Brief Author Bio:

Ardyth DeBruyn is a native Oregonian with a restless nature and a degree in Anthropology. After hiking over 1500 miles across Europe and living on the Mexican border for a year, she settled back in the Pacific Northwest (for now) to write fantasy stories. She has decided she can type herself into adventures faster than walk. She is the author of Chosen Sister.

Synopsis: Among the Saer

When seventeen-year-old Sarah Eaton unwittingly witnesses a fight between two warriors with strange powers and rescues twelve-year-old apprentice Thennison Padisi, she is drawn into the business of the Saer Guardians. An ancient order charged with guarding the connections between worlds and keeping caemon (ordinary people) from stumbling through them, a betrayal has left Thenny's master dead, their mission incomplete, and Thenny and Sarah the only witnesses to the existence of an illegal Saer group bent on a coup.

To infiltrate the sedition, Sarah dresses as a Saer Master, with Thenny posing as her apprentice but actually instructing and aiding her in using Saer technology. They two travel to the Saer headquarters to find the murderer and expose the conspirators.
