Introducing myself

Hello, I’m Amy!

I live in Auckland, New Zealand, and have done for three-quarters of my life. The other quarter was spent in England, where my kids were born. I have three of those, and they’re very cool. I’m a bit demented and thought it would be a good idea to have them a year or so apart. I’m still recovering from that misguided notion, but am convinced that a month in Bora Bora would set me right!

Speaking of travelling, as much as I crave a tropical island escape, you’re far more inclined to find me hankering after snow. We don’t have any of that in Auckland – not a drop!

Hi Hana

I'm glad you enjoyed The Furyck Saga. Yes, the ending is very sad, and though I wrote it and chose it, it still always makes me cry, no matter how many times I read it. You’re not alone there!

My new series, The Lords of Alekka, is out now and Book Four is going on pre-sale this week with a November release date. It is set in Alekka, starting at the time The Furyck Saga ends. There is some crossover, and the odd Furyck Saga character will be making an appearance, though I can’t say who!

Very best wishes

Amy

So, I wrote a new book. A prequel novella.

Hello!

After finishing Vale of the Gods, I had an immediate urge to turn back the clock. As an author, it’s quite hard to kill off some of your characters. Some, you take pleasure in (we can probably agree on who those might be!), but others affect you (still do). I really debated the end of Vale of the Gods, and half wondered if I should go back in, tweak it, and make myself cry less! But, of cour Read more of this blog post »

“Time will do that to memories,’ Morac said wryly. ‘It twists and shapes them into whatever we want them to be. Whatever comforts us and allows us to sleep at night. Eirik is not alone in that.”
A.E. Rayne, Winter's Fury

“I believe in you,’ he said. ‘So turn off all the voices in your head. Shut them all out. Don’t listen to any of them. Put one foot in front of the other. That’s it. Leave everything else alone.’ Jael frowned. ‘You can’t look back. What has happened is done. What is coming will come. And you’ll have all of us, right there beside you. All”
A.E. Rayne, Vale of the Gods

“You can’t look back. What has happened is done. What is coming will come.”
A.E. Rayne, Vale of the Gods
