Ever since Mara and Kat were born, there was something weird about them, like when a horned viper crawled into Mara's cot, when she was 1, rather then bite her or attack her, it curled up beside her, and she kept it, naming it Mr. Nibbles. And when Kat found an African Bush Viper, when they were not even remotely close to Africa, like, at all, and kept it, gifting it the name, Elmo. So it didn't come as a shock when their family discovered the truth, Kat and Mara were two of the last known Snake Tamers, children of the monster in many of the urban legends, The Snake Queen, to exist. Mara and Kat's mothers agree to keep it a secret, until the girls have earned two snakes each, so they would have better protection from The Snake Queen's only rivals, The Hunters, a group of elite men and woman who have been trained like assassins.
On their 14th birthday, both Kat and Mara find a second snake, Mara, a carpet python, called Mr. Fluffies, and Kat, an king cobra named Lewis the Fdonk, or, more commonly, Lewis, and suddenly their worlds collapse, Hell literally breaks lose, Heaven turns out to be full of bitchy angels, and the world is full of magic, oh joy!
My story guys! I thought up the idea with @4_Ever_Editor while looking at a book about snakes at school so All Rights Reserved to me and her
I made the cover, but credit to artist for the lines I used to make it.
This contains a hell load of swearing, blood, and gore, so if you can't handle that, move along
There will be many references to other books, please note that I only own Snake Tamers (along with Esralthian Queen and Army of Dancers, two books I'm currently writing), and that this is me giving full credit to all the original authors!
