Join us for a virtual author chat with NJRW author, Vicky Burkholder.

Vicky Burkholder lives in a small town in southeastern Pennsylvania. She has been married forever to the one man who accepts that she sometimes lives in a fantasy world or among the stars. At various times in her life, she has been a teacher, a secretary, a short-order cook, a DJ, a newspaper journalist, and a librarian. When not busy reading, editing or critiquing, she can be found puttering around the kitchen, baking gluten free goodies or working on crafts. Vicky learned to love reading and writing at a young age thanks to her father. They spent long hours together doing crossword puzzles and word games. By the time she was in junior high, Shakespeare and the Greek tragedies shared book space with the likes of Marguerite Henry, Walter Farley, and Carolyn Keene. While her tastes have grown up, her love of a good story hasn’t. As a writer, she writes fantasy, science fiction, paranormal and romance novels and novellas.

Found Among the Stars by Vicky Burkholder

Even in outer space there are dictators. Eiko, a crystal hunter for the Massaki people escapes marriage to a man she reviles. Forced to flee, she mourns the loss of her fiance' Hopper who disappeared thirteen years ago.
Hopper's life is torn apart when he is kidnapped. His mind and body abused--leaving him with no memory of the past. Now, as captain of the ship Amaya, he finds information about the woman who haunts his dreams.
Trapped and injured, Eiko is startled to find Hopper is not dead. His attempt to save her is derailed when some of the same forces who put his kidnapping into place abduct Eiko. Can Hopper, with Amaya, his living ship, their friends and the Blessed Three bring down a dictatorship or die taking a stand for honor and right?
