About Auri

Maggy, mother of 4 cats, can usually be found under a cosy blanket with a thick fantasy or science fiction tome in her hand. And if you don’t find her there, you’ll find her at her PC playing competitive computer games. Surrounded by thousands of books, her favourite book remains The Name of the Wind, which is why she has adopted Auri’s idiosyncrasy for the proper placement of her favourite things.

Synopsis The House is the World. Countless halls line up, staircase to staircase, vestibule to vestibule. While on the lower floor the tides roar and on the upper floor the rooms are impenetrable by cloud fog, it is reasonably safe on the middle floor. Only birds and fish populate the World, along with fifteen people: […]
