his younger brother who has kidnapped five years ago. Tiger thinks she can't succeed and is only interested in getting her to bed.
The desert setting was interesting but the way Tiger constantly puts down Del got on my nerves quickly.
