After the murder of their father, Rachel and Daniel must free their people from the deadly Harridan overlords which ceased control of Thracia twenty years ago. Destined from birth to fulfill a double edged prophecy, they must succeed or condemn their entire world into oblivion. The technologically advanced Harridan overlords pursue them without mercy leaving total destruction in their wake. Betrayed by their own blood into the enemy’s hand, they must choose between life and death. A single choice to make, and it would all be over one way or the other. The only question is, which choice will lead to life?

Nurtured by sorcery, fighting prowess enhanced by spells and protected against steel’s sharp edge by enchantments, Guardians of the TEMPLE OF EKKRAN venture across the known world in the service of their evil Deity. Agents of death and destruction, no kingdom or empire can bar their path in executing the will of fiendish Sorcerer-Priests in whose icy grip the Palahian Empire shivers in dread. First among the Guardians is Ral Thagus, Clique-Leader and Champion of the Priest Trelon, who is second only to the First-Priest Shakron, an evil mage plotting the demise of mankind. Forbidden to love, Ral gives his heart to a hostage noblewoman and is banished from the Temple. An Outcast, Ral finds himself on the distant High Plateau, a land rife with warfare and political intrigue, betrayal; a region of many city-states and kingdoms ruled by the once honorable Arkhuns and their nobility, the Horselords, who worship sword-cults to which they owe a separate loyalty. It is a land overrun with mercenaries called Bloodspillers, swords bought by Arkhun gold. Forever hunted by his own Guardian brethren whom he must kill to survive, Ral is plunged into this maelstrom by the diabolical schemes of his former patrons.

Iliryle did not wait for the gnoll to die and she grabbed up her shield once more for protection. Hawkwind s magic was now spreading across the entire south wall and around east and west. The air in the courtyard itself seemed to pulse with the strum from his fingers as his song raised and lowered in volume. The gnomes had long since realized that they were being helped and they threw themselves in a maniacal fashion at the gnolls in the breach. Abruptly another chant seemed to join in time with the music and Lebbrina, cut and bleeding from several minor wounds walked out of the tower stairs nearby and up to the bard. Now the green magic of the cleric joined with that of the bard and a swirling maelstrom of light began to bathe the battlefield. A crash of thunder sounded nearby and a brilliant bolt of lightning lit the battle beyond the wall. Thea, in the tower above had finally chosen to attack with magic and the lightning struck a giant that was moving toward the wall. It was terribly wounded and it struggled to its feet and dragged itself away in retreat.

Kandwyn is the Heir to the March and he must deal with two old friends. One is working to get his revenge for his banishment and blames Kandwyn. Through sorcery and guile he attacks the March, the family–held realm, and brings the Heir to his most challenging confrontations and reckonings. The family-led military must meet the demands of the invasion and bring forth the next generation of warriors to defend the March and their lands from ruin. The other works his deceit from the inside for the lost love he feels Kandwyn stole from him, but makes a mistake in his revenge that could change everything for the Lords of the March and bring Kandwyn to his doom.

Battle Group One bailed out of the Bartolian Vector with a shaky armistice and a longing for home. They did not, however, receive the welcomed familiarity of planet Earth. What they got instead were the bizarre, rotting galleries of...The Derelict

The Derelict is a space saga centering on a stellar skirmish and a meeting with an unseen menace known to be heading for the Milky Way Galaxy. United States Naval Battle Group One intercepts this strange contact miles beyond the galaxy and finds an immense, creeping derelict spaceship billions of years old. It is not until they board this dangerous, burned-out hulk that they discover they are trapped there by murderous diabolical forces.

One will kill, One will die, One will heal and One will fly. The prophecy has been taught for centuries and now it is coming true. All the races of the world must come together to fight an evil wizard who is breeding a super army of dragons. Somehow it is fitting that the fate of the world rests in the hands of an elf, a dwarf a cleric and a monk.

Surviving a perilous journey, explorer Wellen Bedlam arrives on the shores of a fabled land of dragons. Such leviathans, though, prove neither the most astonishing nor dangerous aspect of this new world, for hidden within the land called Dragonrealm is an ancient citadel whose master carries a book in which have been written spells capable of giving anyone mastery over all. Now Wellen finds himself the unwitting participant in a struggle between the book's master, the wizards known as the Lords of the Dead, and a monstrous Dragon King, all of whom see the explorer as the perfect yet expendable pawn...

An exotic dark fantasy set in a modern day metropolis. The entire world is shadowed with mystery and alternative history.

The Journey in the Dark World continues. Corpse battles it out with the Covenant of Daimons in an effort to liberate himself from his evil past. Leela finds herself tormented by sinister forces whose sole purpose is to destroy her human life. All the while the secrets of the Daimons has been discovered by one man. But will he be able to reveal the truth in time to prevent Leela and Corpse from destroying the human race?

Three hundred and sixty years ago, Lord Magellan devastated the Second World. Cities were destroyed. Civilizations died, and countless millions died before his invincible crusade. As quickly as he began, he stopped, leaving a vast portion of the Second World in ruin. For centuries, the people of Sunfall have lived in constant dread of the moment Magellan’s rage exploded anew to destroy them all. That night has come. With the ancient monster active again, Guildshelm finds itself in a position of reluctant leadership as some nations turn to them for help – bringing their own intrigues and agendas with them. Meanwhile, Philosopher despairs over a shocking discovery, until a beautiful Timeless appears. Calling herself “Anastasia the Muse,” she reveals surprising secrets about Philosopher’s true past…and the role he could play in the future. This is the second book in the Second World Chronicles, continuing the story begun in “The Guildshelm Legacy.”

In The Oath of the Necromancer, the tide of war rises against the good races of Neoluzia by the marauding armies of the Orcs from the north. The Orcs are led by Arkan Spiritstrike, a powerful Orc wizard who drives his forces to fulfill an Orc destiny designed over one thousand years ago.

Armed with this new information, Parr reluctantly decides to remain in Neoluzia so that he can find the great necromancer Termaplix, the last remaining hope for the salvation of the land. With his dark elven companions and a feisty dwarven paladin, David seeks to deliver this message tasked by Darius to the Salon of Enlightenment. Unknown to Parr however, the Orcs have planned to prevent his valiant party from leaving the elven forest of Frontentia alive and the stranger from Earth finds that he cannot escape The Second Neoluzian War.

Darkwolfe has assumed the lordship of Grathmoor and the Demon Gate for now is secure with the help of the dwarven army. Still the threat of chaos and destruction is evident with the demon Za'Varuk now released and the wizard Sabbath and Black Paladin escaping with their lives intact. A new adventure now unfolds to hunt down the remaining Spirit Keys. The companions must now venture forth to the Glacial Mountains and find the the source of the call of the Wild God and find the knowledge that they seek; they must commune with the Pine Tree Wind.

The Vraad, a race of master wizards, rule Nimth with little regard even for the laws of nature, twisting their world to their whims. Their carelessness, though, at last forces them into a desperate plan of escape from ravaged Nimth to a mysterious world. Yet, even if they manage to overcome personal emnities and vendettas, the Vraad will soon learn that their new home, a place of dragons, will not so readily bend and, instead, could prove their master.

Ancient, magical forces swirl silver and black as darkness falls upon the world of Atheos. Landon Jakes has lost so much. His homelands are overrun with an evil that is powered by the mysterious, magical force of Onyxdrop. He cannot forget his wife, Coren, whom he lost so long ago. He cannot stop loving her, either. Yul Eliost has the gift of rune magic and is a soldier for the Silver Crescent of Rhuhuell. Dispatched with a patrol across a mountain range called The Roughs, he could never have expected what he finds on his mission there. Rachel Doene is torn between two loves: her fiancé and her magic. And then, a third love unexpectedly enters her life. So, after centuries of peace, the battle for dominance between good and evil returns to a place of prominence upon the world s stage. But the lines become quickly blurred, as even the wisest discernment of good and evil is based largely upon perception and trust. Every decision becomes a potential razor to cut the thread that bears the hope of Atheos, determining whether the world plummets into darkness or remains in the light. So begins the saga of The Silver Night Prophecy.

Darkwolfe struggles with the art of magick and the vigorous training of becoming a warrior. But he is laughed at by his friends and expelled from the wizarding and fighting schools. An evil spell of sorcery, a foul curse rips through the town of Grathmoor and Darkwolfe and his girlfriend are forced to flee to a mythical temple. Darkwolfe unravels the mysteries of the Capit Draconis and the binding force of what it means to lead the fabled Dragon Band. The new warrior and his friends may be all there is to save the land from the demons of the gate, and a host of insidious spawn ready to destroy all of Alcyone. The first of the Pleides Series, destined to become a classic.

The Brentridges are wealthy and influential New Mexico Territory landowners. Their status purportedly purchased by seemingly inexhaustible capital provided by their reputed Deadmen Hills' gold mine.
