About the Author

Anne Logston has been steadily building a body of work that has earned a unique place in fantasy fiction. With the novel Shadow, she created a fascinating medieval world filled with magic, humor, grit and a feisty, unforgettable heroine, Shadow--an elvan thief who returned in the novels Shadow Hunt and Shadow Dance. The adventures of Shadow's niece, Jaellyn--born of royal and elvan blood--are vividly portrayed in the thrilling novels Dagger's Edge and Dagger's Point. And her powerful fantasy epics Greendaughter and Wild Blood take readers deeper into Logston's fully drawn world--generations before Shadow was born. Her new novel, Guardian's Key, is her most ambitious work to date, a magical journey of self- discovery that opens new doors of the imagination.
