    Margaret Pearce

    Margaret Pearce was born when the population of Australia was seven million – now it is some twenty-two million. Like many Australians, her forebears immigrated in the 1850's to find a better life for their children, part of the largest diaspora of the times.At seven when she found a lurid science fiction magazine, her unsupervised reading started. The cover had an almost naked female in a large wine glass and an interesting alien drinking her blood from a tap below. She has since been hooked on science fiction and fantasy. She completed a commercial course before being launched on an unsuspecting business world as a typist, stenographer and secretary before falling into copywriting. When she married, she commenced writing and even while raising children, found time to publish. When children grew, she decided to study for a arts degree as a mature age student and become a teacher, but writing continued to dominate her life.The Author lives in an underground house in the Australian bush, where she maintains her love of writing.

      This book follows an interesting concept. Evil forces have overtaken the land, and it is up to a herbalist called Raven to unlock the magic of a strange log.The story may seem a bit odd, but it did hold my interest.
    • 4/5
      This is a LTMG in exchange of an honest review.I liked this book from the beginning. It dragged me in with the first sentence and kept me wondering till the end. It's a nice adventure to follow Raven and see the events unfold, full of unexpected turns and strange gods. Absolutely to recommend.
