People of the Star follows on from the Dream of Asarlai trilogy (Secret Ones<\/em>, Power Unbound<\/em>, Rogue Gadda<\/em>) published by HarperCollins Voyager in 2010 and 2011.<\/p>\n The People of the Star trilogy picks up where Dream of Asarlai ended, after the gadda were revealed to the human world. The gadda look human, act human, live ostensibly human lives, yet are descended from different ancestors and as a result, have access to the power of the world around them and can use it to perform what humans call magic. In this new trilogy, set in Ireland and Australia, we meet some old friends and get to know new ones in a world where magic, romance, betrayal, and family feuds are part of everyday life.<\/p>\n Bookseller + Publisher<\/em> considered Secret Ones<\/em> as a \u201cfresh and interesting approach to an urban fantasy series\u201d and the Courier Mail<\/em> reviewed Power Unbound<\/em> as \u201ca rollicking romp through the space where fantasy and romance collide\u201d.<\/p>\n \u201cThe first three gadda books were amazing, addictive page turners full of wonderful characters and fabulous ideas,\u201d Ticonderoga Editor Liz Grzyb said.<\/p>\n \u201cWe\u2019re thrilled to be able to continue this story at Ticonderoga, and to be working with such a fantastic writer like Nicole.\u201d<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m absolutely delighted to see the gadda story will finally be concluded, and that it\u2019s the fabulous folks at Ticonderoga that will make it happen,\u201d Nicole said.<\/p>\n \u201cI\u2019m really looking forward to working with Liz on these new books, and seeing the final product.
