| Introduction | Karen E. Black still lives in Toronto, Canada. Her debut novel about the Devereux cousins "From the Chrysalis" begged for a sequel, so she wrote "Feeling for the Air" about Dace's escape from a corrupt penitentiary system and his dual mission to clear his name and find out where the Canadian monarch butterflies really made their winter home. In "Take to the Sky" the final book in this trilogy about the Devereux cousins, undercover work, a school sex abuse inquiry and monarch butterflies provide surprising plot twists in this gritty, sweeping saga of ex-con Dace and Liza Devereux's complicated family. |
| Interests | Black did her Master's in Library Science at the University of Toronto (because she loved books and research) and completed several certificates at the Institute for Genealogical Studies (because she also loved family history), but she did her undergraduate degree in sociology with a minor in English at the University of Western Ontario. Though Black's first love was and always will be English literature, she is grateful for the insight she gained into social problems, human social relationships and institutions when she studied sociology. |
