BOOK DESCRIPTION


This is the story of Montayna, a young woman born of both light and dark magik who never knew her parents.


She earns her freedom with a bit of magik even she was hardly aware of, but her skill is growing and she needs to find answers. Who is she? Where did her powers come from? To find those answers she sets out on a journey of discovery, both inward and outward, of dark mysteries as well as light. Will she master them, or they her?


She is inexperienced and faces incredible dangers in the course of her quest to defeat the darkness that is spreading across the land.


Her journey takes her through a landscape of wizards, elves, faeries and wolves, as she throws herself headlong into the fray to rid her world of the threat by the Dark Lord.


It is a journey that will eventually change Montayna as well as the world around her.

Fairy Garden Friday: “Naked Ladies”

These flowers are referred to as “Naked Ladies” or “Surprise Lillies” because the green parts come up in the Spring and the flower comes up without the green base in July.  Beautiful bulbs that multiply and you can dig up and plant in other places.  Enjoy!

The terms may not (but may) interest bestselling published authors or thriving self-published authors, but may attract midlist published authors and many self-published authors.



Evidently, the program will include Amazon-featured marketing. This is likely to draw huge interest, assuming that it means more than the usual customers-also-bought lists and such.
