Acquisitions Librarian (Borzoi)
Sybilla
is such a bitch. I hate it when readers compare us. She’s just a city wolf who
wears expensive shoes while I’m trained in special techniques to combat
werewolf attacks. I’m certified in commando assault rifle, field and survival
skills. My hobbies include orienteering, scuba, explosives and camouflage. I’ve
climbed Everest, twice.
I’m
proud to be an instructor of Krav Maga, a form known for its focus on real-world
situations and extremely efficient and brutal counter-attacks.
I worked for ten years with the Mossad in Research, Collections, and Special
Operations to gain experience to intensify our international covert operations.
I achieved the rank of – can’t talk about that – but they all remember me.
I
came to Shipsfeather to train the Academy staff in self-defense and then the curse
came down. I became Head of Academy Security, responsible for keeping one
hundred plus locked-up dog-shifters secure. Non-violence is a dog-shifter credo
but with wolves howling at our doors, get real.
I’m
also the Academy Acquisitions Librarian and Slavic Languages Specialist. In my
spare time I jog and course. When I can find a sparring partner I box and
wrestle. And I practice yoga to slow down my super-achiever mind and to keep me
focused.
Before this curse thing Dr. Thaddeus Perrot and I were engaged. But all that’s on hold.
It’s
confining locked inside, but in a way I like the discipline. I eat, I exercise,
and I work. I’m a born leader and it really torques my tail when Headmaster Chronus
ignores my advice. But I’m his second in command in case of breach of perimeter
and I follow orders.
I definitely should be the heroine of my own book. If Amber wants a kick-ass librarian
heroine, I am ready.
Favorite
Reading: Chekhov, Tolstoy, and anything by Tom Clancy.
