Divination and Disaster

Summary

When divination fails, will disaster automatically follow?

To take her place as a seer, Sibyl first has to pass an exam proving her ability. But not all exams end well. When Sibyl fails her seers exam, she escapes to a family farm to come to terms with her failure. Her stay doesn't bring the relief she expected; instead, she's reminded all over again how much hard work there is to do on a farm in rural Aotearoa New Zealand - and what dangers there are, too.

While Sibyl's unable to divine the future, it seems that everyone around her has already done so. Even so, they may not be able to prevent disaster. Can Sibyl see her way past disaster to a new future?

This novelette is a prequel to Seers and Salt, the first novella in the Woodside Cosy Urban Fantasy series.
