Divided against Yourselves (Spell Weaver)
Description
<h2>Taliesin Weaver thought that he had saved himself and his friends when he defeated the witch Ceridwen. He was wrong.</h2><h3><i>He always thought of evil as embodied in external threats that he could overcome in combat. Soon he will discover that the worst evil has been inside of him all along....</i></h3><p>Tal’s girlfriend is in a coma for which he holds himself responsible. A close friend, suffering from a past-life memory trauma similar to Tal's, is getting worse, not better. Morgan Le Fay is still lurking around and has an agenda Tal can’t figure out. Supernatural interruptions in his life are becoming more frequent, not less so, despite his expectations. In fact, Tal learns that something about his unique nature amplifies otherworldly forces in ways he never imagined were possible, ways that place at risk everyone close to him.</p><p>Tal and his allies must face everything from dead armies to dragons. As soon as they overcome one menace, another one is waiting for them. More people are depending on Tal than ever; he carries burdens few adults could face, let alone a sixteen-year-old like himself. Yet somehow Tal at first manages to handle everything the universe throws at him.</p><p>What Tal can’t handle is the discovery that a best friend, almost a brother, betrayed him, damaging Tal’s life beyond repair. For the first time, Tal feels a darkness within him, a darkness which he can only barely control...assuming he wants to. He’s no longer sure. Maybe there is something to be said for revenge, and even more to be said for taking what he wants. After all, he has the power...</p><p> </p><h2><u>Can Tal stop himself before he destroys everyone he has sworn he will protect? Scroll up to buy a copy and find out!</u></h2>

Reviews
AMBASADORA has a lot to say about the human spirit, and it says it well.<br />--Mike Resnick, Nebula and Hugo Award-winning author<br /><br /><span>With
an anthropologist's eye for world building and an engaging fast-paced
style, Miller hurtles her characters through a dystopian labyrinth in
which hollow beauty is revered and love a virtual crime.<br /></span>--Christopher Paul Carey, THE SONG OF KWASIN<br /><br />Beautifully vibrant and intricately textured, Heidi Ruby Miller's
AMBASADORA explores the value of true humanity, the limitless power of
desire and the triumph of the individual soul. Miller's characters blaze
with life and lust and depth, and her world is a dichotomy of the
glamorously sensual and the brutally dangerous. Amidst edge-of-the-seat
action, Miller effortlessly incorporates the conflicts of the modern
woman inherent in upholding feminist sensibility. AMBASADORA is a
banquet of sumptuous words, a truly exciting adventure that fans of
science fiction are sure to enjoy.<br />--Mary SanGiovanni, author of THE HOLLOWER and THRALL
