Book excerpt: Morgen of Avalon She was King Arthur's healer, His love, The Faerie Queen destined to help him maintain peace throughout the land... Britannia is at long last a peaceful nation thanks not only to Arthur's successful military campaign, but also his clever negotiations with Cedric, the Saxon King. Unfortunately, the price for this long awaited freedom is steep. Arthur offers Morgen's daughter, Eliana, as a future bride for Cynric, the Saxon Prince. Few people know that Eliana suffers from a curse evoked by the lascivious Morgause, and that her life speeds well in advance of a normal pace. Desperate to safeguard the child from everyone who threatens her existence, Morgen spirits Eliana into an enchanted tower that hides its ever changing face from the world of mankind. There Eliana finds herself cut off from human interaction, witnessing life through the medium of a magical mirror until a dashing knight captures her attention and she longs for more. Will Eliana linger forgotten and alone? Somehow Morgen must lift the curse, even if it means pitting herself against Morgause and the forces of darkness. What of the love that blossoms between the High King and Faerie Queen -- despite their grievances? Will it finally reveal the wealth of their forgotten past? When King Cedric and his son arrive at court, Morgen is forced to make a dreadful choice. Can she support Arthur's peace treaty; allow him to join Eliana and Cynric in marriage? Or will she offer Eliana the chance to experience true love, even if it means she must sacrifice herself in the process? Set amidst the wonders of King Arthur's Camelot, Child of Destiny, is the second installment in author Carol Weakland's romantic fantasy series, Morgen of Avalon. Secrets are revealed in this magical utopia that boasts dragons, faeries, the legendary court of miracles, not to mention the long awaited return of Merlin and a re-imagining of Alfred Lord Tennyson's "The Lady of Shallott."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Book One in the Twilight of Avalon Trilogy She is a healer, a storyteller, a warrior, and a queen without a throne. In the shadow of King Arthur's Britain, one woman knows the truth that could save a kingdom from the hands of a tyrant... Ancient grudges, old wounds, and the quest for power rule in the newly widowed Queen Isolde's court. Hardly a generation after the downfall of Camelot, Isolde grieves for her slain husband, King Constantine, a man she secretly knows to have been murdered by the scheming Lord Marche -- the man who has just assumed his title as High King. Though her skills as a healer are renowned throughout the kingdom, in the wake of Con's death, accusations of witchcraft and sorcery threaten her freedom and her ability to bring Marche to justice. Burdened by their suspicion and her own grief, Isolde must conquer the court's distrust and superstition to protect her throne and the future of Britain. One of her few allies is Trystan, a prisoner with a lonely and troubled past. Neither Saxon nor Briton, he is unmoved by the political scheming, rumors, and accusations swirling around the fair queen. Together they escape, and as their companionship turns from friendship to love, they must find a way to prove what they know to be true -- that Marche's deceptions threaten not only their lives but the sovereignty of the British kingdom. In Twilight of Avalon, Anna Elliott returns to the roots of the legend of Trystan and Isolde to shape a very different story -- one based in the earliest written versions of the Arthurian tales -- a captivating epic brimming with historic authenticity, sweeping romance, and the powerful magic of legend.

But beneath Avalon's demonic boisterousness, Vanessa recognized her own flaws and insecurities, and she understood that abandoning Avalon would be the worst she could do to him.

Book excerpt: For countless centuries, I've been the assassin for the infamous Merlin, even though the woman who birthed me sits at the right hand of our enemy, Morgen le Fey. Now both my mother and Morgen have decided that it's time I take my place on their side of this conflict. Normally, telling them no wouldn't be a problem, except for the fact that the good guys I protect think that I'm an even worse demon than the ones we fight. Hmm, maybe they're right. I have to say that I do enjoy maiming anyone who gets in my way. At least until my mother gives me a simple choice: join Morgen's Circle of the Damned or see an innocent woman die. I'm all for saving the innocent, but Merewyn isn't as innocent as she seems. And she's none too fond of the fact that her fate is in my dubious hands. Personally I'm all for taking the easy way out, but leaving her to Morgen is rough, even for me. Now the only way to save both our lives is to face the evilest forces ever known—my mother and Morgen. And two people who know nothing of trust must learn to rely on each other or die: provided we don't kill each other first.
