To Faia Rissedote’s dismay, the use of magic in
Arhel has gotten out of control, and even people who
could never use magic before are suddenly building
castles in the air. Unneeded, unwanted, Faia discovers
facts about herself and her past she never suspected.
But when Arhel’s magic dies and civilization is thrown
back to a way of life no one remembers how to manage,
Faia sets out to find the truth and fix the problem...
And discovers that love cannot be captured, only given;
that history lies; and, that the lies history tells hide
truths that always come back to hunt the people who
ignore them.
Holly Lisle has been doing the pro novelist gig since 1992. Prior to that, she was a newspaper ad rep, a sign-painter/commercial artist, the “window girl” at a McDonald’s, a guitar teacher for absolute beginners, a singer at local restaurants, and because all of those together paid starvation wages, she went to nursing school the next year, and two years later was an RN.
For ten years.
She paid off her student loan the same year she got her first three-book contract, and...well...she’s been writing for her supper ever since.
Thirty-some novels and more than a million books in print, a bunch of writing courses, short stories, and poetry, and one perpetually unfinished screenplay later, she’s now made the leap from commercial publishing to publishing herself.
You can find her at HollyLisle.com.
