Simon Hawke began writing at the age of six, and throughout his life, never wavered from the goal of
becoming a professional writer. Along the way, he worked as a rock drummer, a factory worker, an FM
disc-jockey, a bookstore clerk, a bartender, an Instructor in a broadcasting school, an armed guard for
Hollywood celebrities, a custom motorcycle builder, a shipping clerk, an actor, a radio-production engineer
for the United Nations, a magazine writer and interviewer, and a stand-in for the Shadow when Lamont
Cranston had better things to do. He became a full-time writer in 1978 and has more than fifty novels to his
credit.
Hawke lives alone in a secluded, Santa Fe-style home, which he designed and built in the Sonoran
Desert about forty-five miles southwest of Tucson, on the crest of the Altar Valley, opposite Kitt Peak,
near the Papago Indian Reservation. His interests include motorcycling, history, pistol marksmanship, rock
music and jazz, metaphysics, martial arts, and collecting fantasy art and Indian jewelry. His other works
include the best-selling Time Wars and Wizard of 4th Street series, as well as the Reluctant Sorcerer and
the Nine Lives of Catseye Gomez.

As the twin moons cast their ghostly light upon the endless wasteland, Lyra stood alone atop the
Dragon's Tooth, waiting for the sunrise. Once each year, for the past thousand years, she had made her
pilgrimage to the summit of the highest peak on Athas to reaffirm her vows and dream the dream she
