After her Celtic kin proved too big a bunch of bastards to bother with, Rowan sought solace among witches.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/strong>The first book in a magic-laced, fast-paced fantasy trilogy. With dragons.<\/strong><\/p>\n

After the Breaking, not much was left. I assumed it was a case of magic gone bad\u2014until I discovered my goddess mother had broken the world. She didn\u2019t like it that I\u2019d turned my back on the pantheon. My long tenure among witches rubbed salt into the wound.<\/p>\n

After a confrontation where Mommy Dearest fessed up\u2014and lacked the decency to bat an eyelash about the widespread destruction she\u2019d caused\u2014I was digesting what to do next when a dragon showed up.<\/p>\n

Yes. A dragon.<\/p>\n

The beast didn\u2019t talk with me or anything, but it flew overhead wreaking havoc on a goblin horde. Witches are old souls with kind hearts, but they\u2019re not particularly strong magically, so I was grateful for the help.<\/p>\n

And suspicious as hell. Why a dragon? Why here and why now? More importantly, why was he\u2014she?\u2014helping me? Part of me didn\u2019t want to know, and another part was certain I\u2019d find out anyway.<\/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
