title: Battle for the Realm: Book 8
author: Laqaixit Tewee
description: LAQAIXIT TEWEE enjoyed writing this eight-book, multiple-story adventure drawing upon her life experiences both as a child growing up in a rural environment and as an world traveler. In this final Magical Swan episode, the author causes the conclusion of the Silverrealm epic to have a surprise twist that unites all of the Winterbloom and Magical Swan - Series I - books, and The Magical Swan and the Chronicles of Silverrealm Series II - stories together at last. Twenty-five years after having begun the story by hand and having gone through 4 computer crashes she is grateful to see it finally published. Had she known at the start that she would be painting a total of 465 illustrations for the entire series under her artist name Dancing Light she might not have had the courage to publish such a large endeavor.
