As she bops between various lifetimes, interacting with characters from Hieber&#8217;s other works, Liz is accompanied by a friend who has reincarnated over and over, interacting with Liz&#8217;s parallel past-present lives.<\/p>\n<p>In other words, Hieber has written a series of novellas about a kind of Clara-Oswald-Kwisatz-Haderach who ties the Hieberverse together in the space opera universe she co-created with Thom Truelove. So, gaslamp space opera?<\/p>\n<p>In other, other words: you&#8217;ve never read anything like this.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/jennytrout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/1624975790.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-13181\" src=\"https:\/\/jennytrout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/1624975790.png\" alt=\"the silhouette of a woman in profile against the background of a ring of blue light and black, starry space beyond.

She doesn\u2019t merely glimpse past or future lives, she lives multiple lives concurrently. She is L\u2019Bet, a druid priestess holding out against the Roman invasion. She is Lizzie, a headstrong Victorian plumbing the depths of both science and Spiritualism. She is Beth, a Royal Air Force pilot fighting in World War II. And she is Captain Liz, a starship commander forging a path through the stars.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left; padding-left: 90px;\"><em>But being different comes with danger. Liz is determined to make it on her own, hiding her unusual ability from all but one trusted companion in each life. Yet, she is haunted by an ominous warning from her old mentor, Saire: Someday they\u2019ll fear you. People fear what they cannot understand, and it is only a matter of time before those with psychic powers are targeted for their difference. When that happens, Liz will have to choose between her life of independence and saving the community she rejected long ago.<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left; padding-left: 90px;\"><em>Return to the world of Leanna Renee Hieber\u2019s Dark Nest trilogy with the start of a new series that spans eras and galaxies!<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/jennytrout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/1624975833.png\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter  wp-image-13182\" src=\"https:\/\/jennytrout.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/1624975833.png\" alt=\"The silhoutte of a woman with her hand on her hip, in front of a purple ring of light and dark space with stars behind her.

And in each life\u2014from druidic priestess to starship captain\u2014she nurtures a special connection to the threads of power that crisscross the planet: ley lines. In times of danger she has always been able to draw on the power of these lines and hide herself within them. But recently something has soured the Earth\u2019s beautiful music. Elizabeth is haunted by an eerie dissonance that warns of an encroaching enemy, who seems to be pursuing her throughout each life. And she cannot hide forever. Elizabeth will have to open her heart to new allies and prepare to confront her greatest enemy if there is to be any hope for the survival of her people\u2014and herself.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The third installment releases in July, only on Scribd, from Bryant Street Publishing, <span style=\"color: #ff6600;\"><a style=\"color: #ff6600;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.scribd.com\/book\/513503286\/Time-Immemorial\">but you can get the first two now<\/a><\/span>.
