  About the Author

  Sylvia Kelso lives in North Queensland, Australia, and has been writing or telling stories for as long as she remembers. The Moving Water is her second fantasy novel, the sequel to her well-received Everran’s Bane. She has also published poetry in Australian literary magazines, and has a Creative Writing MA for an alternate history/SF novel set in alternate North Queenslands. She lives in a house with a lot of trees in the garden, but no cats or dogs. She makes up for this by playing Celtic music on a penny whistle and is now learning the fiddle as well.
