As always, click on the cover for the Amazon link!
The blurb-
A novella about a Master Mentalist who has lost his ability to collect the Power for the magic that keeps the True Men in control of the Three Part Alliance. He’s lost his job, his family has distanced itself from him . . .
Ivan Zima didn’t quit, he adopted his servants and got on with life. And when those kids went off to college, he adopted more kids. After all, who doesn’t need a horse-crazy teenager, a juvenile delinquent, and three cute little girls as your empire crumbles and falls?
Next up is Melissa Olthoff with a new book, Rise from Ruin
The blurb-
When a prank bonds Harper Tavros to a fierce griffin instead of the dragon she always dreamed of, she must battle her doubts and rise to the front lines, forging an unbreakable alliance to save her country from impending doom.
Together we fly, divided we fall.
All Harper Tavros ever wanted was to be a dragon rider.
But after a prank goes wrong, she ends up soul bonded to a griffin. Now, she’ll have to learn an entirely new skillset before she ends up on the front lines of a war her country is slowly losing.
If she’s going to make a difference, she’ll need to rise up from the ruin of her dreams and embrace a new path. One that includes her accidental bondmate, an utterly ridiculous, insanely brave griffin. But in order to form a strong enough bond to defend their country, they’ll need to keep the pressures of war, loss, and doubt from tearing them apart. Because the only way Harper and her griffin will survive is together.
Last but certainly not least, another anthology from Raconteur Press, Mad Science!
