Pick up Facing the Gray now! Here’s what early readers of the series are saying: “This fast-paced second book of the Sun-Blessed Trilogy is really hard to put down. I loved seeing how Tavi’s gifts evolve!” -Kim Decker “The magic system is beautiful and completely original!”-Stephanie, Goodreads reviewer “The Sun-Blessed Trilogy was one of the most exciting, breathtaking, and heart-stopping series I’ve ever read! Readers of all ages will enjoy this wonderful series.” -Madysun Waldrop “Face it! You won’t be able to put these books down.” -Brenda Elliott Author Interview: What makes this new world unique? In the Sun-Blessed Trilogy, the magical system is tied to childbirth. I love the miracle of birth, and tying magic to such an incredible event felt natural and appropriate. Some of the heroes in this series are midwives, who pass magic on to sun-blessed children and later train these same children to use their gifts. What audiences is the series appropriate for? This trilogy is appropriate for teen and adult audiences. There is no cursing, explicit sexual content, or gory violence. (The series contains childbirth scenes, details of puberty, non-gory murder scenes, and non-explicit references to adultery). I wanted to write a series my own kids could read, and I’m happy to provide an exciting, quality story that a wide variety of ages will enjoy.
