    About this ebook

    Thoughout the development of the human race, no matter how much changed along the way, there was a thread of continuity. Knowledge and wisdom were passed from generation to generation along with the spice of entertainment. Now, we have television, but once there were Grandmothers.

    Laura Haglund

    Laura Haglund is a native of Sturgeon Bay, Wisconsin. Born on a rocky peninsula, she was always fascinated by...rocks. That, with a love of nature and a fondness for foraging, grew into a preoccupation with prehistoric life. An avid reader as long as she can remember, the author devoured mountains of science fiction and fantasy but found too little fiction that treated stone-age people in a satisfying way. Eventually, after a sudden spate of writing fan fiction parodies based on the characters of a well-known writer of prehistoric fiction, one of her original characters demanded to have his own story told properly. Ms. Haglund also works for NAMI of Door County, does free-lance web design and graphic art, and has a computer repair business on the side. She is better known on the Web as Matera the Mad.

      This is an in-between sequel to my fantasy novel, A Drum Is Empty. The only magic in it is that of love.

      Long ago, before television, even before books could be written, history was passed on orally. Children learned about what mattered from experienced adults. The past and the present were not completely separate; there was continuity, passed from generation to generation. There were grandmothers.
