Story Behind The Book

The third book in a series I originally started writing for my children. As sisters Zandria and Olena explore the land of Empyrean, they meet many fantastical beings. At the insistence of my youngest son, this story includes dinosaurs!

<span style="font-family:verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;line-height:normal;font-size:small;">What is best about this series is that it adds a strong heroine to children's literature. Olena does not sit around waiting for others to rescue her. She actively pursues her own destiny. This is not something we see that often these days in literature.</span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;line-height:normal;font-size:small;">As will all the books in the series, the lushness of the descriptions, be it of landscapes or characters, paints a wonderful picture for the reader, letting us discover new aspects of Miller's world along with Olena.</span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;line-height:normal;font-size:small;">The plot is, in my opinion, the best of the three books. The action starts quickly and keeps up throughout the entire book, so we never feel bored. The strange characters, including a turbaned creature who doesn't speak, add mystery and might even send a chill down the reader's back.</span><br /><span style="font-family:verdana, arial, helvetica, sans-serif;line-height:normal;font-size:small;">This is a wonderful addition to the Empyrean tales, and I can highly recommend it to those of you looking for a little magic in your reading lives.</span>
