The Healer’s Rune
by Lauricia Matuska
GENRE: Fantasy
BLURB:
Three hundred years after a great war shattered the Council of Races, the warriors of Rüddan have all but eradicated their cousins, the faerie Aethel. In so doing, they decimated the Dryht sages and enslaved mortal Humanity. Now a voice rises above the chaos and calls her people to rebel. Young Sabine, one of the Human slaves, must learn to overcome centuries of lies and prejudice to forge an alliance between four enemy races. But what chance does she stand to overthrow the Rüddan with her dangerous secret, a secret that threatens not only her own life but the existence of all the races on the planet?
EXCERPT
Wiping a tear from her cheek, Sabine stood on tiptoe again. Three guards surrounded Mariel now, shearing away jagged clumps of her long black hair while the captain moved to the front of the dais. “Mariel Brockselle has been tried and found guilty of magic use and conspiring with the Dryht. For these treasons, she is hereby sentenced to death by the Empress of all Kirin Roh. Let this be an example to any who would emulate her.”
“Treason and magic use are easy to claim,” Sabine muttered under her breath, “and almost impossible to disprove. I wonder what she really did.”

If you could have given your characters one piece of advice before the opening pages of the book, what would it be and why?
ReplyDeleteMy advice for Sabine would be to hang in there and not give up. Since I am the creator of the story, I know how the story ends and I know what I have in mind for Sabine. Even in her darkest moments, I know it will end better than she can even hope for, so my advice is to not give up because it's all working out for her good.
DeleteThank you for the opportunity!
