Nemesis

True North is proud to announce the release of Nemesis by Best-Selling Author - Elisabetta L. Faenza. Elisabetta found inspiration for Nemesis in the great works of magical realism and science fiction by authors Gabriel Garcia Marquez and Robert A. Heinlein. Elisabetta has a fascination with historical anomalies, cosmology, neuroscience and quantum physics, and has poured these into Nemesis. The book began as a journey of love, a gift from the author to her partner, created when she was so broke she couldn’t afford to buy him a Christmas present, so she wrote one instead. It is the story of how two broken people from different worlds, find each other and make themselves whole.. Caught between worlds, our heroes - John and Alcyone - struggle to protect the future of their planets. Threatened by a rogue sun, the lives of billions hang in the balance as John and Alcyone battle to keep themselves and their worlds alive. It all began with an accident, propelling one man from his world to hers. From dream to reality, John goes on a journey of self-discovery, passion and awakening as the lovers slide between universes. What John doesn’t know is the truth behind his journey. It will shock the very foundations of everything he has ever believed. Come on a fast paced journey across three continents and two dimensions. You won’t need your passport - just hang on for the ride, if you dare…

Elisabetta Faenza As the daughter of an Australian school teacher and an Italian immigrant, I was raised between two cultures, and gained a love for language and story telling at an early age. In the 1960s and 70s Australian was predominantly white, Anglo-Saxon, and so a very olive skinned, blue-eyed child stood out, and I was often referred to as a half-caste. Sounds ridiculous now, but Australia was a much less sophisticated place back then. Being the outsider influenced my view of the world, and made me an observer of people, behavior and culture - something that has been very valuable as a writer. I studied languages and psychology at university as an undergraduate and have a Master's Degree in International Relations, which I completed in my early thirties. I'm also a qualified hypnotherapist and MBTI personality profiler, which really helps me to shape each character's psyche. I've had a life long love of history, people and the places they live, love and die in. I began the research for The Infidel and Veritas over twenty-five years ago and am working on both the prequel to the series - Paul the Assassin, and the sequel to Veritas - Faventia, both due for release in 2016. I live near Braidwood in Australia, with my partner and four children, where I also assists environmental and social enterprises, and indulge my love of the arts and growing food.
