Boyer studied English literature and Scandinavian mythology at Brigham Young University. Her work is deeply influenced by Norse mythology and set in a fantasy world with a similar climate and geography as the Scandinavia of Norse myths. While Norse myths influenced fantasy, including authors like Tolkien and Lewis, Boyer's works followed them more closely than other writers. Her stories are characterized by elements like light and dark elves, dwarves, trolls, sorcerers, ley lines, burial mounds, and wizards. She follows the Norse versions of these elements closely without much deviation. Her early books are dominated by the theme of the heroic quest]; ** Vertical Reading Stress Line in Spine, Minor Handling Wear, cover scuffing; surface scratching to covers; wear to bottom left front cover.
