Book description
The desert winds have come to the village of Minas Ford. Griffins,
creatures of fire, have appeared in a burning haze - searing the sky a
blinding white and scorching the earth to parched, barren sand. These
majestic beasts, half-lion, half-eagle, spread the arid desert wherever
they roam. Iaor, the King of Feierabiand, will not tolerate the
destruction of his people's farmland. He means to drive the griffins
from his domain - whether by negotiation or brute force. But not all
those who encounter the griffins fear them. Kes, a timid village girl,
is summoned to heal the King of the Griffins himself. She will discover
her affinity with these creatures, and come to realise that the menace
they flee is even more deadly than the blazing fires of the desert. This
omnibus edition contains: LORD OF THE CHANGING WINDS, LAND OF THE
BURNING SANDS and LAW OF THE BROKEN EARTH Rachel Neumeier started
writing fiction as a hobby to relax from her research as a graduate
student. However, finding that research wasn't for her, she soon let her
hobbies take over her life instead. Apart from tutoring part time,
Rachel also gardens, cooks, raises and shows dogs, and occasionally
finds time to read.
