The Gorgon's Gaze
The Gorgon's Gaze
The dark eyes of the gorgon blazed at Connie, beating down upon her with awesome power. Connie felt a burning coldness scorching her skin, entering her flesh and freezing her to the spot. Now the gorgon would begin the slow process of killing her, turning her pounding heart to stone...
Mallins Wood is under threat, and with it the home of the last remaining gorgon - a mythical creature that can kill with a look. Only a handful of people know that she still exists. Col and his mother are among them, and both are determined to save her, and the forest.
While Col tries to rally support amongst the locals, his mum is hatching a more deadly plan. Egged on by the evil shapeshifter Kullervo, she is ready to sacrifice Col’s best friend, Connie, to protect the gorgon. But first she needs Col to lure Connie to the gorgon’s lair...

Hello Julia, I love your books!!! I've finished the first two and am waiting (impatiently) for the third one at the moment (I ordered it off of Ebay.) I, myself , write fiction books for fun. They're based on mythical creatures, too, but they're nothing like your stories, so don't worry!! Signing off, Erin Balserak P.S. Please don't write anything with snow sprites, they're mine!!! (I allow myself all sorts of sprites - water, wood, stone etc but you are welcome to dream up your own! Julia)

yooooooo i want more books 4 the companions quartet plzzzzzzzzzz
Brianna wrote on 03 March 2009:
Have you ever thought about making Companion's Quartet a series of books like the clique? I know quartet means four and there are only four books in the series, but your fans are begging for more. Also, do you have any tips for an aspiring writer? Thanks a bunch. You inspire me. Bri (Hi Bri, I'm thinking of more. Is the Clique written by a single person or is it a group of writers under one name - some series are like that and so can do much more in a short time. See FAQs on contact page for tips. J)
