Short description

In 1989, Susan Trudeau--the woman who later would become known as author and Earth Mage Smoky Trudeau Zeidel, was struck by lightning. This is the remarkable tale of her ordeal, her struggle to overcome physical injuries that would have killed most people, and her triumph in learning to live a life of joy and inspiration despite chronic pain.

This extraordinary true life tale is riveting, not only because of the events it relates but also because the author is a beautiful writer whose prose caries you along effortlessly.

I don't want to go into detail about it and spoil the effect for other readers. I'll just say that I was astounded, moved, aghast, delighted, and ultimately awed. When I finished it, I wanted to turn around and read it all over again — for sheer pleasure, despite the horrific aspects. It's so short that I could easily do that.

Above all, its a story of tremendously inspiring courage.
