  SF REVIEWS.NET: Karavans / Jennifer Roberson
Alisanos has long lain dormant like a volcano, but the recent turmoil in Sancorra is stirring it up again.
But Roberson's best idea is Alisanos itself, and I'm happy to say it comes a cropper in a bravura finale that erases any irritation at the chapters of slowly-paced buildup that have preceded it.
For most of the story Alisanos remains in the background, a metaphor for evil as an unpredictable force of nature that pounces on the innocent and guilty alike with equal caprice.

 SCI FI WIRE
Not only is the new world, Alisanos, her first in 23 years, Roberson also had to write about it differently from her other universes.
Alisanos is central to the plot, so Roberson devotes much of Karavans' 425 pages to introductions, a "very challenging" process, she said.
It follows expectant parents Davyd and Audrun as they move their family to a new place under threat from the darkly magical and foreboding Alisanos, a land that can change locale at will and is doing so for the first time in 40 years.

 IONA - Alisanos
Alisanos is a Gaulish god of whom very little is known.
Most of his legend and history have been lost to us and yet we do know that he was a symbol of stone and that though he was a Gaulish god he was also worshipped
This may seem an obvious thing to remark upon now, but it is always good to write statements like this down for the future generations to study, perhaps future generations far flung into the future yet to be, many thousands of years ahead.

According to SRP archaeologist and Tempe resident Richard Anduze, the Hohokam village under present day Alisanos was discovered in the early 1990s and thoroughly documented before a developer paved over it.
SRP was involved in the excavation and documentation of the larger segment of the Hohokam village at Alisanos because it once owned the land before selling it to a home developer, according to Anduze.
