Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Never were there two destined for such a horrible fate. Four years have passed since the Child, Tane, and Care escaped the clutches of the Order of Garatos, and the world as they’ve known it is long gone. The Mountains of the Predicated, their new home, has been their safe haven with Mistacles, the Great Imagi as their guardian, but strange happenings and talk of legions of soldiers heading up the mountain side have all those who live there nervous. Pul, survivor of the hands of the Order, has made a name for himself as potential Prophezier but faces adversaries even among those he trusts most. And Munta, who has stood true and fair by his side, has been forced into war, becoming like those whom he despises most even at the breaking of his heart. Unexpected reunions. Terrifying revelations. All play a part in this sequel to the novel, “The Child of Venlet,” where nothing is as it seems. There are those who wish to harm the children, and those who wish to protect them. But who can they trust in a world full of lies? “She is not ours to take—not yet, anyways. But retribution is ours to give. And I am eager to give.”

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: You see, Edward, editor and budding Grail Knight, youre part of the Merlin myth, and you have been for a long time, said Merlin enigmatically. The figure of Merlin, magician, enchanter, trickster, strategist of King Arthurs Camelot, wise old man of Celtic myth, has intrigued and enthralled readers for centuries, but who, really, was he? Did he ever actually exist? Boston editor Edward Burbage is given a unique opportunity to find out. Hes invited to Merlins home on Mertowney Mountain to interview him. The invitation includes free transportation, and Merlins mountain is not in this world, and for that matter, how on Earth could Burbage be talking to Merlin anyway? Merlin is supposed to be only a character from an old myth, isnt he? Over the course of five years, starting in 2034, Burbage conducts his interviews, and the revelations Merlin makes are astounding. He has been many mythic figures, taken on many guises, such as the Irish Cuchulainn, the Egyptian Anubis, the Navaho Monster Slayer, the Greek Herakles, the Polynesian Maui, and even a few holy men like Saint Columba of Iona and John the Evangelist of Patmos, author of Revelation. Hes worked as initiator, war-god, slayer of inimical spirits, prophet, seer, a guide to the soul in the after-life, geomancer, terraformer, a fisher up of islands, and especially a devoted field agent to the Great Mother, Herself operating under many guises such as Morrigan, Isis, Changing Woman, and Hera. But why has Edward Burbage been brought to Mertowney Mountain? Its not just so Merlin can tell his true story. Merlin has a plan for him, and hes preparing things all the time hes recounting his exploits. Edward Burbage has a key role to play in the next installment of the long life of Merlin. Hes about to step onto the world stage of myth disclosing a long withheld mystery, the secret of the Mer-Line, the truth and power behind Merlin himself.
