ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

The journey is far from complete, but the publication of the final book in the Dark Heavens trilogy is something of a milestone, and I’d like to thank those who helped along the way.

Alana and Fiona, who have been reading this story from the first day I started writing it, and have provided help, encouragement, advice, and viral marketing.

My family in Canberra who have told everybody they know all about my books with unrestrained pride.

Anni Haig-Smith my agent, who is accountant, advisor, and sometimes babysitter.

Stephanie Smith who took a gamble on an unpublished author which I hope has paid off as much as she wished it to. All the staff at HarperCollins, who work so very hard to make these books as successful as they could possibly be, and a particular thank you to Darren Holt for making the covers of my books so eye-catching.

My kids, Will and Maddy, who have given up trying to talk to me when I’m tapping away at my computer and just walk away with bemused resignation.

My wonderful husband Jason who is my one-man cheer squad.

Hikari Remora. You guys rock and yes, you do provide me with inspiration, and yes watch for yourselves in future volumes.

All my fans. I’m still a bit bewildered at the concept that I have fans. I’ve received so many wonderful emails and letters and I appreciate every single one of them. Don’t despair, everybody, this is just the beginning of the story and there is very much more to come.
