The first is by my friend Remi Black, who likes fantasy with a bit of a harder edge. (I like my fantasy light, as you can tell from my More than a Wizard. I'm currently working on a sequel to that book. I gave you a sneak peek a couple of weeks ago. Look for more sneak peeks later.)
Remi Black is writing the Enclave series: wizards against sorcerers, wyre against Rhoghieri, Fae against dragons.
- The first book dealt with the wizards and Fae fighting a sorcerer and wyre: Weave a Wizardry Web. This story has dual protagonists: A minor wizard Camisse finds herself attracted to a Fae in disguise while the great wizard Alstera struggles alone against the temptations of darker power.
- The second book Dream a Deadly Dream picks up with Alstera, one of Web's protagonists, trying to help a countess-in-hiding, accused of her father's death. With Alstera's help, Cherai decides to find the reason her father was assassinated and regain her rank and standing.
- The third book, just out, is Sing a Graveyard Song. Alstera continues her journey south, heading into snow-locked mountains to help villagers fight a re-animated corpse, the Death Walking. A bit of a horror story, which is one of the reasons I say Remi has a harder fantasy edge than the rest of us publishing with Writers Ink.
The second book is by Edie Roones and will be published on Tax Day, April 15, but you can pre-order it now.
- Winter Sorcery, third in the Seasons in Sansward series: When a Gitane WitchMaster pursues two Frenc spies who stole a sphere of power, can a half-trained mage and a simple temple cleric help them escape?
- The second book in the series, Autumn Spells, is one of my favorites: fantasy with a great couple: Autumn Spells pits the Green mage Saisha against an aged sorceress who needs a younger body to continue to live. Helping Saisha is a keep warder Hethan who falls into the sorceress’ trap to capture a mage.
- First out by Edie was Summer Sieges which presented the story of Beren, a warder for a castlekeep. She must lead a handful of people in escaping from the Watrani horde that conquers their keep. After escaping through a horrible underveil world, Beren meets the enchanted Prica Storr and helps free him from a curse hundreds of years old that transformed him into a wolf. With only a magicked sword for defense against sorcery, can they defeat a Gitane WitchMaster and his apprentices?
