About Nora DempseyI have always been deeply fascinated by the obscure edges of reality. Inspired by those who lived before us-whether they drew actual breath ... once upon a time, or were given it by those who preserved civilization with their retellings of those who did act with courage, and a sense of right, in the face of overwhelming odds.And not just those who came before, but those brave souls living now, and those yet to come. I write fantasy, science fiction, thrillers, mystery, fairy tales, and more. Short stories, chapter books, games, screenplays, and novels-the medium is not as important as the subject. The subject is always the same. The reason we read, the reason I write, is to give space for heroes.I hope my stories inspire you. Help you to be the best you you can be. I hope you never stop reading. I don't ever plan to stop writing.I have several, award-winning screenplays out there, by the way-if you're a producer reading this-under the name I reserve for such contests: Halle McGowan. Check out my work at Coverfly.Now, back to you, dear reader. It means the world to me that you've picked up this book. I hope you've thoroughly enjoyed it, or are about to ...With deepest gratitude-Nora Dempsey
