Celia S. Friedman Crown of Shadows

For Nancy Friedman

Because the only thing better than hanging fifty feet over a smoking volcano with nothing but a thin sheet of plastic between you and it—with a pilot whose idea of fun is to tip the helicopter over on its side without warning and cheerily yell, "Don’t worry, you won’t fall out!"—is having someone to share that with.

The author would like to thank the following people for their help in making this book possible:

Neil Rackham, for sharing his volcano;

Gene Fisher, for sharing his horses;

Helen Zebarth, for fielding some very strange medical questions;

and Shirley Maddox, for the most precious gift of all: time.
