Editorial Reviews

From Library Journal

When human telepath Carrie mates with her catlike Sholan telepath Kusac, their offspring will be more powerful than their genetic parts and a threat to the Sholan guilds and clans. Striking out for a new life, Carrie, Kusac, and other Sholan-Human couples uncover the Sholans' long-forgotten past and find answers for the survival of both races. Fans of Andre Norton will enjoy the imaginative depiction of the Sholans. Recommended for sf collections with or without the two earlier books in the "Sholan Alliance" series (Turning Point, DAW, 1993, and Fortune's Wheel, DAW, 1995).
Copyright 1996 Reed Business Information, Inc.

Review

"On the home planet of the Sholans, a lot of skullduggery is afoot as the guilds fight over jurisdiction of the telepathically bonded human-Sholan couples. To avoid becoming pawns in the continuing struggle, Carrie and Kusac decide to follow a dangerous ritual that holds a key to the past and the future. Ms. Norman continues to develop at an amazing rate, creating a rare allure and fascination that will hold you spellbound and begging for more."

- Romantic Times

"...This is unabashed pulpish SF and a lot of fun."

- Locus

More About the Author

I was born in Glasgow, Scotland, on 15th February, destined, according to my mother, to be a Valentine present for my father.

"Strong-willed, independent, a whirlwind, a dreamer, she lives in another world." These phrases followed me around from my earliest days. They were partly right: I had grander plans than a world, though, I was all ready creating the universe of the Sholan Alliance, where magic, Warriors, and science all co-exist.

Following my dreams, and the sun, I moved to the USA 5 years ago. I live in a menagerie and am owned by 2 cats, Ramesses and Bast, and a very furry dog called Domino.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Depiction of the World and the Charachters, June 24, 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: Fire Margins (Sholan Alliance) (Paperback)
I've read all three books in this series, and I loved all of them, but especially this one. It brings out the best (and sometimes worst) characteristics in all the people in the books. It delves even deeper into the history and culture of Shola. Lisanne Norman depicts her story so well that I can visualize all of the people and places so well that I can draw them. I highly recommend this book, especially to cat lovers

This review is from: Fire Margins (Sholan Alliance) (Paperback)
Loved this story.
And yes the author being a close personal friend has nothing to do with it.
Nor does my being in the story :-) (just added benefits...)
