The slaughter of their parents dashed those dreams. Fuelled by vengeance, both embark on the dark path of retribution. From the ancient forest, two great eagles take wing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over four hundred years before the birth of Christ, the island of Ériu is a patchwork of feuding kingdoms, vast plains, and frozen bogs. Battle, intrigue, betrayals, and courage are part of life for the Celts who call Ériu home. At the same time, from their underground halls, the mysterious demi-goddesses of the Aes Sídhe seduce brave warriors, turning men into kings and binding them with fearsome geis.

Two men share responsibility for the massacre: a mad Irish king and a dissolute Roman. Conall will have his vengeance or die in the attempt. Accompanied by his childhood love—the beautiful but dark-spirited—Mórrígan, and the veteran warrior Fearghal, Conall's quest takes him northward through unfriendly kingdoms to a confrontation beyond the ancient earthworks of the Black Pig's Dyke.

Conall and his brooding queen, Mórrígan, lead over two thousand warriors with their followers across the narrow sea separating Ériu from Albu. Their quest: the capture of Cassius Fabius Scaeva, the dissolute Roman held responsible for the slaughter of their families. The Ériu encounter human, natural, and supernatural foes and friends. At the mercy of the Aes Sídhe, a race of demi-goddesses who demand that he fulfil his geis, Conall is named the “Hand of the Goddess” and given the instrument that will crush the Na Daoine Tùrsach—a tribe of fanatical, blood-lusting priests. They battle fierce northern tribes: the Forest People's one-eyed king, Drostan Ruadh, opposes their presence, as do the Na Mèadaidh, led by the sly Finnean Mac Sèitheach. Yet, not all are enemies. The Raven People offer their support, although it too comes at a price. Heroes and villains from myth, legend, and history converge in this saga set in the vast ancient forests, frozen bogs, snow-capped mountains, and mysterious lochs of Scotland some four hundred years before the birth of Christ.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "It is a king's decision," said Brion. "It will not be you who deceives and delivers the lamb to the butcher's block," retorted Eimhir. True evil is a persistent and tenacious beast. Its desire for existence is eternal and insatiable. It needs to infect only one mind for its insidious philosophy to take root and spread. It is 394 B.C. At a remote loch in the highlands of Northern Albu, a priest sacrifices nine innocents. Below the water's surface, a shape feeds on their blood and begins to take form. Soon, it becomes sentient and begins to hunt. Sidheag has risen. Humans cannot defeat the abomination. Neither can Mongfhionn, the powerful demi-goddess of the Aes Sídhe. The only remedy is the Blood Queen, and Gràinne is the reluctant heir to that throne. Will the Blood Queen stand alongside Mongfhionn to confront Sidheag? The cost for Gràinne may be too much—unless her daughter, Brianag, is in jeopardy. Passions, always near the surface of the Gaels, burst into flames in The Blood Queen, where father is pitted against son, mother against daughter, sister against sister, brother against sister, and father against daughter. The Blood Queen contains scenes of sex and violence and uses language appropriate to the period in which it is set, i.e., 400 B.C. It is not recommended for those under 14 without parental consent.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "You have no weapons, striapach." "I am the weapon, tuilí." It is 400 B.C. The mist clears, and three triremes glide into the calm waters of the bay in Southern Ériu. On a grass-topped dune, a young girl dances gleefully at the Goddess's gift. The warrior princesses, Brighid and Danu, leap over the vessels' sides into the cold waters and look north towards their ancestral home—the fort of Ráth Na Conall. The clash of weapons is not a good omen. From his throne in Caher Conri, the depraved Uallachán rages at the sight of the red shield embellished with a swooping black raven and the memories it provokes. He swears vengeance on the daughters of his old adversary. Draighean, a demi-goddess of the mystical Aes Sídhe, stands alone on the mountain peak. She bites full maroon lips, unhappy at her mission. Yet, does she have a choice? Evil must be confronted and defeated. Uallachán's idea of peace is to crush all dissent, but is he no more than a puppet of the powerful kings of the Connachta? The twins know they must defeat the invasion and stop the enslavement of their people. Still, even with the help of Draighean, the odds are daunting. The Dog Roses contains scenes of sex and violence and uses language appropriate to the period in which it is set, i.e., 400 B.C. It is not recommended for those under 14 without parental consent.

Download or read book The Dog Roses Resolution written by David H. Millar and published by A Wee Publishing Company, LLC. This book was released on 2024-04-26 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sisters squabble. Queens go to war. Ten summers ago, victory brought peace and prosperity to Southern Ériu. Danu and Brighid were celebrated as heroes and saviours. The queens scaled the heights, and there was only one way to go. One twin became overbearing, the other resentful. Pride dug a pit filled with blackthorns between them. They became tyrants, and the kingdom was sundered. The people were left bitter, divided and afraid, and the lush farmlands fell barren. Stripped of their powers, the Dog Roses were no more. Each blamed the other, and neither took responsibility. Angry parents gave the twins’ brothers an army and tasked them to bring law to the kingdom. An embittered veteran and a beautiful assassin accompany them. Whose gold is in the assassin’s pouch, and what are her orders? In the Halls of the Aes Sídhe, Draighean is chastised and commanded to return to her wards. “Guide them, support them, or kill them. Just finish what you started.” An evil philosophy grows, and another army gathers. Can the sisters be reconciled? The people need the Dog Roses, but can they forgive them? Yet, do Danu and Brighid want the responsibility? Do they want their powers returned? Being normal is very tempting. The Dog Roses: Resolution is the sequel to The Dog Roses. Content warning: The Dog Roses: Resolution contains scenes of sex, violence, and language appropriate to the historical period (400 B.C.) and locations in which the story is set. It is not recommended for those under 14 without parental consent.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Charming Yet Clueless Professor Dr. Vail Mifflin loves the history of organized crime. Teaching and writing about the adventures of mobsters are his life's work. To Vail, the stories he tells are just that-fun accounts he doesn't think of as real. When Dr. Mifflin gets too close to the modern-day mob truth while researching a book he's writing, his life begins to fall apart. The Irish Mob Killers Rowen, Cillian, Aspen, and Fallon work for the Killough Company, the Irish mob that controls the Eastern Seaboard of the US. They go to one of Dr. Mifflin's lectures to hear a few stories about the old-timers. That day, the men save Dr. Mifflin from an Italian mafioso, who didn't like the things Dr. Mifflin lectured about. With this one unintended kind act, these killers become entangled in Vail's life. Death and Danger in Unexpected Places As the band of killers get to know Vail, they realize that instead of focusing on the history of the mob, he's trying to write an up-to-date account. Normally they would murder a man who planned to divulge their secrets, but it's clear Vail doesn't truly understand the danger he's in. Their only choice to keep him alive is to protect him and convince him to stop. Vail struggles with ADHD and is reluctant to let go of his career, the one thing he feels he is good at. Unfortunately word is already out that Vail knows things he shouldn't, and keeping him safe won't be simple. How Did You Survive Without Us? ends on a small cliffhanger for Vail, but the next book is already written, so you won't have to wait to find out what happens next! **The next book is in the final proofing stages and is planned to be released between 12/30/2021 and 12/31/2021. We didn't want to make anyone wait too long, so we're releasing them close together. Thanks! Ki and M.D.**
