Tortured: RavenCroft #2 (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781515191377)

Vortigern Black is the pseudonym for an author of more than one genre. With a vast imagination and an uncanny ability to be able to view the world from more than one perspective Vortigern originally started her writing career as Delaine Christine, a contemporary Christian fiction author. Recognizing that faith based supernatural fantasy and secular paranormal fantasy can, and is, perceived in more than one way, Vortigern Black strives to broach both perspectives in two separate series. Readers of Vortigern Black's RavenCroft series should anticipate mysterious and suspenseful story line's including flawed characters with paranormal powers and, often times, poor judgment. The story's within the RavenCroft series of novella's run somewhat parallel to The Blackthorne Saga novels which are written under the aforementioned pen name Delaine Christine. Though Vortigern wrote the first three of The Blackthorne Saga first, the RavenCroft Series actually begins the vast and complex universal story which will eventually combine the two in the future. Vortigern Black - and her alter ego - resides in Elkhart, Indiana with a guardian for a husband and three energetic children who frequently tease her over her dill pickle fetish. Giant blueprint drawings of the RavenCroft and Blackthorne 'ranch' homes adorn her living room walls, along with vast family trees for the family's of both series, and a list of future novels as long as her arm.
