Book excerpt: After months of traveling to other realms, venturing through time and space, after battling dragons and dead men, facing down mystical cults and embracing her extraordinary abilities, Mara Lantern must now face the consequences of all that has gone before. Battles with her counterpart from an alternate universe have torn the fabric of reality, and she must endure a quest to repair the damage. If she fails, existence itself—or the life of her brother—may be the price she pays. _____ Join Mara Lantern and her companions in a seven-volume science fiction adventure through reality, time and space, where they encounter everything from steampunk dream worlds to artificial humans, from dragons to disembodied spirits, where metaphysics is science and magic is just one belief from coming true.
