Kadge Goodfellow is a spy. He is loyal to the goddess Dia, loves Lady Heloniss, and serves his temple. But his friend Mottle from the rival Hectan cult has found the Blue Book, an ancient book of wisecraft. This has spurred on Kadge's leader to send him across the sea to an old desert city to find the Red Book of Power. Meanwhile, Heloniss and Mottle are visited in the pyramid by the unusual young wiche Blackburse.
Soon, however, they are joined by other Hectans fleeing fanatic muddyed. Taking refuge in the pyramid, they are besieged and under constant attack. Meanwhile, Kadge goes into service with a desert tribe and matches wits with the seductive Ina, a wiche from the south also seeking the book. Can Kadge help the tribe overcome their own troubles and win the Red Book? Can it boost the powers of wisecraft and help lift the siege? The Red Book of Wisecraft blends elements of fantasy, science fiction, romance, and the flavor of Shakespeare's dialogue.
It is the second in "The Three Books of Wisecraft" series, which began in The Blue Book of Wisecraft and concludes in The Black Book of Wisecraft.
