REVIEW:  I give a resounding “Wow!” for Claudia Newcorn’s new book, “Crossover: Krisálys Chronicles of Féyree: Scroll 1,” a light fantasy with substance.  This intelligently written adventure story involving old grudges, ambition, love, and other dimensions of existence, also speaks to the difficulties of growing up and making independent, responsible choices

Tyler:  Since this novel is the start of a series, in the subtitle, why did you decide to label it as “Scroll 1” rather than just book one?

Claudia:   “Scroll” better ties back to the word “Chronicles” as a more archaic word, which fits with the pastoral, non-industrialized realm of Lampion. It also ties into the story’s important background mythology that describes the Scrolls of Atonement, written by the Twins. These two féyree gathered all their folks’ magical lore, and established new ways of living and protecting the féyree folk after the devastating Battle of Sagád and the Days of Dimness. Scrolls are the Fey Folk’s way of keeping records, and each Guild is responsible for protecting, maintaining and amending them, as approved by the Guild Master. The most ancient of scrolls are kept at Revelstoke, the high seat of Féyree, and only with the permission of the Lord and Lady can they be reviewed.
