Book excerpt: Requiem for a Soul is the story of redemption for an artist. Stephen Vale has been highly lauded as the artist of his generation, but he has never felt comfortable being himself. Driving home on his thirty-fifth birthday to discover himself, what he finds are more questions. Written from the perspective of Stephen Vale's fictional biographer and told through the voices of Vale and those who knew him, this is the eternal story of the search for peace in the eye of an internal war. Advance praise for Requiem for a Soul: "I first met Clint while he was a struggling poet, but he has always had the gift of observation. He is the quintessential storyteller. He packs a lot of meaning into each sentence and at times, each word. I'm sure this will become an instant classic. And, I'm not just saying that to get an autographed copy."—Ron Saikowski, Washington Times "Gaige is a humanist, he is extremely powerful in subtlety of observation and depth of meaning. Requiem for a Soul is a search for love, a search for why we are abandoned by those we love, a search for answers to why we abandon those we love, in short, a search for meaning in life."—Sean Meiers, Publisher/Editor Random Reasonings, Literary On-Line "Gaige draws back the veil of an artist's life and gives us a good look at ourselves. The story and his characters have a clear objective; they look us straight in the eyes and realize, that you're looking at yourself!"—Sara Lindley, Editor, Creative Writer's Forum

I must confess that I laughed and cried throughout this wonderful journey… I would love to see a movie or mini series form from this. Elle Casey has jumped by leaps and bounds to my personal top authors, sharing the space with David Dalglish, R.A. Salvador, Ed Greenwood and Anne McCaffrey....she kicks ass.” ~ Dave Snow, Amazon reviewer “I cannot begin to explain how much I loved this series. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE!!! I am recommending it to everyone I know!! Such a fun read. Great characters and action. Will not disappoint. Jayne is one of those lead characters that you will just fall in love with. Funny, strong, and extremely likeable. I lost track of time while reading these books. Didn't know what day it was, what time it was...or what my family was doing!!! :) Elle Casey reminds me why I love to try new authors.” ~ Cristina, Goodreads Reviewer “This book is designed for teenagers and young adults, but it's such a humorous story that any reader will enjoy it. The characters are still just as funny as they were in the other books…This is a must read for anyone who loves fantasy, magic, and a funny story that is extremely complicated but so well-written that you don't even notice all the complexities.” ~ J.C. Cauthon, Goodreads Reviewer “I love this author… I love that she doesn't spend page after page of boring recap from the previous book. She writes in a manner that will have you laughing out loud (which means people look at me funny because they have no idea what i am doing), crying when she sets it up, and as you read you feel the emotions the main character does. I have read some other series she has done. She always pulls you in and doesn't let you go until she is ready.” ~ adelie21, Amazon reviewer A message from the author: A reader fan recently set up a blog dedicated to casting the actors for the War of the Fae movie. No, it is not in production to be made into a movie, nor have I sold the rights to anyone for the movie. But just in case I ever do, my fans will be sure the casting director has a complete line-up ready! Check it out: ellecasey.com/WOTF_Movie
