One last chance to control her magic…or she’s banished to a world without it.

At the ripe old age of eighteen, Calendula Dobkins should be able to cast simple enchantments as easy as breathing. But most days, Callie and magic aren’t exactly on speaking terms. Not that she doesn’t have it. More like…she has control issues.

Her parents pack her off to Miss Primm’s Academy for Wayward Witches, where she has only three years to whip her unruly magic into shape. Or DOME (the Department of Magical Exile) will banish her to Mundania. A world without magic. 

Callie quickly learns which girls have her back, and who will throw her under the bus. Pop quizzes can be killer. The Beginning Spells professor seems have it in for her. And…just who is the mysterious Miss Primm, anyway?

Then there’s the six feet of Scottish gorgeousness she meets at the joint school dance with Master Marco’s School for Woeful Wizards, Lochlan Abernathy. If Callie can survive finals with a ticket to year two, maybe they can do more than just dream about the future….

Ever wish for a different life?

I do. Every damn day.

Continually hunted by paranormal assassins out to claim the bounty on my head—dead or alive—I’ve been hidden away and taught to fight by my mentors, never allowed to live a normal life or even make friends.

I’m being forced to live in the shadows, always fearful of the next attack.

I’m supposed to have a magic so powerful it makes me a danger to the whole world. But my only powers include a very ordinary ability to manipulate water, and a very human ability to fight like a ninja. Some days I wish I did have the powers they claim I do, just so I could make them stop.

The truth is that I’m not the last dragon shifter, and my roar isn’t loud enough to destroy the whole world.

So why are they still hunting me?

If you like Patricia Briggs’s Mercy Thompson or Shannon Mayer’s Rylee Adamson… you’ll love Trudi Jaye’s kick-butt shapeshifter, Mei Walker.

Scroll back to the top and click “Buy Now”, to enjoy a fun, action-packed adventure in the supernatural realms with a strong and sassy heroine you’ll fall in love with.

What do you get when you mix a novice wizard, a reckless warrior, a sharp-tongued thief, & a saintly cleric? Swords, sorcery, & sarcasm.

Glolindir thought he knew all about magic until he came face to face with his very first monster. He only survived thanks to his new friends: a gallant warrior as talented as he is reckless, a mysterious halfling whose knives are nearly as sharp as his tongue, and a saintly gnome whose very touch can heal.

Unfortunately, that was just the beginning of their troubles. Strange things have been happening around the little town of Ravenford. Before they know it, they are up to their necks in monsters and worse.

From eerie ruins to underground caves to a ghostly forest devoid of life, they encounter the forces of darkness. Can they overcome their faults and work together to save the town, or will they die trying?

Enter a world of magic and adventure in this fun tale of heroes in the making. Perfect for fans of Lord of the Rings and Dungeons & Dragons.

“The characters are exceptionally well developed and the battle scenes are entertaining and polished. What I loved most is that this is a series I can read with my young niece, who loves tales in the spirit of Dungeons and Dragons and The Lord of the Rings.” – Readers’ Favorite Book Review ★★★★★

“Like Lord of the Rings, there’s plenty of action scenes and humorous dialogue. If you love classic fantasy with a great cast of characters, you’ve got to read this book.”- N. N.Light’s Book Heaven ★★★★★

“Sword and Sorcery doesn’t get any better than this.” – Amazon Reviewer ★★★★★

Featured Fantasy: Kidnapping Phoenix and Other Ways to Die – the Complete Box Set by Ramy Vance

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

Eight books and over 1400+ pages of magic and mayhem, action and humor fill this snarky urban fantasy boxed set.

Mythical creatures are real and the world is only now finding out.

All Frances wants is a simple, safe life.

Kidnapping the Phoenix was probably a bad move.

My name is Frances Church. Not the name you’d expect from someone on the run from the paranormal mob.

You know, ogres with machine guns, kind of mob.

But when the unborn ashes of the Phoenix ask for help, well, what’s a girl gonna do? I stole her urn from the mob and went on the run.

Now I’m hiding in small town Indiana, where I work as a medic for fantasical beasts. I should be safe here, right?

But the mob aren’t the only ones looking for the Phoenix.

An ancient evil is searching for her in hopes to usher in Armageddon.

Now I have a choice to make: abandon the Phoenix and run, or stop these supernatural bullies and beasts from harnessing the Phoenix’s magic for evil.

Like I said, what’s a girl gonna do?

Meet Frances, the latest hero in the GoneGod World. Frances a paranormal medic, treating the mythical creatures who now walk among us. If you love Mercy Thompson, Buffy or Katrina Darling, then you’ll absolutely love this unexpected heroine.
