Читать книгу The Sword Dancer - Jeannie Lin, Jeannie Lin - Страница 6

First of all, to my husband, Fritz.

Though a dedication is a small prize after

being dubbed ‘The Greatest Dad in the World’ (with the shirt

to prove it), this book would not have been possible

without your love, support and laughter.

I must thank my editor Anna Boatman

for her patience and guidance in helping me turn

scattered ideas into a coherent story. Also a thank-you

to Gail Fortune, my agent and avid cheerleader.

THE SWORD DANCER wouldn’t have been possible

without the tough love and critical eye of authors

Bria Quinlan and Inez Kelley, as well as the

continued support of my local critique group:

Shawntelle Madison, Amanda Freeman,

Kristi Lea and Dawn Blankenship.

Thank you to Giovani Dambros and Phillip Puzzo

from Team TRICKset for the information and demos

on freerunning. For assistance in providing historical

insight and extensive research materials I must credit

wuxia author John Dishon.

Though this story has many influences,

I must give a nod to Jennifer Roberson’s fantasy novel

Sword Dancer—the book that convinced me that there’s nothing sexier than a hero and heroine who can cross swords. And finally to Jackie Chan. Enough said.
