"LaFevers
is
that
wonderful
sort
of
storyteller
who
so
completely
meshes
events,
descriptions,
and
characters
that
readers
get
lost
in
the
world
she's
concocted.
It's
a
place
where
history
mingles
with
mystery
and
love
is
never
expected."

Notă biografică
Robin LaFevers, author of the New York Times best-selling His Fair Assassin books, was raised on fairy tales, Bulfinch's mythology, and nineteenth-century poetry. It is not surprising that she grew up to be a hopeless romantic. She was lucky enough to find her one true love, and is living happily ever after with him in California.
