Hope (The World In-between)

Since she first crossed the portal ten years ago, Hope learned to straddle two worlds—the mundane modern world and the magical world in-between the portals. As the only Wood Listener in centuries, she struggles to find her place in life. Unbeknownst to her uncle, her parents, and her innocent friend trailing her, Hope stoles into the magical side only to find her place fraught with danger.

IE Castellano is an American author and poet living in the Eastern United States. Falling in love with the mechanics of the English language at an early age, she started writing poetry before venturing into fiction. She loves history (especially ancient), mythology, arche-ology, and anthropology. Anything IE reads, sees, or does could wind up in one of her books in some manner. With her propensity to ask, what if, she writes speculative fiction-authoring the dystopian sci-fi novel, Tricentennial, and the contemporary epic fantasy series, The World In-between.
