Now on Kobo
I made the big decision to move off of exclusivity on Amazon and start offering book 1 of The War of Destiny series on Kobo as well. It is my understanding that it is more popular in other countries such as Canada and Australia among others. I've also heard that some US readers are moving away from Amazon as well.
I am planning to start offering book 2: Pursuit into Darkness on Kobo as well, hopefu Read more of this blog post »

| I give this 3.5 stars. This isn't my normal genre, but the blurb and cover was interesting to me. I actually liked some of the characters (Tarrick was not really among them) as the story progressed. I liked Roselina and Silva among a few other hunter ...more | |

| I enjoyed this story. It had some interesting twists and turns, some of which I saw coming, others that I didn't. The author did a good job of developing the world building and lore. Rose's frustration and envy of not having the magic others had was ...more | |

“Aren’t you afraid?" I asked them telepathically.
"Terrified," Christy confessed. When I stared, I could see a fine tremor go through her. "However, that does not change anything."
"This is not the first time we have encountered Valentino. We have tried to fight him twice before, and once he tried to chase us through Southern France. Our group has gotten pretty good at evasion,"Matthew added.
"You mean running and hiding?"
"I prefer to call it a tactical retreat.”

“Sometimes, Hoss,” he said very gently, “you lose. Sometimes the darkness takes everyone. Sometimes the monster escapes to kill again another day.” He shook his head and looked down. “Sometimes, Hoss, the innocent little ones are murdered. And there’s not one goddamned thing you can do about it.”

“A thousand curses on you and those who spawned you! You've plagued me long enough, you stygian fiend! I don't know what sulfurous pit you've crawled out of, but I mean to return you to it!
