Book Overview

Fifteen-year-old Nara Dall has never liked secrets. Yet it seems that her life has been filled with them, from the ugly scar on her back to the strange powers she possesses. Her adoptive father refuses to say anything about her origins, and soon, she and her best friend must attend the announcement ceremony, in which youths are tested for a magical gift.

A gifted youth has not been announced in the poor village of Dimmitt for decades. When Nara uncovers the reason, she uses her own powers to make things right. The decision sets her on a path of danger, discovery, and a search for the divine. In the process, she learns the truth about herself and uncovers the biggest secret of all: the power of broken people.

Looking for Dei is written with multiple perspectives to provide a rich story-telling experience. Much of the positive feedback has been associated with great world-building, a gripping pace, and a unique, believable magic system.

The story is heavy with action, vibrant villains, and great plot twists. Some themes that should appeal to both youthful and more mature readers are how fear prevents positive action, how those who experience pain often spread it around, and how every human being has a vast, inherent value.

About David A. Willson

David Allen Willson was born in Seattle, Washington, on June 30, 1942, on what his mother remembered as the hottest day of the summer. During WWII, while his father served as a Marine on Iwo Jima, he lived with his mother in a series of tourist cabins in California, in his maternal grandmother's Seattle Basement, and in a boxcar in Montana. He learned to write in first grade in Missoula, Montana, and realized then that he wanted to grow up to write books-probably about war, as there was so much of it to write about. As fate would have it, he had the chance to experience war first-hand-appropriately, behind a typewriter: he was drafted into the U. S. Army in the '60's and sent to Viet Nam. He was the best soldier he knew how to be, and he received the Army Commendation Medal for his service in the Inspector General's Office. For war writing, he has published three semi-autobiographical novels: REMF Diary, The REMF Returns, and In the Army Now. And now this volume. David has been the editor of Viet Nam Generation Journal, and a contributor to Vietnam War Literature: An Annotated Bibliography. He has been a regular reviewer of war literature for both print and on-line editions of VVA (Vietnam Veterans of America) Veteran, and has authored many other articles for the magazine, including an account of his VA treatment for Multiple Myeloma, related to the Agent Orange he was exposed to in the water at Long Binh, where he served in Viet Nam
