Book excerpt: For James Irving, mage life isn't all it's cracked up to be. After losing his first love in an ambush attack, he's content to hibernate in his gothic home with his ghostly roommate--actually, Agatha is more like a mother than a swirl of glowing green mist from Colonial times--while the world (and his estranged older brother, the only family he has left) goes on without him. But when dinosaur skeletons break down his door and lead him to a fellow mage in distress, James is pulled into an evil plot that threatens not only his cozy hometown but all of humanity. With cursed books popping up left and right, putting people in comas and worse, James forms an uneasy alliance with a pair of young mages bent on exposing the dark magic behind the chaos. Can the team of upstarts foil a deranged mage exceedingly more powerful than they are? And will James get through one measly date with the beautiful doctor he's trying to woo (dipping a toe back in the world has unexpectedly revived his love life) without being interrupted by a supernatural emergency?

Book excerpt: Blood magic is cheating. The tables have turned. Unbeknownst to the people of Dageis, their emperor is a puppet, controlled by an outlaw kept under the strict watch of the mage council's Firekeeper. Only Rosha knows it won't last long. Her powers are slipping. To hold up her disguise, she has turned to the legacy of her forefathers: the dangerous, mysterious, reviled blood magic. Long practiced by her people, it has been dismissed by the empire's mages as savage and unstable. But other mages have caught on to the allure of power that lay within the forbidden and the secret hidden inside the very bodies of Rosha's kin. It is now up to Rosha and her friends to save her people from a past that continues to haunt them and a future in which they have no place, even if it means treading the line between sanity and self-destruction. With her own secrets unraveling, Rosha has nowhere left to turn but deep within herself as she has to make the decision between embracing the people she has tried to run from and becoming the monster the history books warned she could be.

Book excerpt: The Havath Dominion is marching to war. Humiliated in the ruins of Imperial Ithos, the Exile Splinter stolen from their grasp by the ancient sphinx Kanderon Crux, Havath's Duarchs have assembled an army that dwarfs the entire population of Skyhold. Led by their Great Powers, monsters and mages individually capable of leveling a city, they pose a threat that even Kanderon, one of the mightiest of Great Powers, and her equally monstrous allies might be unable to stop.

Download or read book It Finally Happened written by Craig Glatky and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2015-07-28 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This science fiction book took me over twenty years to do. This book never had a beginning, and it really had no purpose. It was a dream that I had, and I just wrote it down. It was years later when I went on Facebook and, being very outspoken, said a few things that were on my mind, and I should have kept my big mouth shut. And for that, I hurt a girl who, I believed, I kiss in first grade. When I went to my class reunion, I saw a person, and she said she was nobody and she looked straight in my face. Maybe she wasnt, or maybe she was the one. It was in the next class reunion when I asked a classmate if this person was there. I only gave the first name because I did not know the last name. She gave the name, and I was in tears. I did my research, and I found the one. I made an apology to her, and she might have said it was worth two cents and a crinkle piece of paper. So I made my story science fiction, non fiction, romance, fantasy, and humor I included all when I talked about this girl in the beginning. I made a promise to her that I will not say or make any words to reflect her name on my Facebook page, nor will I do it here. I dont want to put a strain on her marriage. The second book, it might not talk about the girl, but the third or the last book, I dont know yet if it will be about her. I hope I can change the ending. Either way, with the ending, it wont be what you expect, but I gave a little clue in the end of this book. The second book does not say.

I could not put this book down and have told all of my friends to get a copy to read. I can't wait for the rest of the series!!! It was a fun refreshing take on magic and creatures. The characters are so captivating. I am glad to see a magic related series that is more female based and has more of the "Supernatural" feel to it.- L. Coffing Added to my collection of urban fantasy beautifully written – Tevin I've read other things by this author, but this one stands head and shoulders above the others!

Keep them coming - don't want to go into withdrawals! – Tami Cowles This is a well-structured and exciting tale, with a magical system that any Fantasy lover would die for. This inspiring first novel shows a promising start to a series and kept a firm grasp on my attention throughout. Trials of Magic makes for an addictive read. Many times, I even found myself shouting at the characters, praying either for their safety or for them to succeed in their endeavors. A true work of fiction with great artistic flair. There is a lot of heart embedded within these pages. Trials of magic is a five-star read and a real credit to Mr. Thomas Carpenter. – Dax Munro TRA I've always enjoyed coming-of-age novels and this one is fantastic. It is Well written, well plotted, and gripping. The characters and plot do not let you go. -PRBC I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book. The characters are all interesting, I couldn't predict what would happen (which I LOVE), and I can hardly wait to find out what happens next.

It's amazing how real Carpenter makes this world and all the people in it. – Sharon Brigham Spratt Animalians I really love how quickly you fall head over heels for the Animalian Hall. – Yorkiemom The Animalians series is easily one of the most enjoyable reads I have had in the past year.

If you adore Jordan and Martin, Thomas Carpenter and his Hundred Halls series are MUST READS as sci-fantasy of today! – Lynda C. If you want lots of interesting action and characters, this book has it. – J Krug LitRPG has become very formulaic as a genre.
