Overview

For thousands of years demiurges have ruled over the world of Gaea-first the Sky Gods, then the S'hazons. When the S'hazons predict that a comet will strike Gaea and destroy all life, they offer a way of escape to the adepts of the House of Lohenrin. They will open an interdimensional portal to a new world called Tarshan.

Author Information

Bio of Jeanine Berry

Words are Jeanine Berry ' s passion. Perhaps it is genetic since she comes from a family of writers. An avid reader all her life, she started scratching pen to paper at an early age. Once she learned to type, she kept her family awake late at night with the clicking of keys. Eventually, she left home, studied English and journalism and went on to a career as a journalist. The hard-charging, deadline-driven world of journalism left her little time for her own writing. But the desire to put her fantasy worlds down on paper in novel form never left her. When the Internet was born, she was hooked by the idea of ebooks. She dug out one of her old manuscripts from long ago, polished it up and sent it in to an epublisher. Her creative writing career was soon launched. She is now the author of three fantasy novels, and three SF novels, as well as a contributor to two anthologies. Dayspring Destiny, the final book of her Dayspring series, took the 2004 Eppie for best fantasy novel. Jeanine lives in the Chicago area with her husband and two very spoiled Australian Silky Terriers.

Excerpt from: Dayspring Destiny by Jeanine Berry

Elinna fell at last into an exhausted sleep. When she awoke, she knew what she must do. With grim expertise, she steeled her heart and locked shut the doors of emotion. Then she hurried to the palace, determined to speak to Mesor before she could change her mind. Their courtship, barely begun, must end. They must become merely teacher and pupil; she must dedicate her life to the only goal that mattered saving Atlaua.

As thunder clapped and lightening flashed, she told him.

"Nonsense!" Mesor snapped. The blood drained from his face, leaving the scar on his forehead an angry, jagged line. His eyes held shock and betrayal. Had he cared that much in so short a time?

He grabbed her hand. His strong fingers squeezed hers until she winced in pain, their pressure demanding she stay at his side. "You don't know that stopping the comet will take all your time, or the help of every psiborn. You're only starting to explore your Dreams of Knowledge. You could stumble onto the answer tomorrow."

Elinna pulled her hand out of his grip, and he released it, although a muscle in his jaw jumped as he let go.

"I pray I will," she said. "But I can't count on that. If in the end we have to try to move it by brute force of the Power, it will take every psiborn we can find. In the meantime, we need many new Perceptors, trained in the Power, to protect and guard Atlaua."

"And so, what?" The rough baritone of his voice grew bitter as he mimicked her words. "You have no time for love. Perhaps the truth is that you are afraid of what sufficient time might bring."
