Lissa Bryan and the Selkies @lissabryan

Have you ever met a selkie? 

(For those who are asking "What's a selkie?": they're mythological creatures found in Faroese, Icelandic, Irish, and Scottish folklore.)

I haven't met any selkie (so far), but I've met an author who can write amazing stories featuring them. 

The first one is a fanfic, suitable for readers who love a very, very well-researched historical tale:

• The Selkie Wife, by Lissa Bryan

Summary: Set during the reign of "Bloody Mary" Tudor. Bella is captured by Edward to raise his daughter. He promises to release her one day, but will he? Court intrigues and danger around every corner. Can they, and their new-found love, survive? Rated M/OOC/AU. Complete.

Bella as a selkie

The second story is an original novel, the third by Lissa Bryan -- author of Ghostwriter and The End of All Things. It's scheduled for release in 2014, but you can already enjoy a sneak peek:

Lissa Bryan: Sneak Peek Sunday: "Under These Restless Skies" 

Knowing how talented Lissa is, I'm sure Under These Restless Skies will be a new, captivating novel that will have me hooked.

Stay tuned!
