It’s times like these that I’m happy to be ensconced with you in our starship crusing the galaxy and not stuck on Earth with its heatwaves and forest fires. There’s a lot to be said for air that’s set at a constant, perfect temperature and filtered for impurities.
Seriously, if you’re suffering somewhere from extreme weather or even only hayfever, you have my sympathies. I don’t know how people coped before air conditioners were invented. Sadly, it looks like this is going to be the future for many areas of the world.
On the bright side, we now have even more of an excuse to stay inside and read books! As promised, now that space fantasy Dark Mage Rises is live on Amazon, I’m dropping the price for a few days for you guys. I’m doing the same with Daughter of Discord for those of you who haven’t begun the series yet. Don’t forget that you can pick up the prequel novella, Star Mage Exile free here.
Another piece of exciting news is that the Aeon 14 team recorded another podcast. You can watch it here. You can see me in my office, where I also sleep! My cat had a mad escapade during the recording of the podcast, involving lots of miaowing and running around, but I think James managed to edit all of that out! Next week, we’ll be talking about Carthage, my first collaboration with M.D. Cooper.
For a cooling change of pace, also check out the books in this week’s promotion, which are all based on the theme, Christmas in July. If we can’t have snow we can at least think about it.
Space fantasy novels
A galactic empire in turmoil…
Rival clans fighting for supremacy…
Dark secrets bursting into the light…
Time’s running out for Carina Lin. She’s given up her merc life in the hope of finding others like her—mages. But it’s a dicey endeavor. She can’t stay in one place too long because if her powers are revealed she faces slavery and torture.
A clue has led her to the home planet of one of the most powerful clans in the galaxy. After searching fruitlessly for information about her long-lost kindred, Carina decides it’s time to move on. Fate has other ideas.
Carina is sucked back into space warfare and becomes the meat in the sandwich between warring clans. If she plays her cards right, she can save those dear to her. If she loses, death will seem inviting.
A mage clan torn apart…
Evil deeds avenged…
Dark magic awakened…
Carina Lin escaped from captivity and freed her mage brothers and sisters, but she is quickly caught again. Her captors are the last people she wants to meet—the Dirksens. Carina defied this proud, vindictive clan when she rescued her kidnapped brother.
She must escape and find her siblings before the Dirksens realize who and what she is.
Meanwhile, a galactic war rages. Dark magic is stirring and about to join in the conflict. Carina is one of the few who can prevent the triumph of evil, if she chooses.
When the dark mage rises, who shall stand in his way?
