Hi Suzette - it has been solved!!! Khyren is the name of the book. Definitely the one I was originally remembering.

Just a thank you to all the folks that chimed in trying to help me (and others!) find the name of this book. Your diligence was appreciated. And, some good suggestions for alternate reads came up in the process!

I added this book to the authors GR page. There is no plot description to be found anywhere though.

Anyone know what it is about?

Got the book in my mail today. Now for the reading.

I put a request into Barnes and Noble to make this possible as a Nookbook one.

Suzette, none of the bookstores have control over what's offered as an ebook. It's up to the publisher or author. Since Kyyren is fairly old, odds are Baen (the publisher) won't be releasing it as ebook. But when/if the rights revert to the author, it's possible she could choose to release it as an ebook. Your best bet would be writing the publisher or trying to track down the author.

[Suzette]

Barnes and Noble have a link that you use that allows them to tell the publisher that there is interest in a given book.
Some of the books I have done that with. They have later on had them in the store as ebooks. Due to the number of folks showing that interest to have it done as a ebook.
