Description:
Queen
Of The Unknown
The tales tell
of three sisters, daughters of the high king. The eldest, a valiant
warrior-woman, heir to the kingdom. The youngest, the sweet beauty with her
Prince Charming. No one says much about the middle princess, Andromeda. Andi,
the other one.
Andi doesn't mind
being invisible. She enjoys the company of her horse more than court, and she
has a way of blending into the shadows. Until the day she meets a strange man
riding, who keeps company with wolves and ravens, who rules a land of
shapeshifters and demons. A country she'd thought was no more than
legend--until he claims her as its queen.
In a moment
everything changes: Her father, the wise king, becomes a warlord, suspicious
and strategic. Whispers call her dead mother a traitor and a witch. Andi
doesn't know if her own instincts can be trusted, as visions appear to her and
her body begins to rebel.
For Andi, the
time to learn her true nature has come. . .
Upcoming
books in the trilogy are The Tears of the Rose and The Talon of the Hawk.

Character Interview with Andromeda
1. Tell us a little about yourself - your
name, where you grew up?
My name is Andromeda, which is a mouthful
and awfully dramatic, so everyone calls me Andi.
2. Who was your high school crush?
I didn’t go to high school. My sisters and
I had tutors – though I usually skipped out as much as I could get away with,
to go riding.
3. What is the most romantic gesture you
have ever done for someone?
I don’t know if it counts as romance, but I
did agree to marry Rayfe, a man I barely knew. He’s better at the romantic
gestures, in truth.
4. What's your ideal Valentine's Day date
and/or gift?
Riding on the beach with Rayfe.
5. If you could have just one wish to
change something about yourself, what would it be?
I wish I was stronger and smarter.
6. What is the simple most important thing
needed for a relationship to last?
Regard for each other’s strengths and
happiness.
7. What's the strangest thing that has ever
happened to you?
Well, watching my blood change into birds
and fly away was the first strangest thing that happened to me.
8. Who should play you in a film?
Mila Kunis probably comes close.
9. As a child, what did you want to be when
you grew up?
I always knew I’d have to serve the Twelve
Kingdoms as a Princess of the Realm, but my sister Ursula is the Heir. I guess
I figured I’d be her advisor or something. Of course, that was before I knew
about Rayfe and the contract with the Tala.
10. Say the first thing that comes to mind
when I say these five words, and be honest:
1. Snow? Lovely – though I have unpleasant
associations with it now
2. Peppermint? A rare treat
3. Couple? Rayfe and me
4. Pop? A sharp sound
5. Tokyo? Um, I have no idea! What is it?
