Turner 1 9 May 28, Please add title to series 2 12 Nov 01, Please combine editions for the same title 3 12 Nov 01, Kate originally trained as a designer and illustrator; studying at Saint Martins School of Art and Middlesex University in London, and then stayed in London to work in design.

Inspiration for the Chronicles of Fate and Choice books came from a vivid series of dreams. Kate initially tried illustrating her dreams, but found the medium too limiting for the story, so began writing. At first there wasn't any intention of writing novels, but the books soon started to form. Something to touch peoples hearts and minds.

I've experimented with different creative mediums and used to think that perhaps, if I tried hard enough, I would be an okay fine or graphic artist. I didn't think I could write. But then, the more I wrote, the more I wanted to write and the words just poured forth. I found that writing depicted the stories in my head perfectly. It was my eureka moment; I had found my creative medium.

I knew, without a doubt, I had to write. I can visit my familiar stomping grounds in London, and then I can go home to luscious scenery, the gentle hum of the West Country, and a brilliant atmosphere for writing. For me, it's a good balance. Other books in the series.

Chronicles of Fate and Choice 3 books. There is an air of mystery surrounding this book. It is illustrated in an admirably minimalistic way and the blurb on the back cover is vague and enticing. It is not until you begin reading that you have any idea of what exactly it is you are reading and you quickly find yourself involved in interwoven storylines within a tale that feels both fantasy and science fiction.

Featuring themes of fate and choice, Before the Gods presents us with an alternative history; evolution and creation are swept away as we find ourselves on an Earth populated by experimental human beings, created by an advanced race of intergalactic travellers known as the kutu.

Leading the human cast is young Tachra, and I find it pleasing to say that a female lead in fantasy is no longer as show-stopping as once it was although it is still refreshing to see. They are fascinating beings, far more advanced than their human creations, but not without compassion, and the bringing together of the human and kutu story threads is something that Turner handles superbly. The narrative is well-constructed, neither too simple nor too-flowery; just about right for the tale that is being told.

The clever switching of the narrative between the humans and kutu, and between first person and third person helps to raise tension and makes for compelling reading.
