Forsaken: The Chosen Trilogy - Book One
Before you begin this story, I must warn you first. This is not a tale of dashing knights and lovely damsels awaiting rescue. It is not the tale of happy endings, with birdsong and rides into the sunset. It is a tale of light magic and dark, of dragons and monsters, of heroes and villains and the thin line between them. This is the tale of being broken, being made stronger, and then being broken again. This is a story of love of heartbreak so great if feels like your chest has been hollowed out and scraped clean, like you would never feel anything else ever again, and of love so powerful it can make even the gods tremble. This is not a happy story, but it is our story, and it is the only one I know how to tell. ********************** FORSAKEN is the first tale in the Saga of Darkness, following six brothers and sisters who have been named the Chosen of the Gods, destined to fight a great darkness that threatens their world. But evil wears many faces, and it will take the efforts of all- Kryssa, Brannyn, Lanya, Kylee, Alyxen, and Reyce- to survive the harrowing trials to come. ********************** FORSAKEN is a completed novel, being posted as a serial. Books Two through Five in the Saga of Darkness are also complete. Chapters posted every Monday and Friday.Complete

Amidst her mental and physical weaknesses, she is challenged to become a warrior. If not, endless lives will be corrupted and extinguished. What is the key to defeating the shadows that threaten Middle Earth as well as the darkness that intends to smother her soul?

As he journeys with the Fellowship to destroy the Ring of Power, he begins to peel the layers of the mystery surrounding Mirkwood and himself - a mystery that draws him closer to the maiden that travels with them. The earthborn must sacrifice all to fulfill her destiny - desires for a peaceful life, family, fellowship, and love. Will those she journeys with encourage her selfless intentions, or will they challenge her being and all that she desires? Uncover the secrets of Mirkwood, witness the earthborn's battle, and discover the element of the heart. ***I do not own or have any affiliation with J.R.R.

The Crimson Ember
The sky burned red the night Talvasa fell. The once-peaceful island, untouched by modern civilization, was the first to witness the arrival of Rovakai, an otherworldly behemoth whose molten scales and cosmic eye heralded destruction beyond human comprehension. With it came the Dreadshades-twisted, skeletal creatures that moved like shadows and fed on fear. By dawn, Talvasa was nothing but ashes. Ten years later, Kael Dravik wakes up every night drenched in sweat, haunted by the screams of his past. He was one of the few survivors of Selkirk, another island consumed by the crimson sky. No one believed his warnings. No one listened when he spoke of the horrors he had seen. Now, as Australia begins to fall, he knows the nightmare is repeating itself. And this time, the world is running out of places to hide. From the ruins of civilization, a desperate resistance forms: the Vanguard Initiative. Led by the battle-hardened Colonel Ethan Ward, it is a coalition of survivors, soldiers, and scientists united by one purpose-to uncover the origins of the Dreadshades and stop the crimson tide before humanity is wiped from existence. Leon, though reluctant, is forced to join them, carrying a secret that could change everything: a weakness buried in legend, hidden in salt.Complete
