The Heart's Desire
Publisher Description
A government scryer's life is a prison until she discovers the ultimate secret language. This poignant near-future tale examines the boundaries between love and freedom.
THE HEART'S DESIRE is part of the collection PENTANGLE: FIVE POINTED FABLES.
About the author: Early life as a military brat gave Carolyn Kephart an appreciation of nomadic lifestyles, a fascination with world cultures, and close-up insights into the warrior mentality and its manifestations, all of which influence her work to a discernible degree. She loves things that nourish the spirit and widen the mind.
Kephart's epic fantasy THE RYEL SAGA: A TALE OF LOVE AND MAGIC combines and expands her critically acclaimed duology WYSARD and LORD BROTHER. Her latest novel is QUEEN OF TIME, contemporary magic realism that puts a Roman/Mayan spin on the Faustian bargain.
