| STORY DESCRIPTION In Milo's Burden, a wooden carving is brought to life by the ancient and forgotten Lifefire. But the new-born woman, Malissa, has a terrible flaw: her only emotion is rage. It feeds the power that surges through her and will not let her rest until she holds the entire world in a vicious death grip. The crew of the Pride and the inhabitants of mythical Uamh struggle to thwart her plans. In a bloody battle, Captain Oprum is taken prisoner and all else is put aside to rescue him.
Milo, the young boy who animated Malissa, has inadvertently upset the forces of Lifefire and sundered its delicate balance. With his sister and her friend, and an old man and his mangy dog, he must travel deep within the mountains to discover the secrets of Lifefire before rage rules the world. | Keywords related to this title - click on a keyword to find more, related stories Fantasy/SF Fiction/Adventure Author information: PEGGY HOGAN has lived in different places, challenged herself with a variety of careers, and travels where she hopes to find something unusual.

About writing, Hogan says: “Writing can transport me to a state of Zenlike oneness. It’s like, suddenly and momentarily, everything is right with the world. I become a conduit for the story that the characters must tell. Nothing is better than that.” Visit her at peggyhoganauthor.com. |
