In Salaisia, a world inhabited by Fairions, Sprites, and Shadows, where myths and legends come to life and magic is more than fable. Saber, a young Shadow raised as a Prince, struggles to find the truth of his existence in a twisted string of lies that is far more tangled than he knows. When Saber inadvertently plays a role in the injury and near-death of his beloved little sister, his life comes crashing down around him. As the secrets of his past begin to unravel, he is forced to save himself by fleeing from the only home he has ever known. As he grapples with his emotions and strives to hold on to his convictions, he embarks on a search for truth. He is joined in his quest by Eririon, an old Fairion who harbors secrets of his own, and Twigdorwth, an eccentric, crusty wizard.

I am seeking representation for The Last White Faerie, a fiction series for young adults that stars a powerful young heroine who is at once deeply grounded in Christian ethics and strengths and totally accessible to young readers.  Daphne, an adolescent faerie, wants nothing more than to simply guide the human children she loves.  But destiny won’t let her have her way.  With the evil witch queens primed to seize both the human and faerie worlds, Daphne must choose between what she wants to do and what she’s called to do.  Only she can claim the mantle of the last White Faerie.

The Last White Faerie offers a world peopled by characters of Good and Evil.  The faeries draw their power from nature, while the Red Queen and Black Queen make sacrifices to the Dark Powers in their attempts to conquer the world.  Later they are joined by the Emerald Queen, a mysterious, sinister “ally” whose motives are unclear.  Daphne must not only fight this triumvirate, but also save the humans who get in their way, both innocent children, and lost souls she puts back on the right path.  “Strength” is the watchword for Daphne, for she is a strong character both in powers and self-esteem, and a strong, confident female figure.  She is a role model who leads by example, fighting against not only evil witches, but against the cynicism of our modern world.

Sword and Dagger, the first in a series with the working title Chronicles of the Singing Sword Brigade is a101,000 word, Y/A, adventure/fantasy illustrating conversion, spiritual growth and warfare.

Books two and three in the series are completed and a fourth is underway.

Artka gets swept up in events beyond his control when he and best friend Bilrood try their hand at highway robbery. He is caught, cast into prison, drafted into the empire’s army, trained for combat and sent off to war where he encounters both visible and invisible friendly forces, and human “enemies” that seek his well-being!

These enemy soldiers possess “mystical” swords that glow with engraved, cryptic runes that are instructions from their liege, Logon Xychirion.

Artka’s worldview is turned upside-down as he receives the king’s amnesty, encounters dangerous cusps, tophets, Sharpointers, Wholebladers, Daggermen, lion poachers and true friends on his quest into the Prophecy Mountains to find Saygus the Sage and be retrained to join Logon’s army.

One million people have dropped dead in New Jersey in less than a year.

  No warning.

  No symptoms.

  No explanation.

  At the same time, a smaller group of people has developed paranormal abilities like healing and flying and no one knows why—not even these “metahumans” themselves. Afraid that these metahumans are terrorists or some kind of alien race, the military tries to exterminate them. So the metahumans must go on the run, trying to figure out where their powers are from while at the same time trying to stay alive. What follows is a quest for truth that leads to a mysterious revelation of the origins of the human race.

What does a mission to Mars, ancient astronauts, and the alleged “face” and pyramids on the surface of the red planet have to do with the rise of the antichrist or the return of Jesus? Jeremy Johnson and his fellow astronauts find out when they encounter other “life forms” in their exploration. Is some of the crew just seeing things? Extraterrestrials, angels or demons? Or are they possibly infected with some hallucinogenic Martian virus that is driving them to wreak apparent self-inflicted harm, to resolve to irrational behavior and even to kill themselves? They discover that the simultaneous disappearance of millions on earth and even some among them and the supernatural empowerment of their commander are not just coincidental. Mavor is an old world Chaldean word for “the rebel.” In Roman and Greek mythology, Mavor or Mars Quirinus is the “god of fortresses”.

“And the king shall do as he wills. He shall exalt himself and magnify himself above every god, and shall speak astonishing things against the God of gods. He shall prosper till the indignation is accomplished; for what is decreed shall be done. He shall pay no attention to the gods of his fathers, or to the one beloved by women. He shall not pay attention to any other god, for he shall magnify himself above all. He shall honor the god of fortresses instead of these. A god whom his fathers did not know he shall honor with gold and silver, with precious stones and costly gifts.” Daniel 11:36-38, ESV

From ancient history… to the Final Chapters        

Brew discovers he is a single word in The Book of Told, written by an author he cannot see. This is the catalyst for a series of curious secrets, which draw him unwillingly into the greatest battle literarily fought—the Battle of Words.

Sabotaged by a rival understudy within his own story, the author—Leonard Told—must use what Words he can to create the most powerful statement ever declared! Brew’s character must stand up to the rival’s genius, and salvage Told’s reputation by garnering him all-time best-selling status.

What word are you in his story (history)?

Endorsement:

In The Book of Told K A Gunn blends lived experience with metahistory, tragedy with punning, technology and theology.  Her story has too much life in it to be simple allegory, and reads as an extended meditation on the phrase, "in the beginning was the Word..."  Literary criticism is turned inside out and it is possible that your life might be also. 

Pastor R.D. Driver-Burgess, M.Th. 

Brief Description – Eyes to See
What if everything you know about the puzzle of your life is missing just a few, crucial pieces? Daniel’s father left him and his mother about the time Dan was learning to walk. Dan didn’t know his choice of physics as a career would set him on the same path as his father. As they travel the rocky road toward reconciliation they begin a project which will reveal those missing pieces and change lives around the world.
Meanwhile, Pastor Phil seeks to revive his shrinking, struggling church. He thinks a focus on the bible’s mandate to care for the earth will attract the environmentally minded. What he doesn’t understand is that he doesn’t build the church. Jesus does. And that the research pursued by Dan and his father will show everyone how creation itself has a ‘voice’ in the matter.

There is a sequel in the works. I am currently in the plot development stage.

With only her father’s stallion and her skills as a capable rider, Inesca evades the forces that would keep her trapped in the lowly Eastern Province after her father’s death and receives the honor of being chosen as a rider for the Great Races of Rienar. But is she ready to commit herself to this life? What of the clues that her father gave her about his past in Rienar? Many perils await Inesca as she tries to solve the riddle of her father’s decision to flee his homeland and leave two sons behind. But Inesca has other things to worry about. Rienar is being attacked by mercenaries who claim they will break the power of the Lords of the Rienar, the patrons of the Great Races. The races themselves are dangerous and nothing about the competition is friendly. What will Inesca do when she finds herself racing against her half-brothers?

Trusting that the God of her father has a plan for her life, Inesca uses what she has been given to face every threat and obstacle in her path, but the cost of uniting a family long-divided by secrets may be greater than she imagined.

Ever wonder, “Why am I here?” For Fourteen-year-old Simon Whittaker the answer is awaiting on the other side of a magic portal…but so is the darkest, primal evil.

One fall morning Simon’s best friend, Jessica Wells, asks him to join her family on a last-minute trip to Itasca State Park. Once there, Jessica reveals that her family has been watching over Simon his whole life because he holds the key to restoring peace to another world called Magnanthia. Unfortunately, someone, or something, has come through a portal looking for him.
Jessica needs to get Simon to the headwaters of the great Mississippi River where a secret portal awaits him at the river’s bottom.

When demented soul seers come through a portal looking for Simon, they find Jak Jakobsin instead. Jak is a sixteen-year-old boy with an extremely cruel disposition and a dark past. Seeing something in Jak that Bedlam’s overlord wants, the soul seers drag Jak through the portal, back to Magnanthia.

Befriended by a talking raven, Jak learns what Bedlam’s overlord plans on doing to him. Jak attempts to escape, but giant spider’s attack him and he’s almost eaten alive. Jak has no choice, but to stay in Bedlam.

It is in this way that two different paths are set in motion, destined to come to an electrifying climax.

Q: Would another LEFT BEHIND fantasy about an evaporated Church be an appropriate gift to a convulsing planet?

Freak says: no! And he’s risking his life to set the world straight.

FREAK UNLEASHED is the second book of a self-published Supernatural Apocalyptic Thriller series that is already drawing press interest and winning awards. (See news article: http://www.villagerpublishing.com/86358/news/apocalypse-now-or-pretty-soon/)

Mark Hanson–the reluctant participant observer who narrates Freak’s campaign–gawks as a charismatic televangelist plummets from the heavens during a mid-flight explosion over the Colorado Rockies. On his side of the terror, the falling preacher meets a pair of angles who urge him to reset his message for the looming End of Days: no pre-trib rapture, and no far-fetched slick European religiously pluralistic Anti-Christ.

HINT: Watch for a 666 enemy of Israel–and of Christianity–who matches the prophecies better and is far more congruent with today’s daily news. Say, a resurrected Islamic Caliphate led by a Mideast Beast.

Story: Convinced he’s heard from God, the renewed preacher–with a face from hell–assumes the name, Freak. A beautiful television reporter and a likable cameraman join Team Freak in launching a prophetic global media blitz destined to awaken the church and to prepare humanity for the Apocalypse… and for the imminent return of the Lord.

As the prophet’s miracles and predictions create media frenzy and draw millions of followers, they also ignite the wrath of mortals and the deadly opposition of Dark Riders from beyond.

Elves known as the Wendu have lived as slaves in the land of Orîma for 400 years, ever since they were defeated in battle and they and their queen were taken there in chains. They long to be free, to return to their homeland, Mendalona, and to  have their a kingdom again.
    Then, in one courageous act, Aluana Quillasingua, a highborn singing girl in a governor’s mansion, risks her life to take back the Tzîlura, the greatest treasure of the Wendu and the symbol of their ancient kingdom. She flees to a village of Elves, where she meets Bantaro Kelombé, a slave-warrior in Orîma’s army, and his friend, Dolgar. They set out that same night, intent on getting Aluana safely out of Orîma. They stay one step ahead of their pursuers and cross the desert to hills where Bantaro and Dolgar slay a dragon.
    Once in Mendalona, they meet runaway Elves who, under a self-proclaimed king, Nendo Wenyéan, have their own ‘independent’ city. But the price for dwelling within its walls is high: they must bow down to and pay tribute to the dragon, Arastael-raku, who dwells in the ruins of the Wendu’s ancient capitol. In the climax, Bantaro overcomes his deepset fears to slay the fire-drake, and Aluana forsakes romantic love that cannot be hers, and accepts a role she had neither sought nor desired—that of the Queen of the Wendu.

Sir Herman is an unusual knight. With his awkward, insecure nature, he's far from being a brave, dashing warrior. When the dragon returns to terrorize the people, will Herman be able to find courage to save the kingdom from a fiery destruction?

When he returns to earth, he vows to rescue them from their fate, no matter the cost.

For hundreds of years, strange things have been washing up on the shores of Darcentaria. But when a young foreign woman named El is found unconscious on the beach amidst the burning wreckage of a strange metal craft, the villagers of Odessa are immediately suspicious – is she an agent of the Dalriadan Empire, their cruel oppressors for as long as they can remember? Or does she come from the Outside, the vast and legendary lands beyond their borders from which no man or woman alive has ever returned?

Torsten Eiselher, a talented young swordsman, has spent the last nine years of his life wrongfully imprisoned by his uncle, the Empire’s ruler. Betrayed and deceived at every turn, Torsten has survived by keeping a firm grip on his sword – and staying well away from anything to do with the Outside. But when his young sister is murdered, Torsten finds himself irrevocably drawn to El despite her Outsider heritage – and he begins to question everything he has been told about her world.

Intrigued by the existence of a powerful and dangerously advanced world within his reach, the Empire’s ruler, Jurien Arminius, launches a hunt for El and the two Outsiders that arrived with her – the ones who could help him win his war against Torsten and the rebellion that threatens to topple his Empire. 

Suddenly, Torsten is forced to choose between defeating his long-term enemy and saving the woman he has come to love…

In the Seers & Seekers saga, parallel stories of angels, fallen angels, humans, and transhumans play out under the looming shadow of the apocalypse, the End Times. Book One, Visions of the Blind, is set in the distant future. A guardian angel comes to earth when a baby boy is born. But she’s not your typical guardian angel. She comes from Heaven, but Heaven didn’t send her. She’s not sure who did. She just follows the call of The Voice. Her descent to Earth coincides with the ascent of an ancient power from the depths of the Abyss. When this mysterious power invades the spiritual heart of her human, she must fight to help free him. She quickly learns that the path she has chosen leads to a dangerous place—maybe even to the end of Earth.

Through mission preparation, and a desperation to find his missing friend, Qua is confronted with the evidence of God’s love. He learns at last that his assignment mirrors that of God’s Son Himself—Go to a world that doesn’t know you exist. Seek for a son who is missing. Bring him home again. In succeeding with the mission Qua sees the evidence of God’s enduring love and comes home to God himself.

Sela is nineteen years old and a murderer.

Hunted by the wealthy, well-connected family of the man she accidentally killed, Sela Meriweather surrenders her freedom to face her chosen punishment. After she is unexpectedly sentenced to death, Sela is at the last moment offered another option: lifetime voluntary exile to Azazel, the enormous prison-island where, alongside dangerous criminals like herself, firstborn children of the Old Town chosen by the lot are sent to atone for the sins of their families… the same prison where her oldest sister Liri was sent six years ago, never to be heard of again. Hoping to be reunited with Liri and atone for her terrible crime, Sela agrees to go into exile, not knowing that Azazel is a punishment far worse than death…

That is, until she meets Caleb Alexander, one of the elected Righteous, whose path to widespread renown is guaranteed so long as he can last a year as an overseer, preventing the other guards from fraternising with the prisoners. Drawn to Azazel’s most recent arrival, Caleb wrestles with the implications of his new role and is haunted by the rule that forbids any contact between jailer and prisoner. When the prisoners of Azazel involve Sela in their plans to mutiny against the Old Town’s rule, Caleb is forced to choose between his growing regard for Sela and the beliefs that form the very fabric of his society.

After fate delivers a devastating blow, Sela and Caleb must work together to stay alive, while uncovering the truth behind the very powers that created Azazel in the first place. While Caleb tries to resist his growing attraction, Sela struggles with the weight of her past. How can she find absolution for the guilt staining her soul? And what will happen to Sela and Caleb’s fledgling friendship when he discovers the truth about her past – a truth which could divide them permanently?
