About
R. Lennard dreamed of being the headmistress of a boarding school, a jockey, a ballet dancer and a diplomat. At the same time. Two left feet stopped the dancing dream, and a fear of falling stopped the jockey one.
At ten years old, when she discovered that the squiggles on the page actually meant something, she devoured every book in the library before figuring out that she could be all she dreamed of and more if she wrote the book.
Rebecca enjoys learning about ancient civilisations, cosplaying and endless cups of tea. An avid fantasy and sci-fi reader, she fell in love with dragons, space travel, discovering fantastical history and stepping through a cupboard. Fantasy became her home away from home, and she loves to share the worlds she's created with her readers in the YA series, Lissae.
When Rebecca isn't writing, she's masquerading as one of the librarians on the Sunshine Coast. If you want to know when Rebecca's next book will come out, please visit lissae.com where you can sign up to receive emails with exclusive extras and get notified when she has her next release.

The Lissae Series.
Welcome to magic, monsters and mayhem. Lissae is an all slaying, no laying YA dark fantasy series. Join Shari Dawn as she struggles to save the sentient realm of Lissae from all the creatures who want to take it over.
Ronah - An ancient curse unleashes a nightmarish monster, and Shari only has ten days to stop the creature from eating the soul of everyone she loves.
Rakemyst - Covered in the bones of their fallen foe, the Chirea are out to conqure Lissae. Can Shari put her grief aside long enough to stop them?
Talhan - What could possibly go wrong when healing crystal joins with sentience from another realm? Shari finds out, and must stop before the losses become to high.
Cantash - An old foe summons one of her own, and Shari follows along, leaving Lissae in the hands of Jonathan. He only has to stop a civil war while she’s away. If he can.
Ginorti - Shari is missing, the war on Lissae is getting worse, and then there’s the Q’aralide - a dragon like race who’ve decided to come visit. Or take over. Jonathan isn’t sure yet.
Akoren - Innarn is disappearing from Lissae. Can Shari, Jonathan and Samuel figure out what’s going or, or will the ancient stories about the thing hiding in the silence be the end of them all?
Vannali - In the heart-stopping conclusion, Shari must race against time to stop an influx or restless souls before they take over everything.
Why the point 5’s?
But why the point 5’s?
These are the side stories for the characters who wouldn’t leave me alone. Their tales where begging to be told, but it would interrupt the flow of the main story. So they lucked out and got their own books.
There are more point 5’s on the way

What is a book wyrm? Well, a book worm devours books, a book dragon hoards them and a book wyrm does both.
