The Magic Trick is the sequel to the award-winning novel, The Silent Deal (currently free on Wattpad and Amazon). ** Last year Viktor and Romulus broke the Silent Deal. Can their town survive the backlash? ** Strange things are happening in Aryk, almost as if history is repeating itself. New playing card graffiti sparks fear and rumors. There are whispers of a second rebellion-and of betrayers, assassins, and spies. And when a mysterious circus pitches their tents outside of town, Viktor is sure that he can't trust its Ringmaster ... or its Magician. ** But all this pales in comparison to the new curriculum imposed on Aryk's schoolhouse. A new Apprenticeship program is being created. Master Molotov is searching for students to aid in his experiments. The pool of applicants is widening, and if Viktor and his serf or Gypsy friends are chosen, they may end up facing terrors in the last place they want to revisit-Staryi Castle itself.

THE SILENT DEAL is an award-winning explosive adventure. The Magic Trick (book 2) is out, and book 3 comes out next year. Within these pages lies mystery, magic, mythology, and wide cast of gypsies, gamblers, fire-jugglers, and thieves. The Card Game awaits... ** WHEN VIKTOR AND ROMULUS, two peasant boys, dig too deep into their town's strange past, they awaken the wrath of a mysterious overlord. As the blood brothers struggle to survive, their search for answers takes them through gambling parlors, fortune-teller dens, and moonlit forests full of monsters and men alike. But even with the help of their friends, can they escape the deathly experiments that their foe is creating in Staryi Castle? ** WINNER of 'Outstanding Fiction' at the California Writers Con. 5 STAR Finalist of the 2015 Readers Favorite Awards.

David is ten and a half years old when he becomes the de facto family shepherd and he's twelve when a man called Agent Samuel declares David will be the next ruler of Israel. One of those things seems more likely to happen than the other, even with the strange man's reassurances, and David's not surprised when it turns out to be the sheepherding side of things. Initially, at least. However, time passes. Years pass. David becomes President Saul's unofficial musical therapist, developing a close friendship with his son Jonathan--the man who should be ruler next. He defeats Goliath, the result of genetic experimenting done by the Philistines, with nothing more than a rock and a slingshot, and quickly becomes a beloved hero of Israel. And the more experience that David gets, the more that people become obsessed with him, the more he is willing to concede that maybe that Agent Samuel guy was onto something. He's not the only one who sees his rise in popularity, though; President Saul is keeping a close eye on him, too. A deadly eye. And it soon becomes evident that David will either live to see himself become President or a legend forever remembered as the man who defeated Goliath. CAVALIER is a modern day retelling of the early life of King David, from when he first becomes a shepherd to just before he becomes ruler over Israel. It is a Featured work in the Spiritual section.
