The Sword of the Guardian must be forged of perfection.
Kantal is a fighter, and he sings the warrior song. He has had to. Born with nothing more than a girl's name, he has endured a life of torment. But large obstacles do not imply small expectations. Quite the opposite in fact.
And his country has long suffered too, investing five hundred fruitless years in trying to retake rich lands that were stolen by invaders from the sea. But that may be about to change. Kantal is destined to become guardian of the crown.
Because Kantal has a talent, and he has a plan. Now all he needs is to be heard. Can he finally ride the tide of his hard fought reputation, and succeed where all others have failed? Can he finally sing his warrior song?
More on this fictional sword fantasy for boys, girls, or young adults of any age.
This is a novella and the prequel in a YA Sword and Sorcery series: The Age of Ku. It consists of a story in a story, so it is perhaps a little unorthodox. The inner story is the story of Kantal's childhood, and his path to learning the warrior song. The outer story covers his time as guardian of the crown, and acts as a prequel to another series. I really enjoyed exploring Kantal, and I hope you do too!
This book will be perfect for anyone who enjoyed:
- Kel Kade's Kings's Dark Tidings series;
- Duncan M. Hamilton's Wolf of the North series; or
- Philip C. Quaintrell's Echoes of Fates series.
Happy reading.

Sinister Secrets Book. 3
{Completed} Highest Ranking: #50 in Fantasy (05/19/17) Book. 3 I almost snorted. "You were scared of me?" I looked up at him, but he continued to watch Genius. "Foster, I was untrained and barely coming into my father's powers. I don't think I'll ever be a match for you." Physically. This time Foster looked down, truth shining in his eyes like sunlight reflecting off the polished surface of a lake. "I wasn't scared of your power, little pet." He said the nickname not out of anger or hate, but love and adoration. It was hard to imagine that at one point and time just hearing those words set my blood boiling... Now it was heated for another reason entirely. "I was scared that if I told you who you really were, you'd realize that I was no match for you." ------------ She is no queen.

Learning to fit in with the people who took him in at the brink of death, he learns that a war is raging between two kingdoms, and which one he belongs to, he cannot remember... if he belongs with to any of them.

Forgotten
//He had my hands pinned tightly above my head as I squirmed beneath him. The blade twisting between his fingers. He held it up to my throat. I was afraid but refused to show it. "Hurt me."

shadow heir
Synopsis It is a fantasy story about our main character, Jaron, a seasoned warrior and devoted father, who is determined to protect his child from a dangerous and mysterious fate. As the story unfolds, the threats surrounding them grow ever more perilous, drawing them into a world of ancient rivalries, supernatural powers, and political intrigue. There's a timeskip in wich we see how our characters grow and how they meet more people along the way. As the looming threat gets closer and closer. What begins as a struggle for survival becomes a sprawling adventure filled with unpredictable allies, fearsome enemies, and shocking revelations about the past. Along the way, humor and heartfelt moments balance the tension, making the journey as fun and lively as it is dangerous. The stakes rise with every chapter, leading to epic battles, cunning strategies, and intense duels that test not only strength but also bonds of trust and loyalty. With each step forward, the journey expands into uncharted lands, revealing new kingdoms, powerful clans, and forgotten legends. This is a long, ongoing saga-one that I'd love to see brought to life as a manga or anime-and I'll keep updating the series as the characters grow, the challenges mount, and the danger closes in. I would love for an artist to be co writer when we make a manga if adjustments are needed. Expect an unforgettable adventure full of battles, action, and heart. ---

Protector of the Crown
COMPLETED BOOK I was trained to be a weapon for the kingdom. I was forced into servitude to the King after my family was ripped from me. My new life was covered in the blood of my family...and now I had to protect the royal family who ordered my parents' death. They're all monsters, except for him...he was my charge and as much as I wanted to hate him, the prince was nothing like his vicious father. He was a warm light in my cold and dark world. I was supposed to be controlled, cold, calculating and deadly, but he made me crave freedom, warmth and all the things I thought died with my family. I no longer knew my path...but I knew it led to him. ****** Don't hesitate to let me know what you think of my book or if you see grammatical errors/plot holes! *16+ is recommended...sex is implied but not described (I came up with that little rhyme while I was brushing my teeth this morning!) and there are scenes of violence.Complete
