Petra Durst-Benning has developed a loyal following for her well-researched historical novels in her native Germany, where she lives with her husband. She has written more than a dozen books, many of which have gone on to be bestsellers. Durst-Benning's love of the US dates back many years. She visited frequently as a child and developed a passion for American bestsellers, which went on to inspire her own writing career in later years. The Glassblower's English-language debut is, in many ways, the fulfillment of a girlhood dream. A greeting from the author: "Hi, my Name is Petra, I'm a German Author and in the last 20 years I have written more than fifteen novels, most of which have become bestsellers. Some were also transformed into movies in German Television - that was an exciting experience! But even more exciting for me is the fact that my books are now published in English. This is a lifelong dream come true for me ... For me my big success in America is still unbelievable. I cannot thank you enough for your affection of my "Glassblower-trilogy." It is such a great joy to see those thousands of happy customer reviews, it really makes my heart laugh with gladness. Thank you!!! Now I wish you all a lot of wonderful reading hours with my new "Century wind-trilogy". When you meet Josefine, Clara and Isabelle, please tell them Hello from me! If you want to read more about me, please visit my homepage www.durst-benning.com, where you will find an extra section in English. With lots of love - Petra"
