SUMMARY:THE RISING - Author Meet & Greet with L F Seitz
DESCRIPTION:Visit Blue House Books Saturday\, February 25th to meet local author\, L F Seitz!\nKenosha fantasy writer\, L F Seitz\, will be at Blue House Books from 12 p.m. to 3 p.m. to chatting with customers about her book “The Rising”\, her writing journey and what she is working on. “The Rising” is available for purchase in-store and online at Blue House Books. Purchase your copy and have the author sign it in person! \n“The Rising”:\nOrphaned at a young age in Kenosha\, Wisconsin\, Lamia Relictus never feels more than nonexistent. Lamia moves around for years and eventually finds herself alone\, which gives her insight into the sad reality that was the rest of her life.\nUntil she is nearly killed outside her apartment one November night over something called The Rising.\nDropped into a world of untold monsters and a species called the Nephilim\, Lamia is forced to reevaluate who she is as much as how insignificant she thought she was. With bloodshed\, Demon attacks\, and powers she didn’t know she had\, Lamia can’t decide whether she is lost\, or seeing clearly for the first time in her life. With a cynical partner named Micah\, Lamia embarks on a journey to figure out what The Rising is\, as well as who she is. Or rather what she is.\nWhat she finds is beyond anything she could have imagined; darker\, deeper\, and deadlier. Will what she discovers change who she is in her heart? \nBooks are available in-store and online – https://blue-house-books.com/item/fevYtO_-W2VdITs61pn_BQ
