Unwinding the Spiral
About this ebook
Wave has escaped the program for teens called by the wrong god—but her anger at the world has only grown stronger. Set on becoming Heredour’s most powerful waterkin, Wave’s life implodes when a star crashes to her feet and an ancient curse is reborn.
Jessandra is heir to one of Heredour’s many thrones, but she hasn’t been called by any of the gods. Terrified that something is wrong with her, she flees her home and her doomed betrothal.
When Wave and Jessandra meet, they forge an unlikely alliance as they try to stay ahead of their enemies. People from all over the country are drawn into their vortex as the lies underpinning their society begin to unravel. When they try to leave Heredour, Jessandra falls prey to the High King’s wizards.
Angry and afraid, Wave discovers the South Claw—a land lost to the ravages of a legend—and meets the ancient creatures who reveal the true origins of her curse. Wave knows she must finally accept her power and confront the wizards, but can she master her emotions in time to save Jessandra?
About the author
Fantasy is storytelling with the beguiling power to transform the impossible into the imaginable, and to reveal our own “real” world in a fresh and truth-bearing light.’ - Leonard S Marcus
My daily grind involves content writing and knowledge management for a large organisation. When I’m not attached to my work computer, I like to squeeze our three cats (much to their chagrin), engage in linguistic wrestling matches with my partner or roll around on my yoga mat. A degree in writing and publishing and a diploma in yoga teaching remind me that I chose to quantify my passions with expensive pieces of paper, but I have no regrets about either one.
Fantasy captured my heart when I was young, and it serves as the majority of what I read and write. Let’s throw in a good dash of Gabriel Garcia Marquez, a sprinkle of Jonathan Safran Foer and a pinch of Lewis Carroll and we’ve made a meal fit for my queendom.
