Download or read book The Fated Chronicles The Complete Fantasy Adventure Series Box Set Collection written by Humphrey Quinn and published by Rachel Humphrey - D'aigle. This book was released on 2021-01-12 with total page 1943 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Fated Chronicles Complete Series Contemporary Portal Fantasy Adventure eBook Box Set When an aged and grizzled man insists on selling twins Meghan and Colin Jacoby an ancient book of spells and then vanishes from the carnival grounds moments later, well, to ignore this would also mean ignoring the other impossible things suddenly happening around them. Magical type things… like, talking books, animals popping out of fires, creatures lurking in the lake, fiery visions come true… plus oddly dressed neighbors arriving out of nowhere and afraid of something that stalks the night sky. And just when the twins think things can’t get any stranger, that’s when the spell book has a dangerous warning: an ancient evil is coming, and it’s coming for them… But why? Colin is thirteen going on eighteen but stuck in the body of a ten-year-old—he lives to disappear into a fantasy novel for days. His twin sister Meghan despises reading anything without pictures and spends her days picking fights with the bullies that target her geeky brother. They’re just regular thirteen-year-old twins—well, they have spent their lives traveling around the countryside with their uncle in his travel trailer. Granted, not completely normal, but nothing at all remotely magical or otherworldly—well, if you don’t count their ability to hear each other’s thoughts, or that their parents died mysteriously, or that their uncle has a rule to move every few weeks—until summertime, when they return to the same campground… like he’s waiting for something. But what could this possibly have to do with them? A few oddities hardly equal a hidden magical history… right? Can they unravel the secrets in time? Or will magic be lost to these ancient enemies, plunging an unaware world into a magical nightmare? I think these reviews help sum up the series well: "This sweeping complex series of 11 books is riveting, rollicking and ultimately very satisfying. Following the lives of 3 young children in particular whose identities and relationships (like so many others in this saga) are not what they initially appear to be, these page-turners are packed with Magic, Pathos, Teenage Angst, Humor, Anticipation, Conspiracy, War and Peace, Bucolic Love, Time Travel... everything but the kitchen sink! I picked up Book 1 on a Friday night and binge read all 11 by Tuesday morning! If you ever thought you were somehow “Special,” or ever wanted to “Save the World,” these books are for YOU. Totally engaging and completely believable, the emotional roller coaster keeps the reader invested in each intricate convoluted detail while orchestrating its ultimate message of Love, with a few lessons in Morality along the way. So many comparisons to Past, Present and Future situations are readily apparent. So snuggle up on a rainy day and embark on a new adventure... I can promise you a surprise around every corner and some serious Fun!" - Amazon reviewer "Ascend, book 11 of the Fated Saga, was an absolute joy and surprise to read. While I believe most of us who have been along for the read since the beginning expected some sort of happy ending, I don't think anyone could have anticipated this. Ascend wraps up each and every character's story arc and leaves no stone unturned. *** The fact that the ending took me so completely by surprise is one of the things I loved most about this book. Each character felt like a real person, despite the magical world they lived in. The series, as a whole, dealt with topics like love, hate, discrimination, jealousy and finding yourself and was able to stay true to the story. Nothing felt contrived. The bottom line is just WOW. I was thrown by the twists I never saw coming as well as the resolutions I'd hoped for but had no idea how the author could bring about. I do hope we get to read about more of either the characters or the beautiful world created for them."

This book was released on 2020-08-31 with total page 1967 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Featuring a snarky heroine, kickass action, and spicy romance, this hilarious urban fantasy sucker-punches you in the heart when you're not looking. At 10:47 AM, Nava Katz is given a magic destiny. Turns out it’s non-refundable. Destiny can suck it. Nava Katz traded a lost dream for an impressively cynical attitude. The one thing she does care about? Her hard-working twin brother. Then she interrupts his induction ceremony into a secret supernatural society, accidentally torches his life-long ambition, and steals his destiny. Wait—whaaaat? She expects to be chastised, not thrown into a trial by fire, battling demons to keep humanity safe while she’s learning to master her powers and facing her worst nightmare: a purpose. To add insult to literal injury, it turns out that evil fiends are a delight compared to the all-male hunters, who shockingly, are not cool with a woman in their ranks. They assign her to their most ruthless slayer: Rohan, a man whose inner demons earn nods of respect from actual ones. He’s pursuing his own high-stakes mission, with no interest in babysitting some chick that everyone expects to die soon. But Nava excels in defying people’s expectations, and besides, spite is a powerful motivator. So, she hatches a plan to bring her brother into the fold alongside her. Sure, it involves defeating a vengeful demon out for blood, but you can’t make an omelet without breaking a few bones. The Brotherhood wants her gone. The demons want her dead. First gig as a Chosen One and she's already nailing it. If you like KF Breene, Annabel Chase, and CN Crawford, you won’t be able to put down this laugh-out-loud, deliciously addictive series!

A fast-paced action adventure journey through a world of magic and intrigue, where the urban fantasy story is filled with slow-burn romance by urban fantasy author, Thea Atkinson. What you'll find inside: BOOK 1: Rune Thief: She just picked the wrong pocket. Now, she's on the bad side of a dark sorcerer. Isabella just botched the heist that was supposed to be her Hail Mary chance to escape the clutches of her gangster ex and his thugs. Stranded in a dark alley behind a seedy bar, she finds a stranger dying at her feet. She doesn't know he's a dark sorcerer. Or that the rune she pinched from his pocket has powerful, coveted magic. Now, marked by the sorcerer and hunted by a fae assassin, Isabella is thrown into a secret supernatural underworld, where all the creatures of her nightmares are real. Ripped from her normal life and tossed into a realm known as the Shadow Bazaar where an arrogant immortal man reigns supreme, she'll need all her wit and skill just to survive. Because the sorcerer she crossed and the fae hunting her are far worse than the violent ex she's running from. And they want more than just to get the rune back… BOOK 2: Bone Hunter: Isabella unwittingly asked for a favor from a dark fae master, and now he's calling in the chips. If she refuses to repay the debt, she'll lose the only thing standing between her and a violent ex out for her head. If she agrees, she'll have to face a seethe of blood-thirsty vampires. BOOK 3: Stone Goddess: The stink of brimstone still clings to Isabella's skin after her escape from Hell. Fortunately, she brought an enchanted stone back that can wrestle her out from beneath Scottie's thumb. She'll just have to barter with a few dangerous immortals. Bonus: Holiday Magic: The holidays should be fun, not deadly. When Maddox lures Isabella out of the house on Christmas Eve with the promise of a job, she doesn't realize it will be at a Christmas party, and that the festivities are in the Shadow Bazaar. A place she told herself she would never visit again. She finds herself in the middle of a group of Kindred on the cusp of their most sacred and savage time of year. It's not a place for mortals. In fact, it's downright dangerous. Soul Merchant: Isabella continues to find new and horrifying things to fear in the seedy underbelly of the otherworld. Her new job of reclaiming magical artifacts seems harmless enough until she realizes those relics she's meant to procure all have a supernatural origin. Some of them are flat out frightening. Cursed Alchemist: As Isabella tries to help Maddox out of a dark funk, she falls into the clutches of an infamous vampire with a vendetta. One bound in blood and death, and more than a little pain.
