INTERVIEW WITH LYNNE HILL-CLARK (Of Lords and Commoners)
Here we are, almost to the end of the month. Was it a better one for you? It's looking fab for us today, as we have author Lynne Hill-Clark here with us to answer a few questions.
SC: Tell me a little bit about your main character of this book
LHC: Baya is a super tough young woman. Not in the fighting,
kick-ass sense but in mind and body. She carries the weight of the world on her
shoulders and perseveres through more than anyone I’ve ever heard of. She was
born into a leadership role. Even though she is reluctant to be a leader, the
skill comes naturally to her. She is infinitely fair and loves deeply. Her
biggest fault is jealousy that rears its ugly head from time to time.
SC: Speaking of things rearing their ugly heads from time to time… do
you believe in the paranormal and if so, do you have an experience you can
share?
LHC: Boy
that is tough. Well, for better or worse, vampires don’t exist. Witches, on the
other hand, that is a matter of debate. I think we all have abilities beyond
what most of us know or use on a daily basis. It isn’t really magic in the
sense of say, Harry Potter, but rather we can learn to manipulate or use the energy
around us. And we can tap into an intuition that guides us on the right path.
Some people might call this magic but I call it our natural abilities that most
people haven’t utilized or tapped into.
SC: What titles are you working on now that you can tell us about?
LHC: I’m currently writing the 3rd book
in the Woman’s World series. Which is a companion series to my first
trilogy, Lords and Commoners. A Woman’s World is about a
primitive culture on a distant planet were women have mystifying powers that
keep men subservient. I got the idea for this world from my time in Jordan as a
Peace Corps Volunteer. I took a very conservative Muslim society and reversed
the gender roles. When the shoe is on the other foot, the ugliness of sexism
becomes even more obvious.

Vallachia doesn’t know much…
But she does know that she loves her simple life.
This becomes even more apparent when that life is ripped from her.
Who will care for her widowed father and younger brother?
But she doesn’t have time to worry about that when she has to learn how to keep herself alive.
Not to mention she has to constantly thwart unwanted male attention.
She quickly finds herself on the wrong side of a brewing battle for vampire domination.
Not knowing whom to trust could have fatal consequences …
For everyone.
Live through the latter part of the Byzantine Empire and into the dark times of the Black Plague, where our heroine finds herself fighting to defend humankind.
The only future Vallachia could have imagined, as well as her wonderfully simple life, disappears when she finds herself in a struggle to figure out the rules of a strange new world - a world that involves superhuman strength, heightened senses and inescapable bloodlust. She must make new allies and learn the ways of supernatural politics during the decline of the Byzantine Empire.
As the pressure mounts, she faces the deadliest pandemic in history as the battle for vampire domination rages across Europe.
This is the first installment of the Lords and Commoners Trilogy written from the viewpoint of a common girl forced to contend with powerful vampires and lords in a struggle to control the world.
Both history fanatics and supernatural fans will love this story as it provides a fresh new look at the dark days of the Black Plague and a glimpse into the paranormal conflicts that are hidden in the shadows.
Fair warning: It will leave you wanting more. So don’t forget to check out the other books in the Lords and Commoners Trilogy…
