|Book#1|Chronicles of Mamoria| A story that was forgotten by history. A secret kept for hundreds of millennia. A dark heart sheltered by the light. A young prince who gave up his pride to protect his people. And a teenage girl who was destined to lose it all. Just like how all the best stories began, Zoe's tale started with a once upon a time. A once upon a time where a rich, spoiled brat was confined in the four corners of their mansion, being surrounded by bodyguards as though she was a precious artifact. With no friends nor freedom, Fate pitied her condition and decided to play nice, bringing the opportunity she had waited right on her doorstep. A valiant young Prince, claiming her to be the lost Heroine of Mamoria. The one that would restore peace in his realm and stop the age-old war between Light and Dark. However, sometimes, Fate could also be cruel. |Temporary Blurb| |Highest Rank: #6 in Fantasy |09-24-2017|

Epic Futuristic Dark-Fantasy Adventure --- Claudia is a rational existentialist with ties to them. Danjel is a devout Catholic raised to fear them. Everyone has witnessed violence between Humans and Darkling. Europe is at war, with citizens declaring allegiance to the ruling Union of Darkland Nations or the revolutionaries of the so-called Etats Liberté. Danjel and Claudia share a belief that lives are more important than borders, but they do not agree on the tactics they should use or when it may be righteous to stand and fight. Danjel's pacifist preaching combined with Claudia's knowledge of remnant information networks draws a following, even as foreign troops move toward their location. Fleeing conflict, their refugee caravan grows into a tribe: the Goth. The Goth travel war-torn Europe where Danjel and Claudia are viewed as living saints. Forces on both sides of the military conflict are threatened by the potential for Europe to fall under the sway of a single charismatic leader. They will use whatever assets they have to stop the Goth: terrorist squads, the US Army, even Claudia's vampire ex-boyfriend. ----- Rated 'M' for some scenes of sexuality, mild strong language, vampire-related blood and violence, and graphic military battle scenes. Warning: descriptions of terrorism and war. 3rd Draft. Cover by author, based on iStock photo of Regensberg, Germany by Mikhail Markovskiy.

A storm is brewing in Vorbereich. Twenty years after a war with the Lindtin powers that ended in horrible losses for the country and its allies, the country is still as broken and divided as it was when the war ended... except, of course, for the ruling classes, who go to balls and dinner parties while the rest of the country struggles to survive. However, one man believes he can change that: a man that is known simply as the Archangel. Many believe that what he does is going to finally unify Vorbereich and bring the country back to the strength it had before the war. However, when an outlaw, an heir to a fortune, and a police inspector cross paths, it becomes clear to them that his intentions are less than pure. And that it's up to them to stop him, before another war breaks out. Note: This is a sample.
