Hi Ratha fans!

This is  author Clare Bell announcing that a new Ratha novel,
Ratha's Courage,  was released as an E-Reads E-book (electronic book) on 4/9/08.  The original publisher was Viking Penguin, but they inexplicably cancelled. Firebird Books Editor Sharyn November had encouraged me to write another Ratha, saying that a new novel of the Clan could push the others back into print.  Firebird also issued the other Ratha books as paperbacks.  The Firebird editions of Ratha's Creature and Clan Ground appeared July 18, 2007. Ratha and Thistle-chaser  plus Ratha's Challenge  followed in Fall  2007.

Watch a video clip from the CBS Storybreak animated episode of Ratha's Creature. (Click on Ratha to see the video.)  This is the scene where she first learns how to tame and feed the Red Tongue (fire).  Here, she is blowing on the embers to raise a flame.  This and other clips are on MySpace TV and YouTube.
