Résumé

"Andrew knew that the moon had stolen his parents away."He tried to explain to Elizabeth once, after the funeral, but she didn't understand. Her face turned horribly pale, and she whispered, "They're dead, Andrew. Don't you know that?" And then, just in case he didn't, she drew him a picture. She used her red pencils, and some of Andrew's crayons, besides. She used rusty-red for the brick buildings, brownish-red for the mugger's jacket, rosy-red for Mom's torn sweater on the sidewalk.
And bright red for Dad, where the knife had gone through his chest."Andrew tore the drawing up-not because looking at it sent icy shivers up his spine, though it did-but because she'd gotten the drawing all wrong. She'd left out the moon, large and round in the night sky, and that was the most important part."

Biographie de Janni Lee Simner

Janni Lee Simner lives in the Arizona desert, where the plants know how to bite and the dandelions have thorns. In spite of these things-or maybe because of them-she believes she lives in one of the most stunning places on earth. Her post-apocalyptic Bones of Faerie trilogy is set after the war between the human and faerie realms has destroyed the world, leaving behind a land filled with deadly magic.
The first book, Bones of Faerie, was dubbed, "Pure, stunning, impossible to put down or forget, " by World Fantasy Award winner Jane Yolen. School Library Journal describes the second book, Faerie Winter, as, "A hauntingly exquisite portrait of a postapocalyptic world."She's also the author of Thief Eyes, a contemporary young adult fantasy based on the Icelandic sagas; of the kids' adventure story Tiernay West, Professional Adventurer; of the short-story collection Unicorn Seasons; and of three more novels and more than 30 more short stories, including appearances in Welcome to Bordertown and Cricket magazine.
