AbstractHistoryArchive Description
'Children of Morwena is a futuristic epic with elements of fairy tale. It tells the story of Leila Kieva, Andre, and their young sister, Bonnie, whose lives are shattered when their family is destroyed in a single strike against the city of Morwena. The children, along with their peers who have been evacuated, are suddenly flung into a life brushed with death defying forces - the deadly Grim, an organization thriving in chaos, Alrica, the wolf woman, and Rattus, who have their own dark agendas. It is a tough story. Not everyone makes it, but the will to create a common life and to seek love, joy, and continuity is strong. Above all, Children of Morwena is a story about love and belonging.'
