Produktbeschreibung

In the centre of the bier lay Ignarius in a simple white robe. ... A silver coronet was his only adornment. No king could have looked more regal or dignified. ... It was hard to believe so much evil existed within him.
"Touch him!" Mirabell hissed into Esmé's ear. ... The contact sent shudders of revulsion right through her. ... She found it impossible to believe living flesh could be so cold.
Mirabell whispered again: "We're going to drain the warmth from your body to warm himtransfer the beat of your heart to hisdrive the breath from your lungs to make him breathe again."
Esmé felt her heart lurch in shock. Did Mirabell mean what she thought? She turned to look at the sorceressand the glint of relish in Mirabell's eyes told her the answer. Horror flooded through her. Its frigid touch seemed to turn her blood to ice.

Mirabell has captured the white unicorn and all thirteen dragons and also stolen the Godking's treasure. Now she has snatched the Princess of Lazaronia. For it seems that only the life in Esmé's body can bring the wizard out of his eternal sleep. But the sorceress's evil experiment means certain death for the Princess ...

Autorenporträt

Laraine Anne Barker has always enjoyed telling stories. As a child, when playing with dolls with her younger sisters became boring, she would make up stories featuring the dolls. She also remembers how she and her sisters wrote stories into exercise books and even illustrated them, using crayons to colour them because they found that rubbing on the crayon pictures gave them a shine similar to that of glossy colour pictures in magazines. Laraine submitted her first book (for adults) to a publisher at about the age of 21 and received a very kind rejection letter in which the editor suggested the story could be rewritten for young readers. She regrets she didn't keep the rejection and follow up on the advice. She didn't start writing fantasy for young readers until 1986. After many rewritings the book started then became The Obsidian Quest (published under the Hard Shell imprint of Mundania Press). The Obsidian Quest was a finalist in The Dream Realm Awards 2001 and was followed by Lord of Obsidian and The Third Age of Obsidian, also published under the Hard Shell imprint of Mundania Press. The Mark Willoughby series was started in 1992. Silvranja of the Silver Forest was short-listed (one of three) in 1998 for a major New Zealand prize, The Tom Fitzgibbon Memorial Award.
