While their origins may be a mystery, there are hints of their true nature buried in the songs they have passed down for generations.īronwyn Hyatt, a pure-blood Tufa, has always insisting on doing things her own way, regardless of the consequences. Enigmatic and suspicious of outsiders, the Tufa live quiet lives in the hills and valleys of Cloud County.
No one knows where the Tufa came from, or how they ended up in the Smoky Mountains of East Tennessee. … and the synopsis for The Hum and the Shiver:Īn enchanting tale of music and magic older than the hills… In the interest of completeness, here are the covers for the first two Tufa novels (both are published in North America by Tor Books)… You can learn more about the series by visiting Alex Bledsoe‘s and Teresa Frohock‘s websites, and following them on Twitter. But the song is guarded by Diago, one of the Nefilim, a race descended from angels.ĭiago knows only too well that the song’s power may be misused. Can Janet convince him to give up the song, and if so, does she have the wisdom to use it? Janet, a young woman whose forebearers were a race of banished faeries, learns of a song that might allow the Tufa to return to their ancestral home.
Here’s the synopsis for Hisses and Wings: Frohock is also working on a novella for the series, which will be published before the novel. What sparked this post was the cover reveal. Now, December 2015 is a long way away,* but it does mean I’ll have time to read the first two novels in the series before it comes out. The two authors have teamed up to write a Tufa story, which will be published on December 4th, 2015 2014. I have, however, read most of Teresa Frohock’s excellent work. I haven’t read either of Alex Bledsoe’s novels set in his Tufa series - The Hum and the Shiver and The Wisp of a Thing - but they have been on my radar for a long while (so has everything else of Bledsoe’s, actually).
