More beasts filed in. When the last few entered the room, the floor began to vibrate. The monsters fell over each other, some taking flight, unable to stand. Then the floor erupted with a force of hundreds of pounds of volatile explosives. Sabine directed most of the blast upward, blowing the domed ceiling free from the building and into the night sky. Protected by a simple spell, she was unhurt from the blast but whirled out of control in the air. Many of the hideous monsters in her pursuit were obliterated instantly, but as she steadied herself to a hover, she saw that many more winged creatures had taken flight from other areas of the building. They swarmed toward her. She did what she could to blast them out of the sky, but one slipped behind and clenched her delicate neck in its powerful claws. She writhed and tried to scream, but the beast robbed her of her strength and wits. The creature held her against its body, its mighty wings beating heavily, and bore her away to it master.

Becoming an author was about the last thing Devin ever expected. When he was in junior high school, he wished to put his talents in music and theatre to use, and if anyone asked him, What do you want to be when you grow up? he normally would say, An actor. His love for music and theatre continued throughout high school, but so did his passion for science. When he was nineteen years old, he was determined to go to medical school to become either a doctor or a genetic engineer. But, it was after a two-year stay in France that much of that changed. He heeded the prompting to start writing a story that had been brewing in his mind for the past year or so, and many months later, he completed the manuscript for As Magic Shifts. He still pursues a career in medicine at the University of Utah, but he cannot ignore the calling to be a writer. This book is just the beginning of many more to come. Devin's second book, The Witch s Pupil, will be released in 2009.
