A Conversation with Sarah Ickes
Episode #44:
A Conversation with Sarah Ickes (September 2, 2025) As we take a fantasy
detour from traditional mysteries, Author Sarah Ickes introduces us to the
Olde Realm in her Action/Adventure book, “Written Wings.” We get to
meet Vectra Tillerman, a powerful guardian who leads two siblings on an
adventure to find their kidnapped brother. In a place where Ancient
Greeks enter your dreams, mythical creatures are all around, and others
give chase for the end reward, will the kids discover the truth about
their parents? Also discussed is the larger world that Sarah is building
with her stories; which all started with her mystery series featuring
Murial Robertson in America 1880s. And did you know that she is an
artist as well?
