Ziva is a bladesmith who can also apply magic to her weapons - cannot be broken, always hits the target, etc.  She is commissioned by a warlord to make a weapon and Ziva accidentally magics the weapon to have long range striking and reveals the secrets of the victims to the holder of the sword.  She realizes it is too powerful and runs of with her sister, a librarian and a mercenary to try and hide the sword.  The story was ok but not enough to interest me into reading the rest of the series.
