Few, like Julie's, embody it." --Kristen Britain, New York Times bestselling author of Green Rider " A Turn of Light is a gorgeous creation . Julie Czerneda's world and characters are richly layered and wonderful--full of mystery, hope and, most of all, heart. Come spend some time in Marrowdell. It's worth the journey. And be polite to the toads." --Anne Bishop " Luminous and beguiling . With Marrowdell and its enchanting inhabitants, Julie Czerneda has conjured a world that readers can sink into and disappear. I lost myself to this tale that is, by turns, lovely, lyrical, and thrilling . This book is a feast for the mind and the heart." --Lesley Livingston "Infused with idyllic enchantment, Julie Czerneda weaves a heart-warming bucolic tale, packed with magic both wild and strange-- a top-notch fantasy read!
