Fire in the Mist

by Holly Lisle

Overview

Winner of the Compton Crook Award for Best First Novel

A young shepherdess, drawn home from the fields by the haunted certainty that something is wrong, discovers her world utterly destroyed, and in the process unleashes depths of magic within herself not even she suspected.

Dragged by strangers into a life she detests in a city where she doesn't belong, she reveals lies of history, monsters disguised as allies, and a secret the grand city that claims her has foolishly hidden---a secret that will destroy it and its inhabitants if she and her few tenuous allies cannot reverse the deadly threat wild magic has set free.

About the Author

Before she was a novelist, Holly Lisle was an RN, mostly in the ER. In November of 1992, however, a three-book deal with Baen and quite a few moments of sequential insanity led to her holding a uniform-burning party in her back yard --- which her writers-group friends attended --- putting her nursing license in mothballs, and going full-time as a writer. In spite of numerous subsequent adventures in financing (she is the master of foods made with canned beans and pasta), she never looked back. She has now published several million of words of both fiction and nonfiction, and with thirty-two commercially published novels behind her and more than a million books in print, has fully embraced being her own publisher.
