ACKNOWLEDGMENTS
Thank you to my
beloved Samwise. You make life a joy, always and forever. And to my
agent, Meredith Bernstein, and to my editor, Kate Seaver: Thank you
both for helping me stretch my wings and soar. To Tony Mauro, an
incredible cover artist. To my assistant who helps me keep track of
everything. To my “Galenorn Gurlz,” those still with me, those who
have come into my life the past year, and those who crossed over
the Bridge the past years—I will always love you, even through the
veil.
Most reverent
devotion to Ukko, who rules over the wind and sky; Rauni, queen of
the harvest; Tapio, lord of the woodlands; and Mielikki, goddess of
the Woodlands and Fae Queen in her own right. All, my spiritual
guardians. And to the Fae—both dark and light—who walk this world
beside us.
And the biggest
thank-you of all: To my readers. Your
support helps me continue to write the books you love to read! You
can find me on the Net at Galenorn En/Visions: www.galenorn.com.
If you write to me snail mail (see website for address or write via
the publisher), please enclose a stamped, self-addressed envelope
if you would like a reply. Promo goodies are available—see my site
