This is a love project.
And I'm in love with it.
Lani Forbes was a young mom and author who was diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer after the birth of her son. Cancer stole her from her family rapidly. As a young mom myself, this makes me want to cry.
Our of the dark comes light, however, and an amazing group of incredibly talented authors have banded together to make up an anthology of fantasy short stories in her memory. I'm part way through reading them, and every single story has me asking for MORE. This is such an amazing passion project. I'd highly encourage you to purchase a copy. First, it's a great read. Second, all the procedes go to Lani's family. So pay up and enjoy. This is a chance to do something good and also receive something amazing in return.
Additional info from amazon.ca: Light shines brightest in dark places…
A selfish empress slowly turns to gold. A highschooler's hallucinations reveal a dangerous new world of Faerie. An outcast battles shadow demons to save her people from the plague.
This charity collection of YA fantasy stories celebrates the light found in dark places, just as Lani Forbes once embodied having hope in difficult times. Her spirit shines on through these beautiful, bittersweet tales full of fallen stars and fae princes, werewolves and magic wielders, samurai and smoky skies.
Featuring stories from Ronie Kendig, Jill Williamson, Julie Hall, Carrie Anne Noble, S.D. Grimm, and more!
