Announcing the availability of "Children of Rhatlan," Jonathan Fesmire's debut novel about two unique people and their courage in the face of prejudice. You can purchase the beautiful trade paperback, "Children of Rhatlan," with cover art by Stephanie Law, from Crystal Dreams Publications at www.crystaldreamspub.com.

A coming of age fantasy novel, "Children of Rhatlan" introduces Fesmire's concept of "duals," twins born magically linked, so only one is present in the world at a time. Society fears duals, seeing their uniqueness as a threat to contemporary morals and public safety.

Garum and Vayin, our seventeen-year-old dual protagonists, simply want to experience life away from the small farm town where they grew up. Soon, their desire for independence brings them to the attention of a dark wizard, and into the greatest danger of their lives.

"Children of Rhatlan" takes place on Taibril, Fesmire's rich fantasy world. Three gods look over Taibril: Moreri, the goddess of life and love, Lothay, the strong, wize god of nature, and Rhatlan, the greatly misunderstood god of whimsey and joy.

"Children of Rhatlan" has received rave reviews from SF Site and elsewhere.

Fesmire is, in addition to being a promising new voice in fantasy literature, a fantasy artist. On his site, jonathanfesmire.com, you'll find his artwork, including a Tarot deck based on the world of "Children of Rhatlan."
