Love on the Run
Nola O’Grady is sick and tired of psychic squid-images following her
everywhere, waving their tentacles and generally making nuisances of
themselves. She and her partner, Ari Nathan, have a dangerous job on
their hands, hunting down two criminals who have escaped into another
level of the multiverse, the San Francisco of Terra Six.
Terrorists have turned parts of that city into a deathtrap — religious
fanatics, yes, but from what religion? Nola suspects that the Peacock
Angel Chaos cult lies behind the bombings and mass murders. As she
gathers evidence, she finds herself face-to-face with part of her own
personal past that she’d prefer to bury forever.
And by the way, just who is it that keeps trying to kill her?

Katharine Kerr
In the realm of epic fantasy, few names echo with the same fierce clarity as Katharine Kerr. Best known for her immersive Deverry Cycle, Kerr didn’t just create a world—she wove a tapestry of time, memory, and reincarnation that spanned centuries, yet remained achingly intimate. Her stories pulse with Celtic inspiration, layered timelines, and flawed, deeply human characters who evolve across lives and generations.
But Kerr’s journey to fantasy legend wasn’t charted from childhood. Born in Cleveland, Ohio, she was more interested in jazz and science fiction than medieval swords and sorcery. It wasn’t until she moved to the San Francisco Bay Area—where myth and counterculture have long danced together—that her path bent toward high fantasy. A longtime fan of roleplaying games, she began designing complex worlds for tabletop campaigns before ever writing a novel. That attention to internal logic and continuity became a hallmark of her fiction. Unlike many traditional fantasy epics, the Deverry books don’t rely on prophecy or fate. They depend on choices—some noble, many terrible—and the way consequences echo through lifetimes.
