About Me:
R.A. Baker was born in a small town in North Carolina, before his family moved to Virginia. He grew up watching TV shows like "Star Trek" and "The Twighlight Zone", which sparked an interest in sci-fi and fantasy at an early age. R.A. Baker went on to write stories throughout school and college, winning several writing awards and competitions. Soon after college, the author began serious work on the novel "Rayna of Nightwind", but did not complete it until several years later. He is now working on the second novel in the series tentatively titled, "Beyond Irel's Band". R. A.

New Epic Novel Rayna of Nightwind-- Enter The Magical World of Taren!


Order Rayna of Nightwind, The First of the Taren Novels


. . .Rayna and her newfound allies uncover a startling secret about the world's origin-- Library Journal
_____________________________________________________________________________________
In the troubled land of Taren rules a bitter, oppressive regent named Nephredom, who alone maintains the Gate a Psi-magical barrier that contains thousands of mutated beasts, that were once men. However, the strain of keeping the Gate has pushed Nephredom to the edge of madness, and it is only a matter of time before the Gate opens.

Into this world comes an outsider. Following a bizarre lightning storm, college student Rayna Powell finds herself lost and alone in Taren with only her stubborn instincts and logical mind to guide her. She is a student of science, but what she experiences in Taren defies science, and forces her to come to terms with the unknown powers growing inside her. Many of the people of Taren believe Rayna to be a Power –the greatest kind of mage, who holds wields the legendary magic chaotic. Treachery and political strife run rampant as opposing factions clash, with Rayna caught in the middle.

She reluctantly joins forces with a mysterious woman with a bounty (imposed by Nephredom himself) on her head, who in exchange for Rayna s help promises to help Rayna in her quest to return home. However, as they flee and hide from Nephredom s red-robed minions, the price of the stranger s help may be higher than what Rayna is willing to pay.

Come, brave souls...the world of Taren beckons.
