Synopsis

The children of the Abode know nothing of the past, future, family or home. Their world is a cold house with a bare yard, surrounded by mists. The children work, eat (never enough), sleep, and obey. Until one of them doesn’t obey. Although she believes they will kill her, a girl named Fel runs into the mists, desperate to escape. Her return, alive and well, to rescue her friend Molly, changes everything. The fight to defeat the evil force that governs the Abode ensues. Meanwhile, the children begin to discover their true identities.A meeting of Oliver Twist and the How to Train Your Dragon series, this mystery adventure can be enjoyed by readers of any age.

About this title

About the Author:

I've always been afraid of the dark. As a child, I was certain I knew where the monsters in my closet hid, so I didn't go in there after sunset. Nothing much has changed over the years. I don't have the same closet anymore, but there are always new closets, shower curtains hiding whatever's lurking in the tub, dark hallways, noises in the night, and, well, darkness. Maybe that's why I've always been drawn to fantasy. All of that braving of the darkness in spite of monsters, evil wizards, huge dark chasms ... and the heroes almost always start out as regular folks (Harry and Hermione, Frodo, Katniss Everdeen, Buffy). Fantasy stories scare me, thrill me, teach me, and give me hope. Most importantly they entertain me. I hope The Abode will entertain you as well. Perhaps, if you're like me, some of your fear of the dark will dissipate after reading this book. I hope so. So, find your wingsong, keep your dragon fire burning, and enjoy!
