It has never left us..., whispered her voices. Avery Dragomir, sixteen years old, is serving as a recruit of the Snow Patriots. The Fedonian conflict is coming to an end and a new time of war begins. But war is not all that lays hidden in the country of Alconia she calls home, a massive mountainous land. Its many corners of valleys, forests and mountains are till to this day undiscovered. It is that, what feeds the superstition in the hearts of most people along the unexplainable things that occurred to some of them. And Avery is about to face what some told her to be the mark of the witches in the darkest of swamps, where the death knell is rung by the bellringer Maledictus. This is the tale of war, pain, love, superstition, and the truth behind it. Only dive in if you're brave enough.

𝘽𝙤𝙤𝙠 #1 𝙑𝙖𝙢𝙥𝙞𝙧𝙚 𝘿𝙚𝙨𝙘𝙚𝙣𝙙𝙖𝙣𝙩𝙨 ↬ Growing up on the rough streets of Western Sydney, Helena Callahan has always been a fighter. Her philosophy was simple: be sly, agile, and never get caught doing something illegal. And that's what her world was all about-breaking the law. Broke and alone, Helena was forced to sell her body to make a living. It wasn't ideal, but it was how she survived. Still, she longed for change that never seemed to come. It was always the same dauntless routine. At least, that was until she was streetwalking one night and witnessed a supernatural murder. Caught in a bizarre love triangle, Helena's thrown into a new lifestyle surrounded by undead creatures, magical prophecies, and a compelling psychopath to whom she is bound with for an eternity. Now, the cunning heroine is forced into a different kind of battle for survival. Only this one means war. ________________________________________________ THIS BOOK SERIES WAS FORMERLY KNOWN AS 'HELENA SERIES' TO READ MORE: eBook: https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/623826 Paperback: http://www.lulu.com/content/paperback-book/newborn-%28helena-series-book-1%29/18675499

In diesem Buch geht es um die weiteren Vorgänge in Mittelerde nach dem Sieg über Sauron. Seit langer Zeit fallen den Menschen und Elben aus Mittelerde viele Zeichen auf, dass das Böse wieder zurückkehrt. Trolle treiben wieder ihr Unwesen und es tauchen giftige Spinnen und andere finstere Gestalten aus den dunkelsten Ecken und Nischen auf. Eine dunkle Aschewolke baut sich über dem verlassenen Lande Mordor auf. Was hat das mit den Ringen und dem Vermächtnis der Elben in Mittelerde zu tun? Es ist aber kein richtiges Buch, sondern gelegentlich eine Fiktion, denn ich habe einiges frei dazu erfunden. Viel Spaß beim Lesen! Ich würde mich übrigens sehr freuen, wenn ihr etwas in die Kommentare schreibt oder mir ein Feedback gebt. :-) Die Bilder (Außer das Cover, das habe ich selber gezeichnet und bearbeitet) sind aus dem Internet. Ich wusste nicht wie man Links in eine Geschichte einfügt. Es hat leider nur in der Beschreibung geklappt.
