Also be sure to check out Secrets of
Silverwind now available. I believe you’ll enjoy its twisted
journey.

Acknowledgements

This book is dedicated to my older brother
Rob. Though in many ways we’re as different as the sun and the
moon, I can think of no finer example of integrity and have always
admired your stubborn instance to always be yourself. You are
probably the most genuine person I know.

I would also like to thank the many others
who continue to help me every step of the way. In particular my
beta readers, especially Ruth and Brandon who (as ever) chose to
give this book, and me, copious amounts of their precious free
time. I thank them for holding nothing back, and for always being
eager with suggestions on how to improve. Even if it means the
manuscript never feels quite finished. Thanks also to Matt and
Carver for being among the first readers to finish reading the
novel and who both provided excellent feedback.

Lastly I want to thank everyone who sent me
e-mails, wrote reviews, and any kind of effort to support and
encourage me. It is a true pleasure writing stories for an audience
like you.
