[Epic Mythological Fantasy] A prince who defied two kings. A princess who made the ultimate sacrifice. Jason, the rightful heir to the throne of Iolkos, must avenge the deposition of his father and the murder of his siblings. With no intention of relinquishing the crown, however, vile King Pelias demands that Jason acquire the famed Golden Fleece to prove himself worthy of the crown. It is a feat many have tried, but none have succeeded. Fewer still have even lived to tell their tale. Sailing with the Argonauts, a dream team of heroes, Jason navigates fierce adversaries, insurmountable obstacles, and turbulent waters to reach Colchis, half a world away. All Jason wants is the Golden Fleece, but its owner, King Aeetes has different ideas. In order for the king to discharge the Fleece, Jason must complete three arduous, if deadly, labors. Choosing to accept aid from a beautiful and mysterious but unlikely source could either be Jason's salvation or his undoing. But choose wisely, he must. For if he fails but one of lethal tasks... death may be a welcome vacation from his troubles. *** Jason's Quest is a sexy, mysterious retelling of Greek myth, Jason and Medea/ Jason and The Argonauts/ Jason and The Quest for the Golden Fleece.

A complete fantasy book. Technically ... a weird western. Gunslingers, hex witches, dogmen, minotaur, trains that run further than you can imagine ... Mikeos Jones is a gunslinger, faster than thinking, part of the gunlaw, a man who can seldom afford the luxury of looking past the end of any given day. Jenna Crossard is a hex-witch, but her ambitions are larger than spells and charms - the need to understand the world consumes her. They say the gunlaw keeps men safe from the endless horror of the sect, but to Jenna it's a cage and she wants out. If that means breaking open the world and killing a few gods ... so be it.

In the world of Lycania, nobody is safe unless you're born into wealth. The rich stay indoors with walls of steel while the outside contains darkness and death, but as the ever growing evil spreads within the people of rags and misfortune, the barriers of protection degrade. Ever since Jennia Withers was young, her caregiver Maria had been preparing her for the outside world, knowing the barriers that held their house safe would vanish. And as soon as she hits 18, it does. No longer would Jennia peek out the window through the curtains to admire the breeze between dead leaves in trees with her heart beating ferociously when a creature of death walked by. She'd be forced into it without warning and given a fate the world Lycania had been waiting for.

Florida Forest Service duty officer Ray Lumley is in love with a white fringetree. Not an I-read-Walden-in-high-school love; a sweaty, sappy, I-want-to-rub-against-you-'til-I-get-splinters love. It's awkward. So, he's relieved to learn that he's really hot for Trivia, the dreadlocked, radical environmentalist nymph who lives inside the tree. Better yet, she wants to share an eternity of Arcadian delights with him. But first she has to kill the man she holds responsible for a spate of forest fires--Ray's boss, a mid-level bureaucrat (and soccer dad) who she insists is the King of the Woods. -- King of the Woods, or Trivial Pursuit retells the myth of rex Nemorensis as an urban fantasy. Updates every Tuesday.

ISLAND LEGENDS is an epic fantasy adventure series set in a galaxy reeling from devastating wars, filled with countless alien species, a rich history of powerful magical forces, and the interventions of many gods and demons constantly at war. *** James Island was born two years ago as a fully grown man. While struggling to build a life for himself in the desert city of Tyken Town, James finds his world turned upside down when he is confronted by Evan Goodheart, a strange young alien who claims to be on a mission from the gods to find James and save his own people. Despite trepidation, James finds an affinity with the lost and bewildered Evan and takes it upon himself to help him find his way; all while attempting to maintain some order in the life he's made and his construction work responsibilities. Throughout the course of the day James will discover just how entwined his fate is with Evans as the truth of his unknown past is revealed to him, setting him on a perilous journey that will lead him across the galaxy. *** Among its many influences are the grand operatic adventures of the Star Wars universe, the ensemble cast of desperate heroes of a Final Fantasy game, and the long and all-important journey of The Lord of the Rings and The Wheel of Time series. I also like to think of it as a serial television show, where we learn more of the characters as the progressively complex story develops, with new characters being introduced along the way. ISLAND LEGENDS: THE AWAKENING OF JAMES ISLAND was previously published by Solstice Publishing and is now looking for a new publisher. * Only the first few chapters are available on Wattpad as a teaser *
