The Archer’s Diary – Spotlight & Giveaway
“The Archer’s Diary” shines in its masterful combination of
medieval history with contemporary family drama and adventure.”
The Archer’s Diary
Book 1
by Liam Cadoc
Genre: Historical Action, Adventure, Crime Thriller
THE LEGEND IS REAL
Since the 14th century, Robin Hood has proven to be one of
the most enduring and versatile folk heroes. Medieval historians believed Robin
lived during the 12th or 13th century but despite decades of intense research
by contemporary scholars, solid evidence has never been found.
Until now.
Logan Daggett, son of Donald Daggett, well known CEO of one
of Australia’s largest international corporations, has his 21st birthday
celebrations disrupted by a family tragedy, the revelation of his mother’s
decades-old secret—and a birthday gift of a collection of centuries-old family
heirlooms. This series of events contrive to change the course of his life
forever.
Accompanied by his two closest friends, the young Aussie
sets out to uncover the truth behind the accident that irrevocably changed his
life, and to research the authenticity of the priceless heirlooms, completely
unaware of the adventure and dangers lurking around every corner.
During the course of their journey they uncover irrefutable
evidence that causes further turmoil among the family, spark controversy among
medieval scholars worldwide, and the potential of sparking upheaval to a
country’s history and creating conflict between two nations.
Liam Cadoc’s stunning debut to historical fiction sweeps
readers into a ruthless world where greed and corruption threaten to deprive a
nation of historical riches and the world of the truth behind a legendary hero.
This is Book 1 of a 2-book set.

Cadoc endeavors to create a feasible balance of historical
fact and fiction into his writing in order to meet his obligation, as an
author, to his readers. To that end he spends a large part of his conceptual
writing on researching the world in which the characters will inhabit.
“I’ve always had a fascination with history, particularly the medieval
period of England and the Arthurian Legend. Though my genre is historical
fiction, I hope that my readers will come away with a better understanding and
appreciation for how people survived and endured before the inception of the
basic luxuries we take for granted each day.”
Retiring in 2016, he then spent 9 years working on THE
ARCHER’S DIARY, his first historical fiction / modern thriller adventure novel.
Most of that time was devoted to in-depth research.
He penned his first fiction while in high school and was
quickly recognized by the English staff and his class for his vibrant
imagination. He was also a talented artist and, after graduating, followed a
45+ year career as a graphic designer in the publishing industry compelling him
to put aside writing for a number of years.

I left Perth, Australia to go East and find fame and fortune in the music business as a long-haired rock guitarist. I wrote poems and music, and my band used to open for some pretty big groups in my wild days. I gave it all up for love and got married (as you do when the right one comes along). Then, real life took over, children came along and I threatened to write a book for so many years my long-suffering wife eventually pushed me into it by buying me a laptop and said: “No more excuses, do it.” And so began this amazing journey.
My first book, Forever Night, was contracted and published by now defunct Totally Entwined Group ‘s Evidence Press. It features a returned veteran soldier who has suffered horrifically, physically and mentally to become a serial killer while hunting for his runaway wife. As an SAS soldier he is far more highly trained to kill and survive, than the cops are trained to stop him. If you enjoy dark, Scandinavian type crime thrillers, you will love this story.
That was followed by a trilogy, about the rise of a cop through the ranks from Detective to Detective Inspector, when his world falls apart. Domin8, is about a married man who is drawn into the dark world of online dating, until someone starts murdering his lovers. The Vigilante Taxi features a man who knows tragedy, his life has been full of it and with nothing to live for he becomes a vigilante during the night shift while driving his cab. When he falls in love, and wants to stop, it’s too late; the cops and an underworld figure are closing in. Burial Ground, is about newly appointed Detective Inspector Sam Collins, who is handed the job of finding a serial killer who has been killing and burying his victims in an old disused gravel pit for seventeen years. He is a close to a pure psychotic evil as you will find, worse then Hannibal Lecter, or anything from the mind of the great Stephen King.
Repo saw me return to two characters from Forever Night. New private investigator husband and wife sleuths trying to save a man from jail for a murder he did not commit. He returns home from working in a mine to find his wife gone, bank accounts empty, and fully restored classic muscle car repossessed. When his wife’s body is found, he is arrested for murder. Dillon and Jayne enter a world of illegal poker games, protected by the underworld, to find the real killer and free their first client.
Next, I wrote a beautiful love story/thriller about Jenny, who travels in time to come back to save the world from an all consuming blight that was genetically modified. She falls in love in the past, but can only stay for thirty-three days. This was published by: The Wild Rose Press of NY. I am very proud to say this book has been a finalist in three US literary awards and won the N.N. Light Book Heaven award for 2019 for Time Travel/ Time Travel Romance/Thriller
I now have a trilogy published with TWRP, called The Deadly Glimpses. Book 1 is called Glimpse, Memoir of a Serial Killer, and has just been released. Book 2, Glimpse, The Beautiful Deaths is due out soon and book 3, Glimpse, The Tender Killer will be released in three months. The trilogy follows the fortunes of two married colleges who are attracted to each other while working together to track down three murderers. What will the effect be on their marriages, and their relationship if they act on the desires they have? I was thrilled when a recent reviewer likened Glimpse, Memoir of a Serial Killer to Seven, and the Saw films, and I take that as very high praise indeed. The trilogy is growing with a two new additions being released soon, Glimpse, The Angel Shot, and Glimpse, Friday the 13th.
Winter at the Light is a suspense story set in 1952 on a remote lighthouse, where 20 year old Molly learns there is nowhere to hide on a lighthouse. Released on August the 10th 2020 many people have told me this story would make a fantastic film.
Thrillers and crime genres have always fascinated me, and in particular, the dark world of serial killers. I love a good, unputdownable, thriller. You know, the kind you just want to read one more chapter of at three in the morning before bed, but you have to be up at six to go to work. Have I succeeded in creating stories that can take people to that place? Boy I hope so.

Happy reading

FalconSaga
An elf afraid of opening his heart, and a human who is heir
to an awesome power:
Only by embracing their shared destiny can they save
Iceland…and each other.
FalconSaga
by Robert Winter
Genre: Epic Fantasy
In modern-day Iceland, a place of glaciers, volcanoes, and
legends, the Norns have foretold a sorcerous invasion that could destroy
everything.
Magnús, an elf of the huldufólk, is driven by the murder of his human lover a
century ago to save those humans he can, and to figure out what is behind
recent troll attacks on tourists. But the Norns have spoken. He must protect
Altair, a young human from Boston, who is bringing a dangerous magical force to
Iceland. If Magnús fails to keep Altair safe, the country will fall to a
sorcerer called the Black Priest. Yet if Altair lives, Magnús will meet his
doom.
For his part, Altair is a graduate student bullied to visit Iceland by mentors
who seem to have their own agenda. He knows nothing of elves, sorcerers or
prophecies. Suddenly, the handsome, mysterious Magnús is guiding Altair around
Reykjavik and into danger. A witch, a berserker, and more elves are along for
the quest across Iceland’s forbidding landscape. And why does everyone keeps
calling Altair “the Falcon”?
An elf and a human with a shared destiny. Will they solve the mystery linking
their fates before it is too late for all Iceland?
Robert Winter is a recovering lawyer who likes writing about
love and adventure much more than drafting a legal brief. Once upon a time, he
went to Georgetown University law school. Upon graduation, he moved to New York
to work in a large law firm, but later returned to Washington, DC. The legal
work was entertaining and Robert spent a lot of time in bankruptcy court,
usually representing either groups of creditor or the debtors themselves. But
legal work didn’t satisfy the urge Robert felt to tell stories.
When he turned 50, Robert left behind the (allegedly)
glamorous world of international law firms and bankruptcy court to pursue his
real passion. Now he lives in Montreal with his husband, studying French
between trips to exotic locations.
When Robert isn’t writing, he loves to cook Indian food. The
aromas of the spice blends excite and challenge him. Although he’s never been
to India, the food seems comforting and home-like. Add a trip to the Golden
Triangle to the bucket list!

A Sleeping Beauty
Retelling
Legends Reborn Book 2
by Marie-Hélène Lebeault
Genre: Clean Romantasy Fairytale Retelling
A cursed prince. A dangerous dream world. A girl who
holds the key to their salvation.
One kiss could awaken a kingdom… or doom it to eternal
darkness.
When a reluctant thief with the power to control thorns is
forced to break an ancient curse, she must risk entering the dangerous
Dreamplane to save a cursed prince—but some magic comes with a price too deadly
to pay.
In the kingdom of Solstraea, where the skies are gray and
thorns rule the land, a centuries-old curse has imprisoned Prince Kael in an
eternal sleep. Only one person can break the spell—Liora Thornhand, a thief
with a rare, dangerous gift she never wanted.
Captured and offered a deal she cannot refuse, Liora must
venture into the deadly Dreamplane to find Kael’s heart, hidden deep within a
magical rose. But as she battles nightmare creatures and faces her own dark
past, she learns that waking the prince might cost her more than just her
freedom—it might cost her life.
In a world filled with twisted thorns, cursed roses, and
dangerous shadows, Liora will have to decide: will she risk everything to save
a kingdom she doesn’t belong to, or will she let it fall into eternal darkness?
Perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas and Brigid

treacherous as it is beautiful.
