Tales of Arduin takes place in the world of Maeroth in a kingdom known as Arduin. Tales of Arduin is going to be the name of the series this book's title will be decided upon later. This book follows the adventures of Pelaron, Garen, and Desam as they are set upon there own separate journeys. Each journey playing its own part in a prophecy foretold centuries ago.
Pelaron, or Pel as his friends call him, is different from the rest of the boys in the village in two ways. First he is the child of a Blade-Master, and thus has been training to be one. Second is his appearance, his hair is the color of flames and often times when the wind is strong it will appear that his head is on fire, and his eyes are the color of hot embers. Not only does he have to deal with this fact as he grows up, but he also learns a secret. He can use magic.
Garen has spent his entire life on the Isle of Blades, or at least what he can remember of it. The Isle is where most Blade-Masters train in combat until they are ready to leave on their own. Garen arrived on the island through unconventional means, by becoming a stow-a-way, because of this the Blade-Masters took him in and decided to train him. Now after years of training he finally achieves his goal of becoming a Blade-Master, but he learns a secret that drastically changes the plan he had made for himself.
Desam is a thief, no beating around the bush here, he steals from people. He grew up the son of a farmer, but one night in a single fell swoop all that he held dear was taken from him. Now he is after two things, survival and revenge. Survival in an inhospitable forest where thievery is the best option at survival, and Revenge against the people who took everything away from him. Yet prophecy may just have a totally different fate in mind for this young criminal, he may just turn out to be the most important piece in the puzzle known as prophecy yet. Is he? Well you'll just have to wait and see.

Elfhaven (the Danu Cycle: Fiann Trilogy Book 2)
The outposts are one thing, fey court is another entirely. With an inherited title she didn't earn and massive shoes to fill, Niamh tries to adjust to fey court. Dwendardian's forces are bombarding the castle, demanding Niamh's head for their leader. The harder she trains, the less adequate she feels, not in the least when her growing power only seems to be present when Eamon's annoying her. There is very little difference between love, lust and obsession. But, there is more than looming threats to the safety of all realms; the king's sons are caught in their own games and aren't averse to getting someone killed. While Eamon reminds himself his feelings for Niamh go no further than a simple fey obsession, he is still involved in the tug of war for power among the king's children. Fey obsession is a dangerous thing... So, oaths are formed and relationships tested as Niamh and Eamon are forced to hide away with the hope the fey can draw the fomorians away from Elfhaven. There, their own relationship is tested as Niamh gives in to her attraction to him. ...and, Eamon's will not be the only oath broken. But, once the threat is passed and they are back among others, Eamon is cold, distant, and his oath is near broken. But, not as broken as Killian, who senses the connection now forged between Eamon and Niamh. In faery, friend and foe hangs on a single whim. As Niamh continues to learn more about her fey heritage, she will come to see that there are many layers to the fey psyche. And, while she's slowly shedding some humanity and becoming one of them, she's only barely scratched the surface.Complete

The Last Knights of Cambria Book 1: Echoes of Gideon
Gideon Saint is dying for something exciting to happen in his life. With his love of history, he figures an internship at the museum has to be a good start, right? Anything is better than listening to his parents argue or sitting alone in his room doing research no one but him seems to care about. A chance encounter with a magical ring leaves him transported to an alternate version of ancient Wales, or as it was sometimes called, Cambria. 1432 Wales, to be exact. Here magic is the most powerful weapon of all as kings vie for power. Good thing Gideon's teleportation from the present has also left him with the ability to use magic, and he's quickly regarded as a powerful wizard. In this timeline, Wales maintained it's independence, but that's about to change. Henry V is on the throne of the England, and the greatest warrior king England has ever had has set his sights on Wales. Can Gideon help save his newfound friends and master his new powers, while living a double life in the 21st century? Ahem, living people die, dying people live, Henry V is here and he's awesome despite being the main antagonist, everybody is vaguely gay, swords are described in loving detail, people are not, lovely platonic friendships, did we mention swords? Yes, you may learn something about history, but that's a risk you'll have to take. Basically, think of this as a Percy Jackson type of adventure, but it's historical fiction instead of Greek gods. The narrator is 15 and the major supporting characters are 14, 17, and 19. That said, there's nothing in the way of content that's inappropriate for a younger reader. As always if you're not here to go on a fun little adventure find a different story. Trigger/Content: very mild language, some magic violence, fantasy violence. Self-harm is briefly discussed. Adoption issues are discussed as well as brief scenes of a abusive family. Characters briefly mention crushes and or dating, no real innuendos.Complete
