Valanandir’s throat spasms as he tries not to choke.
He spits out a salty mouthful of seawater and grips some nearby rigging one-handed as the ship rocks beneath him.
Under skies devoid of moon or sun, Valanandir fights for his life alongside his Sea Elf crew. But his ship already burns like a funeral pyre in the middle of the storm-tossed ocean.
…And far more than he realizes depends on his survival.
Lose yourself in the thoroughly imagined World of Lasniniar with this first novel in the series by award-winning author, Jacquelyn Smith.
Jacquelyn Smith is a Canadian author from the outskirts of Toronto, Ontario, where apologies are a regular part of most social interactions, and the second ‘T’ in ‘Toronto’ is definitely silent. (Sorry.)
Jacquelyn originally published several of the earlier titles in the Kira Brightwell series under the pen name Kat Irwin before she finally decided to kill Kat off in an effort to eliminate the many awkward questions about having a second identity.
When spending time in the real world, Jacquelyn lives with her husband Mark, and their feline owner Xena, who is definitely a warrior princess.
This is almost an abstract tale, and the start is fairly slow, but the story picks up some speed as it limps along. I really don't understand whether it is supposed to be a metaphor of Christianity or a children's story that became to complicated.
