From the Sphere to the Grave

Crystal lives the first twenty-seven years of her life as a housewife and mother, out of place in her existence. She is a wild spirit who is suddenly unleashed into another world, far from her twentieth century reality. On Hyla, Crystal discovers that she is to be a high power sorceress, a healer, in a place of castles and dragons, where magic is real. The energy of the Orb propels her desires into reality, and fades her guilt of deserting her life on Earth. 

Lucas Tazarian is Hyla’s high sorcerer, a lone spirit, free in his life and his ideas. His existence is forever changed on the moon he carries Crystal’s life energy into Hyla to take its place in his adopted sister’s flesh. The physical bodies on Earth and on Hyla are matching shells, but his sister and Crystal are two very different women.

Taz is assigned to the task of turning Crystal into who she is destined to become. He is her teacher, her mentor and through the calling of the power they hold, becomes her lover, mate and protector.

The possibilities of their existence together are endless, but so are the forces that aim to destroy their power, love and ultimately their lives. 

An adult fantasy, for those who like their reading fast paced. This book is meant to call forth a roller coaster of emotions. Visually suggestive, the text is occasionally sexual, or violent in nature. 

Kat Barrett wrote this as the first in a series that has now been spun into over twenty novels. She lives in her Connecticut home with her husband, and two dogs, who are patiently waiting for her to run out of ideas and stop writing in all her spare time.

A fan writes. I have never in my life read an entire book in one night. An exciting read that haunted me into going back to read 'one more chapter.' I couldn't put it down with an overwhelming need to know what happened next.
