  1. Reading and hearing the excerpts has given me even more to look forward to when the. Ok releases. Osten Ard was an integral part of my teenage years. I’ve read memory, sorrow and thorn so many times that I’ve had to replace my copies more than a few times and happy danced when I discovered them in Ebook format. Thank you for the world you’ve created and for characters in both MST and in the Shadow March worlds, that I could identify with. I cannot wait to be “reunited” with all of my favorites again.
