The Emissary's Catalyst
註釋Review for A Crack in the World, Injira Book I
"Author Deborah L. Rhodes has crafted a fanciful, cinematic, and extremely poignant work that toys with your consciousness and your own ideas about the world as you read it, which was really refreshing and exciting to find in a modern speculative novel.

One of the most striking features for me was the description of Shona's actions and her relationship with the physical world, which always carried this ethereal air about it, and a very abstract approach that intensified the metaphysical elements of storytelling.
I loved the voyage of discovery that the novel delivers at a good, engrossing pace and the overall messages we glean about the world and our own journey to find our place within it."
--Readers' Favorite (5-Star Review)
For over two centuries, the Ocan people have protected the secret of a subterranean source of power that lies in a place called 'the in-between'. This energy has genetically enhanced the Ocan people and it can also help rid the Earth of a deadly virus that has ravaged much of humankind. However, only the Emissary can directly access the energy and the Ocan people have not yet found their Emissary.
Blending elements of speculative fiction (i.e., fantasy and science fiction), the Injira series delves into the mysterious world of the Ocan island, where an isolated group of people have created a utopian community. In The Emissary's Catalyst (the second book in this series), Taijaur and Shona are reunited as they continue their quest to find an ancient source of power. With Taijaur standing guard, Shona must venture through an opening between worlds, risking her life, her sanity, and the future of the Ocan.
