Sanna, Sorceress Apprentice is written by my friend Roxanna Matthews. It falls in the Fantasy genre.
Sanna attends the Thon Academy of Higher Magic to hone her talents and make her into a very talented sorceress. Her talents lie within the fiber arts where she can knit just about anything--a bottomless bag that hold tons of items, socks that are self-heating--and she can also knit people's injured bodies back to health!
I do not want to give too much away, but if you are interested in purchasing the book, you can go to:

Another book is written by Alice Lynn and it is entitled Volunteer for Glory, an historical romance.
Rachel is left alone on their farm in Illinois when her husband, Stuart, joins the volunteer cavalry during the Civil war. She endures much and shows her strength. She also encounters a neighbor who she begins to have feelings for.

Three young environmentalists kidnap the Secretary of the Interior and take her to the Pacific Northwest woods to re-educate her, in the belief that when she returns to D.C., she will begin making correct, informed decisions for the land. Their relationships with each other and with the Secretary of the Interior (whom they have dubbed the Lorax) grows in this book. The ending is a real shocker! You must read it!

All great books! It's nice of you to spread the word.
ReplyDeleteRose, you totally rock! Brownies for you, kiddo! And did you know that if you go to the Amazon sites for those books, you can post your comments online?
ReplyDeleteWhat can I say, except thank you for the wonderful review, not just of Volunteer for Glory, but for Kidnapping the Lorax, Sanna, Soceress Apprentice, and The Blind Leading the Blind! And, as Roxie says, you can post these reviews on line at Amazon. :-) Thanks so much! Alice Lynn
ReplyDeleteHi Rose, thanks for checking up on us! The rest of the trip wasn't that interesting and pictures were few, but we promise to get to that soon :) Right now we are dealing with a problematic blog "friend" who has been causing us trouble, so we'd like to resolve that before posting more pics and information up. It is unfortunate, we know. Soon! :)
