Описание: When Sarvets world hems her in, she pushes back. Her daughter, Livli, does likewise. The Kaunis Clan Onmibus, Sarvet & Livli, presents both their transcendent stories.
SARVETS WANDERYAR
Running away leads right back home - or does it?
Sarvet walks with a grinding limp, and her mountain culture keeps girls close to home. Worse, her mother emphasizes all the things Sarvet cant do. No matter how gutsy her spirit or bold her defiance, staying put means growing weaker. Yet only boys get wanderyars. Lacking their supplies and training, how can Sarvet escape?
Can dreams - even big dreams - and inner certainty transform impossible barricades into a way out?
LIVLIS GIFT
In Kaunis-spas magical spring, Livli achieves spectacular cures. A born pioneer, she hopes to match new ways for healing with new ways of living. But the Kaunis-sisters fear rapid change. While Livli pushes forward the new, one influential foe champions the old. Home will keep its ancient customs, even if Livli loses everything.
Must surrender spell defeat? Or could letting go harness real power?
PRAISE FOR SARVETS WANDERYAR
...great introduction to the Hammarleedings society that left me craving more. Sarvet is a wonderfully strong female character who you also meet again in Livlis Gift. - reader review
Breezed through Sarvets Wanderyar; delightful I think this is my favourite... - reader review
...its an entrancing story with a character you care about, and desperately want to succeed... At first I saw Paiam as the clear antagonist, but I came to sympathize with her. This makes for a complex interaction between the two characters that rages almost completely in the subtext-very clever on Ney-Grimms part, and very effective... On a side note, one of my favourite things about Ney-Grimms work is her treatment of fantastical creatures...the pegasi seem ethereal...creatures of light and gauze that are somehow the most real things in the world. - Speaking to the Eyes review
PRAISE FOR LIVLIS GIFT
Extremely fascinating and insightful... - reader review
Im enthralled by the world... - reader review
EXCELLENT A thoroughly enjoyable read - reader review
