The
Dark Road
The
Jonmarc Vahanian Adventures Vol 2
“May
you lose all you love to the flame and the sword—and the Dark Lady
take your soul!”
Jonmarc
Vahanian fled from the raiders and monsters that killed his family,
but when danger dogs his steps once again, he leaves the traveling
caravan that gave him shelter to become a mercenary in nearby
Principality. His fighting skills help him rise through the ranks,
and draw the attention of a Nargi general—and the general’s
undead mage. An old, unsettled score turns deadly, trapping Jonmarc
in dangerous intrigue. He can save himself—and betray everything he
holds dear—or die a hero as the raider’s curse holds true.
This
collection is the second set of short stories and novellas that
reveal another phase of Jonmarc’s growth from a blacksmith’s son
to becoming one of the greatest warriors in the history of the Winter
Kingdoms.

Writing
the Serialized Novel
By
Gail Z. Martin
The
stories in The Shadowed Path were originally released individually,
as short stories and novellas, but they were always conceived as one
continuous tale. The idea of releasing a novel by the chapter or
section isn’t new—Charles Dickens wrote many of his novels this
way, publishing them a bit at a time in the popular magazines of the
day, back in the 1800s. The Shadowed Path presents the entire first
novel of Jonmarc Vahanian’s rise from fishing village to legendary
warrior.
Writing
a serialized novel is a little more challenging than a regular book.
Since each section is released as it’s finished, you need to have
the whole story firmly in mind, because you can’t go back and
change earlier parts if you get a great idea halfway through! For the
reader, it’s a bit like watching a TV series live instead of being
able to binge on Netflix at the end of the season. If I’ve done my
job right, I keep you on the edge of your seat, wanting to ‘tune in
again next week’ to find out what happens next!
Fortunately,
The Shadowed Path collects all of the ‘first season’ of Jonmarc
Vahanian stories, so you don’t have to wait!
