The Woman Who Lives in the Earth by Swain Wolfe
This beautifully written novel has achieved astounding success in its self-published edition. Set in a place beyond time, it tells the story of a child gifted with extraordinary powers and abilities. She becomes the object of suspicion and fear amongst the towns people, who blame her for the relentless drought that they are experiencing. They decide that she must be killed in order to bring back the rain to their valley. The child, aided by her grandmother and a fox-like creature with whom she is magically bonded, transforms herself into animals to escape the persecution. Finally, she metamorphoses into a mist which penetrates the hearts of the people. The mist becomes water which washes away their fear and hatred as the rains fall and the drought comes to an end.`The Woman Who Lives in the Earth will become a classic’
