The Dragon, the Witch and the Railroad by Elizabeth Ann Scarborough

July 30, 2016 By Charlotte Holley Leave a Comment

Fantasy fans will be happy to discover the 5th book of the Seashell Archives collection by Elizabeth Ann Scarborough. Elizabeth Ann has not lost her touch for bringing her readers a huge dose of tongue-in-cheek humour, the kind where you stop and reread the lines to be sure the author really did say that! Even though it’s part of a series, this book is a perfectly legitimate beginning for a new reader, soon to be a fan, of this wonderful author.

Progress has transformed Queenston, capital city of Argonia. Once the land of witches, wizards, fairies, and other magical people and animals, since the Great War, the country has changed. Queenston, particularly, is now the city of contraptions and conveyances, including a modern international railroad.

In the Great War Argonia’s dragons allied with the armies to push back an invasion. For their assistance, the beasts shared what food remained as the country rebuilt itself. But with the war won, the allies came to “recover” the war-torn country, bringing with them new ideas and inventions, most of which only needed a supply of iron and a reliable source of heat for their boilers. The dragons were again recruited, tamed, altered and virtually enslaved to power Progress.

Verity Brown is a modern girl. The magic of her witchy foremothers has become, if not actually illegal, highly unfashionable. The only magic that matters to Verity is her own curse, forcing her to know and tell the truth regardless of convenience.

On Verity’s 16th birthday, a hot-air balloon crash kills her father. The balloon’s dragon and wrangler rescue Verity, but are blamed and sentenced to be put to death. Her honorable quest to save them and find her father’s murderer takes her straight into the den of the wild and ferocious Dragon Vitia.

Adonis by Violetta Antcliff

July 29, 2016 By Charlotte Holley Leave a Comment

Visitors from other planets are not usually a part of renting a cottage and Susan is a woman who feels she can take on anything, as long as she can identify the problem, she can discover an answer to it. Enter the image of an Adonis, a naked man on a rainy night – seared into her memory, and the awareness that an escaped prisoner is on the loose. Violetta Antcliff has woven a tale of mystery, brewed with a wee touch of fun.

Adonis by Violetta AntcliffCheck out Adonis by Violetta Antcliff

Susan is a strong woman; not even the break up of her marriage fazed her. She just picked herself up, brushed herself off and got on with life. She has a firm belief that for every problem there is an answer. However, when she rents a cottage on the edge of the Yorkshire Wolds, she finds her motto put to the test. UFOs, a naked man who claims to be an interplanetary agent, and a dangerous escaped prisoner are not typical everyday occurrences in her life. And as she is to find out to her dismay, a cup of tea is not the answer to the strange state of affairs she finds herself caught up in.

Hell’s Dodo by Tamara Lowery

July 29, 2016 By Charlotte Holley Leave a Comment

Author Tamara Lowery has a taste for roughness in Hell’s Dodo, the 5th in the {Adult Only} Waves of Darkness series – the saga of the pirate turned vampire Viktor Brandewyne.

http://gypsyshadow.com/TamaraLowery.html#Dodo

Viktor Brandewyne finds himself tasked with finding the most flighty of the Sisters of Power. He tracks her from New England to the ends of the earth. She sets him the task of retrieving three things as the price for a portion of her magic: a dragon’s egg, a dodo’s egg, and a drop of blood from the Daughter of the Dragon, one of the few beings capable of killing him.

Lady Carpathia has her own agenda concerning Viktor. Though she comes to realize just how dangerous he is, she still hopes to seduce and use him to overthrow her master before she ultimately destroys the pirate-turned-vampire.

Fraught with danger, Viktor’s chances of surviving this quest are almost as slim as those of him completing it. How can he acquire the eggs of a mythical beast or of a creature that has been extinct for nearly a century?

Ti by S. R. Jaborsky

July 29, 2016 By Charlotte Holley Leave a Comment

S. R. Jaborsky spins this tale Ti, the first in the Seron Ti series (the second, Ti Hypershear will be released in the fall of 2016), by taking the reader back in time to the 1940s, the time of World War II, and forward in evolution to a race whose development has paralleled Earth’s humans in many ways. If you like Sci-Fi, venture into this one!

Ti by S. R. Jaborsky

Ti by S. R. Jaborsky

http://gypsyshadow.com/SRJaborsky.html#Ti

Seron Ti’s military prowess was equaled only by her achievements made in the areas of science. However, her Travels for the advancement of The Chronicles of Dahr and the veneration of All were unsurpassed by any other Dahren Traveler. On this day she was to be celebrated by the Encyclopedians and indeed the entire Citizenry. But Seron held a secret. She must openly defy the Encyclopedians and institute chaos in the Hall. And she must escape Dahr.

Blain had been through hell. Employed by Worldwide Newsgroup, he was recovering at home from injuries while covering one of the damned wars. He glanced at his Pulitzer Medal for Journalism. Did it really mean anything? He was cynical and burned out. He didn’t know that 3 golden discs were about to lead to the most incredible journey of his life. And he would be unable to report it to anyone.

After the Martians by Steven R. Southard

July 29, 2016 By Charlotte Holley Leave a Comment

Some authors have a special talent for taking the reader on a journey across space and time – in After the Martians, a tale from the What Man Hath Wrought Series, Steven R. Southard takes the reader to a world of science fiction, an alternate reality where Earth is in the midst of the first world war – with the added twist of an invasion by the Martians being inserted into history.

After the Martians by Steven R. Southard

Check out After the Martians by Steven R. Southard

http://gypsyshadow.com/StevenSouthard.html#Martians

In 1901, the Martians attacked Earth, but tiny bacteria vanquished them. Their advanced weaponry lay everywhere—three-legged fighting machines, heat rays, and poison gas. Now, in 1917, The Great War rages across Europe but each side uses Martian technology.

Join Corporal Johnny Branch, a young man from Wyoming, as he pursues his dream to fight for America. Follow magazine photographer Frank Robinson while he roams the front lines, hoping to snap a photo conveying true American valor. Perhaps they’ll discover, as the Martians did before them, that little things can change the world.
