"For an Adventure"; those are the words engraved on the cover of Fox Berger's diary. Ten years have passed since she was given the diary, and it remains practically empty. After all, there is not much adventure in Greentown, a small, quiet farming town where no one comes, and no one leaves. In fact, the only interesting thing about it is the Life Stone, a powerful stone that is the source of its prosperity and life. One day, the town's peace is finally broken when a group of masked men arrive with a flash of light; Zan's Marauders. They steal the Life Stone and kidnap all the men. With the survival of the town looking bleak and little hope for the return of what was taken, Fox decides to set off on an adventure to save her people.

Early on into her journey,  warm, optimistic Fox meets cold,  cynical Adrien Flèche, a young archer with a tragic past and a vengeful heart. Two motives, one goal: to find Zan's Marauders. Soon after they team-up, they learn that there are five other "Power Stones", each with its own unique ability and just as immensely powerful. With two stones already in their possession, Zan's Marauders will cause as much misery and pain as they can in order to acquire the remaining stones, and throw the whole world into chaos. Fox and Adrien hop from town to town in a desperate race to reach the Power Stones before their enemies do.

Throughout the story, Fox finally has a chance to fill her diary with her thoughts and recounts of events she thought she would never see. Although she sees some wonders, she encounters many more horrors. In the face of war, inequity, and a world she never knew, Fox's strength and values are tested as she struggles to grasp the true meaning of an adventure. Will the duo's determination and efforts be enough to best their enemies? Or will Zan's Marauders achieve their ambition and control the towns with an oppressive rule?

"In the Moonlight" is the first book in "The Diary of a Fox" trilogy.

*COMPLETE* There are whispers across the kingdoms that the Paragon, that strangely gifted person who can wield all four Skills, has been found. They're wrong, of course. No one has caught the Paragon. Allayria should know: she's it. But Allayria doesn't want to be the Paragon, and in her pursuit of freedom she finds herself enmeshed in a web of lies, caught in a group who might be even more dangerous than she could have imagined. Still, she's not the only one who has problems: bigger tides of change and danger are shifting across the world she has been assigned to protect. The Jarles, a kingdom in the east, has begun moving across its borders, and there are strange murmurings about what they have done, and where all the children they abducted have gone. Faced with responsibilities she never wanted, and a life she thought she could never have, Allayria must decide how she will help--and if she will be the Paragon at all. _____________________ WIP Cover art and written work by Azi.

The original group is back... that's right, it's the sequel to Bedburg Hills. If you haven't read it yet, I advise doing so! More things will make sense in this story. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- New beginnings can be scary for some, the thought of changing itself is enough to send chills down the spines of others. When Kira and the others are forced to embrace change, they're also forced to embrace all the challenges that come with it; from finding love to fighting for their lives, from having babies to raising beautiful teenagers on a mission. When they're met with their biggest and most feared opponent yet, what will they do? Will they fight and take the stone they so badly need or will they be forced to surrender and possibly put their kind on the line? Will the children they raised with love and compassion, so differently than how they were brought up, be able to fight the demons that being supernatural will bring on? When new members are brought forth and asked to join will they come willingly or will a fight break out? There are so many crazy stories within one to be read. Join Kira & Jace, Justin & Esme, Kai & Rowan and their family as they set out on new paths to take the stones they so badly need to survive. The three stones are a lifeline, a lifeline that's in danger and a lifeline that many seek to destroy. Kira and the others are frantic to find them, collect them and bring peace to the supernatural world before the wrong hands take it and end their lives and all prior descendants, forever.

If that wasn't bad enough, her exam results are in... and they aren't good. But at least she has her friends. Asher, the responsible and strong boy who has known her all her life and Ed, the orphaned rebel who loves to stir up trouble. Then there's her, Marla, stubborn, fiery and just plain lost. Life on the estate is same-old same-old, until the senile World War Two veteran, Mr. Pelham, starts freaking Marla out with his staring and rambling, cryptic messages. Is he trying to warn her? Or hurt her? When the bored trio decide to teach the creepy old man it's rude to scare young girls, they learn far too late just how crucial it is to respect your elders. For his daughter, Bridget, has a power unlike anything they've ever seen before and she uses her deadly craft to send them to a place that will teach them the lesson of their lifetime. Bridget has sent them back in time, all the way to World War Two, throwing them into a secret fight for the survival of all magical folk in the world. Marla soon learns what it really means to be a True, and the power her absent father has kept from her all her life... Marla, Ed and Asher are thrown into a world they and their generation have no comprehension of, a world where love is a relic of a life left behind and your only duty is sacrificing all that you have.

Waking up face down in mud sucks any day of the week. But coming around in the sludge of a strange realm...? Well, that just redefines a bad day altogether. Trapped in an unfamiliar world, sixteen-year-old Quinn is frustrated that none of the strange Tree People appreciate his urgency to get back home to earth. Now he is faced with a choice that could change the course of his life: escape and find his own way home, or stay and help them find the cause of the poison ravishing their world. When the mind-reader unlocks one of the ancient mysteries of the Tree People it points to the only way of saving them from annihilation: they have to find the Power of Light. What exactly that means, the mind-reader doesn't reveal, but his next warning comes as a shock to all present: finding the mysterious Power of Light can only be done with the help of the dangerous enemy tribe whom they once called family. Quinn soon finds himself a little more entangled in the lives of these gifted beings than he'd care to be. Especially after meeting Jazz: the feisty girl from his world who seems to be a regular visitor to the world of Zoay. To Quinn's constant frustration, the aqua-eyed pixie makes it clear that she's not there to make friends. On their journey they'll brave bizarre encounters in dangerous alien forests, while sacrificing pride and will for the survival of all. Along the way Quinn finds more than he ever thought to seek: purpose, fulfillment and love. When the Power of Light is finally found a devastating discovery is made: if all of Zoay-including their enemy-want to live and prosper, one must be willing to sacrifice their life.

Jolette has lived just south of that land for all thirteen years of her life. But never once has she seen one of its people-until the day a Colorless boy turns up in her village, carrying one of his people's most prized possessions: the pendant of Free Will. She quickly becomes his friend, but she has barely had time to get to know him and name him Edmian when the Colorless come for him. By sheer luck she and Edmian escape. But her village, with everyone she knows, is captured and taken to the Colorless Land. Left to their own devices, the two set out to rescue the villagers while outrunning their own pursuers.

For the Colorless' magic is slowly destroying the villagers' humanity, and the Colorless People are preparing a war against all the world. What can two teenagers, a hidden royal, a military commander on leave, an old lady spirit, an elf and a dwarf possibly do against a power on the rise? And what about the two married women who were captured without their daughter? But sometimes the smallest individuals can change the course of history... COMPLETED 9-8-2019
