Wolff\u003c\/b\u003e (Author)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSacrifices is a fantasy novel based after the humans were finally able to claim their freedom. Picking up the pieces after slavery the rulers (known as Wards, blessed with the power of will) built an empire with their capital cities standing strong and their people safe. But now something red is lurking from the west, something that salivates after the utter power that once freed the humans. Join Jezaline, Osondrous and Karalay as they face the breaking of the Wards and the growing certainty that an ancient enemy is lying in wait for just one bad decision. Karalay has long been desperate for companionship, a healer, a scholar that has never known a life that included love, when she finds it, she abandons her place as a Ward to her people. Jezaline is on the move, not even knowing for certain what she is looking for, an incident from her childhood (something she only admits as a nightmare) is calling louder and louder that it was nothing as simple as a rape. Osondrous, young, rash and a warlord since birth, steps up to run the guard, to protect the people. She stands in blind stubbornness, ignoring all warning signs as the red savage from the west breathes harder and harder down her neck.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTarah was born on February 24th, 1986, in Park Rapids, Minnesota. She attended public school for one year (kindergarten) before being placed in a Baptist Christian School for several years until being home schooled. She graduated early from home schooling (2001) and became the club manager at her family's golf course. When she was five years old, her family built and began operating Fair Havens Golf Course and she began work there at the age of fifteen. In 2005, she met a man online from Oklahoma and began a long distance relationship with him. They purchased a home in Durant, Oklahoma, and renovated the entire house by themselves. She learned how to run electrical, patch a roof, drywall, plumbing and countless other manual labors. In this time, Tarah finished most of her work on Sacrifices and she regards those years as the most trying and darkest years of her life. Their relationship ended in August, 2010, when she finally drove home to Minnesota for the last time. When Tarah was eleven years old, she joined The Jackpine Writers' Bloc (www.jackpinewriters.com) based out of her home town of Park Rapids, Minnesota. With the writers' group looking at abandonment along with their literary journal, Tarah, along with her aunt Sharon Harris, took the group over. They restarted the monthly writers' meetings and took control of the group's book, The Talking Stick (www.thetalkingstick.com). They joke yearly that they don't know if they have another book in them. But, after having been a part of publishing sixteen books with The Jackpine Writers' Bloc, it's easy to see how they will continue with their efforts. In their time, the JWB has gone from a little known writers' group to a publication with reports of books sold on the Internet from Alaska to England. In 2005, Tarah started a web and print design business called Web Services of Park Rapids. The business has been successful for her and she continues it to this day. She will be the first to say, though, how badly she simply wishes to support herself by writing for the rest of her life. www.parkrapidsweb.com.
