C.S. Friedman on Feast of Souls
Since I posted the list of new books from January, it's now time to follow up with the Author's Notes. Every month, we ask most of our authors if there's anything interesting they'd like to say to our members about their new books. We'll start out this time with C.S. Friedman, author of Feast of Souls:
I envision Magic as a primordial force, not independent of scientific law but wedded to it, as much a part of the natural world as plate tectonics and relativity. Like fire it is neither good nor evil in itself, but can be wielded by humans in any number of causes. And like fire it can burn the one that handles it, smolder where it was thought be extinguished, or devour the homes and possessions of those of those who believed -- wrongly -- that they could control it.
