Shadow's Fall
C.M. Simpson
Shadow’s Fall is the third and final novel in the Shadow series
trilogy. This tale contains strong elements of horror, following the path of a
small group of heroes who must work together to prevent an ancient evil’s
escape.
High
Priest Urkhrist has settled to his task as the keeper of Beauwallin’s prison.
With his long-time friend and companion, Vorgren, guarding his back, and the
spymaster’s apprentice, Tara Bloodthorn, acting as his representative in the
city of Thargood, he had thought the battle over, but something is wrong.
Beauwallin stirs within his prison, and wizards, priests and sorcerers are
being taken from Thargood’s streets. The pattern is similar to the one they saw
when Beauwallin attempted to break free the last time. Gilzereet must find out
if the Old One is trying to escape, again, and discover how he is garnering the
power to do so—and then he must try to find a way to defeat him, to succeed,
where a pantheon of gods has already failed.
Shadow’s Fall is available on Smashwords, Kindle, Kobo, Smashwords, iTunes and Nook.

Troll-Mist Morning
Carlie Simonsen
Troll-Mist
Morning is the
story of a teen who goes the extra mile so his mum can feel safe. Early morning
starts, and standing around in the mist in the middle of winter, however, are
one thing; trolls are another. When magic returns to the world and the trolls
come, too, how is Daniel going to get his mum to see sense? Troll-Mist
Morning is the first book in the series exploring what happens When
Worlds Collide.
When Daniel’s mum wakes him at five-thirty in
the morning, he knows it’s so she can go and take photographs. It doesn’t seem
to matter how many times he points out that most photographers take their early
morning shots in perfect safety, his mum just can’t feel safe—so Daniel goes
with her, even when its early and cold and the mist hasn’t cleared. Especially
when the mist hasn’t cleared. Muggers, Daniel can handle, but what on Earth is
he going to do about trolls?
Troll-Mist Morning is about family, and caring for
even the crazy members. It’s about a young person who looks after his mum, even
when he doesn’t see the same kind of dangers.
Troll-Mist Morning is available from Smashwords,
Amazon-Kindle, Nook, Kobo, and iTunes.
