More About the Author
I have written under three pen names: as Emily Devenport I wrote SHADE, LARISSA, SCORPIANNE, EGGHEADS, THE KRONOS CONDITION, and GODHEADS. As Maggy Thomas I wrote BROKEN TIME, which was nominated for the Philip K. Dick award. As Lee Hogan I wrote BELARUS and ENEMIES. My books have been published in the U.S., the U.K., Israel, and Italy. I just published two Emily Devenport e-books, THE NIGHT SHIFTERS and SPIRITS OF GLORY. They can be read on your kindle -- look for them on amazon! I'm always working on new books, usually two or three at once, so keep checking my page for updates. I live in Arizona, a wonderfully strange place where I enjoy hiking, gardening, rockhounding, and writing. I also review books on amazon as Emily Hogan. (No, I don't have Multiple Personality Disorder -- just Multiple Pen Name Disorder.)

Great Book,
By A Customer
This review is from: Larissa (Paperback)
I really liked this book. The cover is deceptive, the heroine is a beautiful dark-skinned Amazon-like lady. I wish that there was a sequel to this book. I really enjoyed reading about Larissa the knife fighter. Most heroines in books are on the delicate side, compared to Larissa. This is one tough chick who is also extremely beautiful. I recommend this book.

Fantastically written,
By A Customer
This review is from: Larissa (Paperback)
This book is superb - the writing is fast-paced and witty, and Larissa is one very tough, smart, and eminently likeable character. A great read - the only dissapointment, being the deceptiveness of the cover - maybe it's bad marketing to have a beautiful dark-skinned lady on the front cover - it certainly didn't take away from an excellently written book, but did make me a little disappointed in the way an otherwise admirable heroine was let down by her PR department.

I love this novel beause you really get into the character,
By Jessica Pehoda (Lansdale ,PA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Larissa (Paperback)
I love all of Emily Devenport's novels but this is by far my favorite. What made me love this novel was Larissa's character. She's strong and intelligent about life. Devenport's writing pulls you into the troubles of Larissa's life and keeps you there til the very last word. I have recommended this novel many times and I myself have read it many times. If great writing and a good story is what you want then this is the book!
