SHELLEY BLIGNAUT
Author of "The Last Tree in Galanthus"
Shelley Blignaut is a first-time author and lifelong storyteller. She grew up with a vivid imagination, nourished and inspired by fantasy novels by the likes of C.S. Lewis and Robin Hobb. Born and raised in South Africa, she witnessed the deep scars of racial segregation as well as the beautiful, chaotic, incredible innovation that can occur when people of different races, cultures, languages, and beliefs come together. This background inspired the world of The Last Tree in Galanthus.
These days, Shelley lives in Vancouver, Canada with her husband and two crazy, young kids. She enjoys reading novels and poetry, playing with her kids, drinking good coffee and running in the forest.
THE LAST TREE IN GALANTHUS
by Shelley Blignaut (Author)
Violet has always known that her sister, Arina, is different. Not only does she have strangely elongated ears, close-to-translucent skin, and an abnormally skinny, long body-but animals are drawn to her; grass turns green under her feet. And then there are those even stranger, subtler abilities . . .
It has been seventeen years since the elven monarchy was overthrown by a more democratic, technologically advanced human race. The elves have always referred to the humans as “Ordinaries,” but Violet has never minded the derogatory name. She is content being an Ordinary, growing up outside the city. And she loves her sister despite the fact that they don’t share the same blood.
