Lorina Stephens at Indigo, Burlington

As part of the fall promotional tour for her latest book release, From Mountains of Ice, Lorina Stephens will be appearing at Indigo, 1250 Brant Street, Burlington, Ontario, on Saturday, November 7, from 1:00 to 4:00 p.m.

Lorina will be signing copies of From Mountains of Ice, as well as And the Angels Sang and Shadow Song.
This latest cultural fantasy from Lorina is story of love, endurance and the meaning of honour, set against an Italian Renaissance background.

Sylvio di Danuto has spent the past decade banished from Simare’s court, stripped of land, ancestral home and title – from Minister of National Security to back-country bowyer. But not any bowyer; Sylvio creates bows from laminations of wood and human bone, bows that are said to speak, bows known as the legendary arcossi.

And now, after a decade, he is called back to the capitol, summoned by his Prince whom he suspects is a patricide and insane. His very life is in danger and with it the country he has served through all his days.
