Spiral Path: A Tale of Ritual Magic
关于此电子书
“I was born with lightning in one hand and mercy in the other, but what I need is the pattern to my tapestry of power.
“Danger drove me from the primeval American wilderness to Windward Academy, where the Wizard of Manhattan offers me one last chance to learn magical control. Windward--where every word, every breath is a test. Every lesson can be deadly. And every challenge can explode out of the schoolroom and into the realms of demons.
“Sometimes a shadow is so dark it arrives before the sun.”

作者简介
Katharine Eliska Kimbriel reinvents herself every decade or so. The one constant she has reached for in life is telling stories. “I’m interested in how people respond to choice. What is the metaphor for power, for choice? In SF it tends to be technology (good, bad and balanced) while in Fantasy the metaphor is magic–who has it, who wants or does not want it, what is done with it, and who/what the person or culture is after the dust has settled. A second metaphor, both grace note and foundation, is the need for and art of healing.
“Forthcoming stories will talk about new things that I’ve learned, and still hope to learn...with grace notes about betrayal, forgiveness, healing and second chances.” A Campbell Award nominee, Kimbriel is the author of the fantasy series Night Calls, and the SF series The Chronicles of Nuala. The books may be read in any order.
