The Chronology Series
When I first heard the news that a new version of Creatures was coming out, I started to wonder what Albia would be like many years down the line, and how the norns would evolve. This led to an idea for a story, which, when I started writing it, evolved into a set of three interlinked stories, taking place over the length of a norn's life. I suggest you read them through more than once- you may notice details that aren't immediately obvious.

It's not your average "Breeder's Story"- there is a lot of dark emotion and intense scenes... this is not one to read to your children! That aside, I hope you enjoy it!

Donell Meadows, aka Moca, has made some wonderful drawings of scenes in the trilogy. I've given her her own page dedicated to them. Click Here to reach them.
