by Debra Litton (Author)
In the forest Falmora lives an ancient race. Their small size brings peril from even smaller animals; yet the greater threat is distrust and prejudice among kinsmen. Will they hold by the old ways of the Great One or the false laws of Havar? When Fendun breaks taboo by calling out Andreno's full name and is banished, passions flare. For Andreno, fearing to break an even graver taboo, will not grant forgiveness. Meanwhile, Fendun struggles to survive, shadowed by the forest girl, Allialónae, adept at weapons and living with nature. Overall looms a mysterious watcher, Angara, shaped by dire acts and enduring hate-is he friend or foe? Finally, Tanéha, a young woman of rare insight, hears the great night bird's cry and urges the Falmorans to cease their quarrels and unite. Will they heed her warning and triumph over the evil one, Havar?
Following the dramatic climax of Falmora, turn to Debra Litton's Six Stories-variously humorous, fanciful and poignant-aimed to engage readers young and old. ***** "Litton crafts her tales with a fine edge of literary and cross-cultural reflection as the characters grow and change...keeps the relationships believable...the stories replete with secrets and quests..." - D. Donovan, Sr. Reviewer, Midwest Book Review "Debra Litton's stories are disarmingly clever balancing acts. Things aren't quite as they seem; what's cozily familiar is apt to turn eerily strange, even fantastic. Somehow these stories manage to be both forthright and sly, a charming combination." - Cassandra Phillips (The Passion Trap and Plastic Ocean) "Falmora is a delightful exercise in world-making, in which tiny humans live, love, and make war. The plot follows the overturning of a harsh religion and revenge for a lost generation by young people whose marginalization has made them uniquely capable of leadership. The six stories are each little jewels, featuring animals, humans, and part-humans...characters and plot twists that left me laughing or stunned with surprise..." - Barbara A Kerr, Distinguished Professor, Kansas University (Smart Girls; Smart Boys; and Psychology of Freedom)Pay with
