For the first time in millennia, the teams are equally matched. The field itself holds a kind of equilibrium. It is the task of Bj rn's Players to unbalance the field in their own favor in their great game to restore Balance to the Realms of Light. But with Malorin'athgul and now Warlocks returned to the realms, the game--and the stakes involved--has elevated to an entirely new order of magnitude, requiring Bj rn's Players to do the same.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eIn Illume Belliel...\u003c\/em\u003eafter millennia of exile, the Demon Lord has regained a foothold in the Realms of Light, thanks to his ally, Shailabhanáchtran.

She's the wife of an attorney who would rather be gaming, the mother of twin girls who think boys in books are just better, and the adoptive mother to four very large cats who basically rule the roost; and while she can never leave the house in one attempt, she's pretty darn good at spinning a tale. She's also a classically trained pianist, violinist and composer, a Vinyasa yoga instructor, and an avid tea drinker. Melissa's fantasy series has won eight best fantasy awards and (even more importantly to her) a fiercely devoted following. She is known for being an engaged author on social media and welcomes your thoughts on her work, the speculative fiction genre or writing in general.
