Over 1,000 pages sure to delight fans of kickass heroine Urban Fantasy with story of lost dragon egg in this special complete collection of five full length novels written by Author Joanna Mazurkiewicz. Dragon Fever will destroy not one world, but two—unless she can atone for the sins of her past to protect the future.

Once upon a time, non-magical warden Fran stole a golden dragon egg.

Now her only job is to protect it. So when a crack opens between worlds, she escapes into London, a land she’s only heard of in stories.

But death follows her.

Hounded by Dark Ones and the knowledge that the egg won’t survive in the mundane world of humans, Fran gathers a team to save the egg, protect magic, and reveal the truth that could cure many dying wardens.

It’s still not enough.

Until she meets Idris, half-mage and half-human. He’s a Dark One, and Fran’s convinced he’s her enemy. Still, there’s something between them that makes her want to trust him.

Between them, they might just be able to save everything.

Spotlight: Warm Bodies

by

Warm Bodies: A Novel (The Warm Bodies Series Book 1) Kindle Edition by Isaac Marion (Author)

Warm Bodies is a paranormal romance with a tall, dark, dashing lead who is quick witted and … no. The lead is pale, and talks in monosyllables. Fortunately, as dull a conversationalist as “R” may be, his mind is alive.

This is another traditionally published book that has come on sale lately. It’s sweet, well worth reading, and definitely a fantasy not sci-fi … the enemy is not zombies in the end.

It’s currently on sale in the US and Canada for $2.99. If you want a feel good Christmas … err … Post Apocalyptic fantasy romance, I highly recommend it. Considering the year we’ve been having, it might be just the thing.

Click for current price: Amazon US, United Kingdom, Canada, Germany, Australia

The court of the gryphon king has ever been a dangerous and seductive place where Ishtar’s blessing is both the hot breath of passion and the cold kiss of steel.

Journey to ancient Sumer, to the land of gryphons, lamassu, and anunnaki in these tales of fantasy and romance. With over 1000+ pages of action-packed plot, rich world-building, and noble gryphon shifter kings, don’t miss these five tales if you like tenaciously loyal heroines, magic, and swoon-worthy happily ever afters.

Ishtar’s Blade:

As the childhood companion of King Ditanu, Iltani never doubted her place in either his kingdom or his heart.

Then duty called her away to complete her training.

Now, a woman grown and a sword-maiden to the goddess Ishtar, Iltani returns and takes up her sacred destiny to protect the royal line.

But so much has changed.

Ditanu most of all. The youth she knew is gone. A stoic, untouchable king now sits the throne.

Does anything of their once deep bond survive?

Iltani must swiftly find her place in a court where cunning governors plot treason, trusted advisers orchestrate deceptions, and noblewomen seek to beguile King Ditanu using methods both fair and foul.

But the greatest threat of all is no mortal adversary.

Ereshkigal, the Queen of the Underworld, desires to make Ditanu her consort and seize his kingdom for her own.

The long sought Higgs boson has been discovered at the Large Hadron Collider in Geneva. Scientists rejoice in the confirmation of quantum theory, but a reporter attending the press conference believes they may be hiding something.​

​​Nala Pasquier is a particle physicist at Fermi National Laboratory in Illinois. Building on the 2012 discovery, she has produced a working prototype with capabilities that are nothing less than astonishing.

Daniel Rice is a government science investigator with a knack for uncovering the details that others miss. But when he’s assigned to investigate a UFO over Nevada, he’ll need more than scientific skills, he’ll need every bit of patience he can muster.

No Man Can Tame (Dark-Elves of Nightbloom Book 1) Kindle Edition by Miranda Honfleur (Author)

FREE as of December 4, 2020 6AM
Click for current price: Amazon US, United Kingdom, Canada, Germany, Australia

A human princess. A dark-elf prince. A kiss of fire and powder.

After a failed courtship in an ally kingdom, twenty-one-year-old Princess Alessandra returns home to a land torn apart by mutual hatred between the humans and the dark-elves. The “Beast Princess,” as Aless is known by courtiers, confidently sets her mind to ways of making peace, but her father has already decided for her: she is to marry one of the mysterious and monstrous dark-elves to forge a treaty, and go on a Royal Progress across the kingdom to flaunt their harmonious union. While she intends to preserve the peace, the Beast Princess has plans of her own.

Prince Veron has been raised knowing his life is not his own, but to be bargained away by his mother, the queen of Nozva Rozkveta, to strengthen the dark-elf queendom. When his mother tells him he is to marry a self-absorbed, vile human, he is determined to do his duty regardless of his personal feelings. After arriving at the human capital, he finds the “Beast Princess” rebellious and untamed—and not to be trusted.

Aless and Veron face opposition at every turn, with humans and dark-elves alike opposing the union violently, as well as their own feelings of dissonance toward each other. Can two people from cultures that despise one another fall in love? Can a marriage between them bond two opposing worlds together, or will it tear them apart for good?

If you like the fantasy and politics of Danielle L. Jensen’s Malediction Trilogy and the romance of Elizabeth Vaughan’s Chronicles of the Warlands, NO MAN CAN TAME will lure you into its world and not let you go.

Pick up No Man Can Tame today, and journey into a medieval world of magic and Immortals, masquerades and games, love and blood, and a tale as old as time…
