    About this ebook

    Everything is dead or dying. How can anyone live in this atmosphere? They can’t.
    I can’t.

    Eli’ane is a dying planet. With a sun and moon that burn bright and hot like a furnace, the plants die, the red dirt amplifies the hard living. When the pickings are slim, the people do what they must to survive.

    Day after day Ellie is asked by her father if she had her vitamins. Her husbands Jack, Stone, and Jeremiah pester her about them as well.

    All her life she was of the mindset that the vitamins were for her own good. To protect her from the people of the planet. Ellie lives. They don’t. So why the exhaustion? Why does it seem that the more vitamins her father gives her, the more exhausted she becomes? What is wrong with her? Just what is she becoming?

    This is the third book in The Guardian of Life series from Kim Iverson, which blends Science Fiction and Fantasy, with a sprinkling of Horror.

    Kim Iverson

    In this place, you’re expecting a brilliant smudge of text. Well, I'm just a woman, pursuing my dreams, hoping to live my life however I was meant to. I prefer to do things out of the box, which means for here too. No longer fitting into “what’s right,” or “how it’s done,” I'm leaving that behind. So from me to you, I hope that my books allow you the same escape reading provided me as a kid. It brings me such happiness to take care of others around me so I'll be good if all I ever achieve is to put a smile on someone's face and show them kindness. To know I've loved courageously and shown the world that it's okay to be yourself. If you’d love to stop in and get to know me, come by my site - kimberlysueiverson.com. You’ll find me on social networks linked from there too. I post daily questions, far too many pictures of my dogs, gardening, crochet projects, castles and antique things I love, and just try to brighten your day as much as mine. If that means being goofy, well, that’s me. Some of my favorite writers are: Stephen King, Dean Koontz, George R.R. Martin, Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child, James Patterson, Michael Crichton, Anne Rice, and Keri Arthur to name a few. I only just now discovered the love of J.K. Rowling (I know, I'm late to that party!) so I'm throwing her in there too. It's lovely to meet you. My door is always open so come on by and hang with me on the porch.
