I write to music a good share of the time and have been sharing my playlists on my website. I finally decided to add them to the backs of the books for my readers who aren’t online.

Dear Reader:

I hope that you enjoyed Night Seeker, the third book in the Indigo Court series. There will be two more books in this series. I love writing these books and think of them as a dark Faerie tale. For me, it’s an opportunity to explore a world steeped in mysticism. Cicely’s world is one in which everything-from rock to tree to the weather itself-is inherently magical. The fourth book-Night Vision-will be out next year.

Until then, I hope you’ll enjoy the upcoming releases in my Otherworld series. Book twelve, Shadow Rising, Menolly’s next book, will be available in October 2012. And book thirteen, Haunted Moon, will be available in February 2013.

For those of you new to my books, I wanted to take this opportunity to welcome you into my worlds and I hope you enjoyed the journey enough to come back for more. And to those of you who’ve been reading my books for a while, I wanted to thank you for revisiting Cicely and Grieve’s world once again and for being so supportive of my work.
