SURVIVE MY FIRE


I just finished reading Joely Sue Burkhart's SURVIVE MY FIRE available from Drolliere Press (did I spell that right?).

What a great book. I love dragons and this beautiful myth of love conquering all really sucked me in.

Here's the excerpt from Drolliere Press about this book.

Hundreds of warriors have braved my domain. They came, and they died.

I killed them all.

In a land of poisoned sands and unending drought, Chanda has been trapped as a dragon for centuries. When yet another warrior comes to her lair, she wants to eat him. The last one was certainly tasty.

As the last dragon warrior of his tribe, Jalan must kill the White Dragon to save his people. He survives her teeth and claws. He even survives her Fire. Yet he loses the battle to protect his heart from the proud, fierce woman revealed by the silvered full moon.

While Jalan must choose between his heart and his tribe, Chanda realizes she may at last break her curse forever... if she's willing to make the greatest sacrifice of all.

If that doesn't convince you to buy it I don't know what will. It's amazing, that's all I have to say I couldn't put it down. Joely you a have a beautiful gift of painting vivid imagery.

Ok, back to editing and Harry Potter, oh and I have to check out the meme's Rhi tagged me with and get ready for poetry Monday.

That's very Swan Lake/Turandot-ish. And I love that ballet and opera. And I love dragons. This sounds like the book for me...
