A runaway spell is the most dangerous weapon of all.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Recco misses his cozy lab and well-organized veterinary clinic, but ten years as a Vampire stripped him of any illusions. Life is done handing him everything he wants. He could rail against fate\u2014which never bought him much\u2014or suck it up and keep going. Defeating the Cataclysm broke Vampirism\u2019s hold on him, though. Even better, it threw Zoe square in his path and kicked open the door for him to bond with a wolf.<\/p>\n

When Zoe left Ireland for a visiting professorship in Wyoming, she assumed she\u2019d be home in a year. She didn\u2019t factor in being trapped by the Cataclysm and scratching and clawing for everything from food to air clean enough to breathe. She\u2019s a very different woman now. And not one she likes all that well\u2014or even recognizes some days. A rotten sailor, she never imagined she\u2019d end up on a ship.<\/p>\n

In a world with few choices, evil runs rampant and none of the old rules apply. Darkness stalks the ship. Harsh and ruthless, it blocks them at every turn.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

I’m basically a mountaineer at heart. I remember many hours at my desk where my body may have been stuck inside four walls, but my soul was planning yet one more trip to the backcountry.\u00a0There’s a timeless element to the mountains. They feel like old friends as I visit them, and visit them again. There’s nothing like standing on a remote pass where I’ve been before and seeing that the vista is unchanged. Or on an\u00a0equally\u00a0remote peak. Mountains are the bones of the world. They’ll prevail long after all of us are dust. It feels honest and humbling to share space with them. I hope I’m blessed with many more years to wander the local landscape. The memories are incomparable. They warm me and help me believe there will be something left for our children and their children after them.<\/span><\/p>\n
