never die ...
Sixteen-year-old
Emily Haven, heroine of the girls’ hockey team at Lindsey High, has
spent her young life keeping two secrets: her rapidly deteriorating
home life and the seemingly supernatural power that makes her a star
on the ice. When she begins seeing visions of a ragged boy reflected
in mirrors and shop windows, a series of events unfolds that tears
her from twenty-first century Minneapolis and leaves her stranded in
another world with horrors to rival those she has left behind. Lost
amidst creatures of fantasy and legend, she is forced to confront the
demons of both her past and future to unravel the riddle of the
mysterious boy and embark upon a journey to uncover long forgotten
histories and the dark, cloaked figure in the shadows behind them
all. Caught between opposing forces of a war she does not understand,
Emily must find new strength within herself and, above all, the will
to remember her friends.

Forever
is comprised of nows...
Emily
Haven and her friends have been given the seemingly impossible task
of uniting the worlds—a mission they failed once before, in another
lifetime.
But
Emily made a promise, and she intends to keep it. A small boy risked
his life to save hers, and while Michael sets out to rejoin the
Dragon’s Brood, she heads east with Celine and Corbbmacc to rescue
Daniel from a band of desert slavers.
Time
does not stand still, however, and the dark legends are true. They
deal in blue fire; they deal in death; and they travel through the
long nights on autumn winds.
Samhain
has come, and this year, the harvest will be in blood, gold, and
souls.
Harmony's

A
Dragon's Brood Cycle Tale
Life
is hard for Daniel and the other kids who struggle to live on the
streets of Ravenhold, a seaside city allied with the sorceress
Marianne and the kingdom of Seven Skies. There is seldom enough to
eat, and the nights are cold, but Daniel finds warmth and friendship
when he meets the enigmatic Harmony. Their special bond, coupled with
the mystery of Harmony’s past, sends Daniel from his life on the
streets to the wider world beyond in this short story prequel to
Haven Lost and the Dragon’s Brood Cycle.

A
Dragon's Brood Cycle Tale
Before
she was a prisoner in Marianne's crystal mines or just another face
among the multitudes in the city of Seven Skies, Maddy had a
different name and everything she could want—governesses, gowns,
and gold to fill her pockets. And though she wasn't the son her
father had wanted, it was inevitable that one day she would inherit
his title.
But
Maddy's predictable world is turned upside down when an extraordinary
servant girl challenges everything she's ever known; there's a wider
world beyond the comfortable confines of her castle, full of wonder
and magic, and Maddy finds that the one thing she doesn't have is the
only thing she really needs.

GUEST POST
Literary
Inspirations: Midnight Royalty
I
read a lot, and while inspiration in my fiction comes from far more
sources than just literature, it is worth examining who has shaped my
writing the most. There are two authors who have influenced my style
of writing more than any others.
First
and foremost is Stephen King, the master storyteller himself. King is
best known for his horror, at least in the public consciousness, but
horror constitutes only a small portion of his catalog. As a fantasy
fan, his The
Dark Tower
saga has been a massive influence on my writing. Stylistically, I've
taken much of his advice in his memoir On
Writing
to heart, and that book has served as a kind of literary handbook for
me.
More
than any other author, there is a realism to King's work that
transcends the (generally) supernatural situations, environments, and
characters he dreams up, and I consider that realism to be crucial in
my own work. I've been reading his books since I was around
twelve-years-old, and it is safe to say that without his body of
work, I would not be writing today.
Second
only to Stephen King is Anne Rice, whose magical worlds of witches
and vampires are so richly described that you feel like you're
standing on the streets of nineteenth century New Orleans, eighteenth
century France, or seventeenth century Scotland. She can place you at
the heart of the Roman empire or Edwardian England, and by the time
you come up for air, you feel like you've lived through that era.
When
I write, I want to envelope the reader in the world I'm creating. I
don't want them to just
see it as I do; I want them to feel the wind blow through their hair,
hear the crunch of autumn leaves beneath their boots, smell the smoke
of a raging blaze, or taste the fragment of sweet cake scavenged by a
street urchin. It was Rice who taught me how to do these things, and
much more.
There
are so many other authors who have contributed odds and ends to my
writing arsenal—Rachel Aaron, Harry Harrison, Terry Brooks, and a
thousand others. But none have had a greater impact than the king and
queen of darkness.
