The Jade Crown, Book I: The Hidden City by Mark J. Donovan

The Jade Crown, Book I: The Hidden City by Mark J. Donovan

A doomed expedition discovers an ancient secret in the mountains.

Against his better judgment, Garruth – a mercenary – joins a voyage of discovery to try and pass through an unconquered mountain range. The explorers believe they will find the remnants of a long-lost civilization on the other side; Garruth would settle for a few answers.

What they find is a secretive people that prefer their privacy, and are willing to kill to protect it. Yet the ancient sword that the mercenary carries seems to be of interest to this people’s beautiful sorceress, and her promise to help him find the answers he seeks ensnares Garruth in a web of political intrigue, betrayal, and espionage.

Now the mercenary will have to try stay alive in this dangerous place long enough to finally discover what happened to him so many years ago, and what role his invaluable sword played in creating him; and maybe – if he’s unusually lucky – even earn a bit of gold along the way.

The Forbearing Mage: The Adventures of Jack Wartnose by A. S. Norris

The Forbearing Mage: The Adventures of Jack Wartnose by A. S. Norris

They say blood is thicker than water.

Unfortunately, if Jack Wartnose is not careful, it will be his blood proving that axiom!

Still on the trail of the Tome of Time, novice Mage Jack Wartnose is confronted by another spectre of his past – Margaret Stormgale, his estranged and vengeful daughter. When she’s not hounding him with her razor-tongue wit, she’s hunting him with her mother’s razor-sharp spear!

But if grappling with the sins of his past wasn’t perilous enough, the disdainful eye of the Inquisition draws down upon him and his quest. And who should be at the tip of the Inquisition’s spear but yet another of Wartnose’s former “acquaintances.”

With all eyes bearing down upon him, can Jack Wartnose continue his quest for not only the Tome of Time, but for atonement? Or will he fall victim to one of the many foes set against him: his estranged daughter, a jilted Inquisition lover, his suspicious superiors at the Mage Council, a sinister figure now shadowing his quest for the tome… or his none-to-pleased wife?

Magical New Beginnings by Brenda Trim

Magical New Beginnings by Brenda Trim

When life goes sideways, embracing the adventure is the fastest way to set things right.

One day I was just a widow facing the prospect of an empty nest, living a life that was anything but enchanted. The next, I had discovered my magical roots, and my rightful place as the Guardian of the portal between the Faery and Earth.

There was shock. And there was fear. After all, no one plans to start over at forty-five. I intended to grow old with my husband. I thought we’d live an ordinary life. So I’ll be damned if I’m going to waste this opportunity to live in a world I always thought was imaginary.

I’m half-witch, half-faery, and facing dangers as real as the ache in my bad knee. Ibuprofen and caffeine keep me going, and I could do this for the rest of my life. Whoever thinks my family home is an easy mark better take notice: the new Guardian in town isn’t going down without a fight.

After all, she’s already learned to let go of her simple existence and believe in the extraordinary power inside of her. What could possibly stop her now?

About Mistress of the Dark Lore: Book Three: Saga of the Six Realms:

Handed the poison chalice, the Empress must solve a mystery and win a war.

Following her spectacular coronation, Mu is invaded by giant, heavily armoured knights. Seizing the moment, the Empress turns her coronation into a War Council and sends everyone packing to defend their realms.

Equally unexpected was the materialisation of a magic key in her pocket, one bequeathed in utmost secrecy by her predecessor before his murder. That it should turn up on her coronation day, the Empress didn’t dismiss as a coincidence. “What secrets does it unlock, and why now, Constantine? Did you plan this knowing your fate?” she wondered.

The Guardians of Celesk : Part 1 by R.I.Lockett

About The Guardians of Celesk : Part 1 by R.I.Lockett:

It came during the most desperate of times, after a reign of bloodshed. It thundered on in spite of terror, hopelessness and the great chain of inequity. It shattered shackles and in its momentum gathered all in its wake. It was hope.

In the new era, it rewrote the narrative and finally set the world free.

Yet in the new age, the tides of war and revolution bring an old enemy of the Guardians, the Exile, who will destroy their sanctum and wreak destruction upon their lands. Their only hope lies in the form of a powerful child, and she will need to be trained..
