'Jump on the wagon now, because I think Bates is an author well worth watching' Robin Hobb
~*~*~Wildegarde came bearing a flame in her heart...~*~*~
It's been fourteen years since Elanna was taken hostage. Fourteen years spent being raised by the King who defeated her traitorous father. A man she's come to love like family.
But when the King is killed and Elanna framed for his murder, she must flee for her life.
Her only hope is to reach her homeland, but her father wants to reignite his rebellion and use Elanna as a figurehead. He will tell his followers she is the goddess Wildegarde reborn, a warrior of legend who could make the very earth tremble.
But what no one knows is that magic really does flow through Elanna's veins. And now she must decide whether she'll use her powers to create peace... or to enact revenge.

Review quote
The kind of enthusiastic fantasy debut that is always fun to wade into... For readers who delight in folklore-based fantasy, it's a joy to power through * SciFiNow * The Waking Land is all about rising to challenges, and it succeeds wonderfully. -- Charlaine Harris A heartbreaking, enchanting, edge-of-the-seat read that held me captive from start to finish! -- Tamora Pierce Callie Bates has written an exciting and involving first book, and she is clearly a writer of real talent . * Terry Brooks * A simmering tale of magic that builds to a raging inferno, and hits like a cross between Brandon Sanderson and Pierce Brown. -- Scott Sigler Jump on the wagon now, because I think Bates is an author well worth watching -- Robin Hobb
