Haunted

by Alma Alexander

Overview

Ghosts have been turning up in our stories since humans began keeping records. There are the loving ghosts who cling to us because neither the living nor the dead can bear to let go; there are the vengeful ghosts, or those with unfinished business here on our world who are less beneficently inclined. Ghosts can protect, and warn, and hurt.

But mostly ghosts remember. They are the very essence of memory, carrying moments of frozen time with them. And with this they both move and frighten us. There are many kinds of ghosts - ghosts of spirits of the innocent dead, ghosts of horror and regret, ghosts of those yet to be born...

Here are the stories of three of them.

About the Author

I was born on the banks of an ancient river in a country which no longer exists. I began telling stories as a child and never stopped. To date, I have written close to three million words in more than 20 published books. My novel, The Secrets of Jin-shei, has been published in 14 languages. My popular Young Adult Worldweavers series features New World magic and a heroine who is as American as Harry Potter is British. I like books, embroidery, music ranging from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show" to Dvorak's New World Symphony, animals, coffee, chocolate, snow, velvet -- and, in people, kindness, intelligence and an off-the-wall sense of humor. I am a punaholic, a chronic worrier, sentimental and passionate. I am married to a man who wooed me over the Internet and lured me to America, where I am currently owned by a cat.
