Wintermoon Ice, set on present-day Earth, features Tessa Kivelson, an archaeologist who unexpectedly acquires a mirror and a journal from her long-dead grandmother, Suvi Markku. This find thrusts Tessa into danger from alien creatures called Polydactyls, and she turns to her exasperating neighbor Jakob Faircrow for help. He is a capable defender (and later, lover) but she finds his smug arrogance infuriating. Jakob and Tessa must put aside their differences long enough to discover why Suvi hid the mirror and why the Polys want it. The journal provides vital clues to Suvi''s past life in Severnessa with Jakob''s twin brother Lut -- a life that will shortly intersect with Tessa''s, when a magic gateway blends past and present, and brings the two women face to face with the creator of the Polydactyls. Wintermoon Ice is a spellbinding tale of twos: two cites, two times, two brothers and two women, who must save their world from an unspeakable terror.

The death and havoc they wreak will send Lut on a mission of vengeance against Maggrai -- and his brother, Jakob. In the final battle, the Dawnmaid must find a way to converse with her enemies, the Angellus, before they attack the secret haven of the Firaithi with their unquenchable fire.

Yrth... a place of ordered beauty -- and undreamed of terror. A magical realm where winged Amaranthine hide in the shadow of humankind, while selfishly exploiting them. A universe of countless dimensions; where an unwary sideways step might carry you to Death''s silent Kingdom -- or beyond, to the very heart of the rising Gyre. Now into this world comes Katrione Estelle du Chesne, a born healer. The Amaranthine need her, for she is destined to become the Vessel of the Goddess Lalluna and a pawn in the battle against their enemy, the dark Angellus. And Katrione''s fellow citizens, in the nation of Beaumarais, are also desperately in need of a healing touch, as they suffer through an endlessly bloody civil war. The difficult choices that Katrione must make -- between humankind and Amaranthine -- true love and responsibility -- sworn oath and unhappy truth, make for compulsive reading.
