We get to host another wonderful author and another wonderful book (which will be going on my to-read list). I met her with the ASMSG, a wonderful author support group. I got to talking with her over the months, liked her, and picked up a copy of "The Stolen" to see what all the fuss was. She writes like Ray Bradbury, so I've been a fan since. Michelle loves magpies (maybe she's really a magpie in disguise...stranger things happen around here), enjoying all the wonders of nerd-dom, and is one of those rare female gamers. Most of us are gamers of some degree here at THG StarDragon Publishing. Michelle fits right in.
The Underlighters
Nightmares are bleeding into her waking
world. Children are going missing. To save them, she must overcome
her wreck of a personal life and a closet full of skeletons. She
doesn’t know if the horrors in the shadows are real...or if she is
going mad.
18-year-old Janelle Cohen is an
electrician in an underground city. The world above has been
swal-lowed by mind-destroying Dust. Her small life changes forever
when a dragon attacks her on the way home from work.
Her friends worry that she has the
Fever, Dust-induced insanity. As more monsters strike down citizens,
they change their minds. A terrifying trip to the surface of the
world, the ancient and abandoned Up, deepens the nightmare. With no
world left above, she and the other Crows cannot afford to fail…

Janelle’s world is about to get very,
very dark. Are you ready? On August 30th, nightmares are
going to become a little too real for comfort.
