About the Author:
Robert Scott was born in New York. He studied music; the Thomas J. Watson Fellowship enabled him to study and perform throughout Europe. He has a Masters degree in education and a doctorate in educational leadership and policy study. He and his wife Karen live in northern Virginia with their two children. Jay Gordon was born and raised in Brooklyn. His Masters degree and career in business management was followed by a second career in IT during the early years of the personal computer. He died in 2005, shortly after finishing the final book inthe Eldarn Sequance Jay Gordon was born in New York. Before his death in 2005 Jay worked as a business programmer before becoming a network management specialist. In New Jersey he founded an independent consulting firm building corporate network and technology systems. The Hickory Staff was Jay's first work of fiction. He is survived by his wife and two daughters.
From Publishers Weekly:
This hefty debut from the late Gordon (1944–2005) and his son-in-law Scott launches a sprawling fantasy trilogy with touches of effective horror. After a lengthy setup, timid bank manager Steven Taylor, athletic history teacher Mark Jenkins and law student Hannah Sorenson fall through a magical tapestry into a politically complex world under the dominion of body-hopping demonic sorcerer Nerak. Several independent subplots and an unwieldy supporting cast slowly draw together as Steven discovers his budding magical powers, Mark finds romance with a fierce resistance fighter and Hannah seeks a way home. Though somewhat unfocused in their plotting and often rehashing standard fantasy elements, Scott and Gordon keep the story moving entertainingly to the end, less a conclusion than a pause before the simultaneously released sequel. (Jan.)
