A new chapter in the Zania Corthinn series begins!
Zania and Kahri’s children are young adults now, making their own way as traveling healers and teachers. Arathel loves her work and the freedom of her life. When Sharrec Fehr saves her from a would-be kidnapper, Arathel is intrigued by the mystery of the man’s past. And when he asks to join Arathel and her brother Radjann in their travels, she remembers her mother’s advice: Sometimes help can be found in unexpected places. Even sooner than she expects, Arathel finds herself needing Fehr’s help. Can she depend on a stranger, a man compelled by a mysterious binding, to guide and protect her as she starts down a dark road?

About the author
Trina L. Talma
14 books18 followers I have lived all my life in the upper Midwest. I don't know if this has influenced my stories or characters, but it has definitely influenced the settings I use. My characters are likely to be farmers, adventurers or explorers, living in wide-open spaces and often influenced by the land and weather around them.
I grew up in East Grand Forks, MN. My first real taste of writing as work was in high school, where I served for two years as copy editor and one year as editor of the school paper, the Green Crest. My first completed novel, which I rewrote and expanded as The Time of the Wolf (published 2014), was serialized in the school paper during my senior year.
I majored in English at Moorhead State University (now Minnesota State University Moorhead), with an unofficial minor in liberal arts. During my senior year I had a short story, “Galactic Wash,” published in the university's student paper, The Advocate. (They misspelled my first name.)
From 2000 – 2003 I was a contributor and later an editor at the ezine and online writing community Toasted Cheese.
In March 2005, inspired by a friend who had self-published a fantasy novel, I self-published my first novel, Silver and Blood, and a short-story collection, Tellers of Tales. Silver and Blood was the first book in a fantasy series, which continued with River's End (September 2005), The Throne of the Sun (March 2006), Return to Dawn (September 2006) and Dreams of Darkness (March 2007). Cherish the Fire (March 2009) began a young-adult speculative fiction series, and I published a second short-story collection, Unlikely Muses, in 2011. All of my books have been self-published through the online publishing company Lulu. My readership hasn't been large, but it has for the most part loyally followed every installment in the series.
