Resthaven

Magic is feared.
The truth is forgotten.
But the silence – it still remembers.

Resthaven
The Chronicles of the Troop Book 1
by Colin Darney
Genre: Epic Fantasy

A divine war once shattered the world. Now, it begins
anew—unnoticed, and bathed in blood.
Tommy is the son of a fisherman in a quiet lakeside village, where nothing
truly dangerous has happened in generations. But when monstrous warriors
descend from the woods, slaughtering everything he’s ever known, Tommy is
thrown into a world of violence, prophecy, and secrets his father spent a
lifetime hiding.
Fleeing across the inland sea, the survivors carry more than trauma—some carry
buried power. Among them, an elven woman with a hidden past, a dwarf whose
grief burns hotter than his forge, and a boy who isn’t just a boy – he’s
something more. As rumors of more attacks spread and refugees flock to safe
havens, it becomes clear the ondilaan are not just raiding.
They’re hunting.
But why?
As Tommy struggles to survive, love, and grow into the man the world might
need, forces far older than any kingdom turn their gaze toward him. And the
hidden power is watching.
Resthaven is the first entry in
The Chronicles of the Troop, an epic fantasy saga that blends brutal war,
divine judgment, and philosophical weight with real human stakes.
A note to readers: Violence through fantasy combat, Minor swearing, Adult
themes, No sex.

Silverlake
The Chronicles of the Troop Book 2

The troop survived Resthaven. But survival was just the
beginning.
Donnor leads his ragtag force of villagers, conscripts, and outsiders deeper
into the southern reaches of the Serensea. Their mission: find and defend the
last remaining settlements from the ondilaan. But the enemy has changed—and so
has the troop.
As Tommy comes into his own as both a mage and a chronicler, he wrestles with
the burden of power, the scars of war, and the discovery of a lineage that
shakes his identity. Beside him, Arisaylia’s magic deepens beyond her control,
while Donnor is haunted by a loss he cannot afford to repeat.
In the villages, foothills, and the ruined fields of the south, the troop finds
not only battles—but betrayals, hard choices, and the truths that threaten
everything they thought they understood.
Silverlake is the second book
in The Chronicles of the Troop, a philosophical epic fantasy saga blending
tactical war, elven lore, deep character bonds, and the high stakes of ancient
memory … for readers who crave stories where victory costs something real.
A note to readers: Violence through fantasy combat, minor swearing, adult
themes.

Windyspring
The Chronicles of the Troop Book 3

The enemy grows bolder. Allies grow silent. And the gods
remain lost.
The troop is scattered, wounded, and shaken by betrayal from within and
without. What began as a mission to protect the southern villages of the
Serensea now threatens to unravel the fragile balance between kingdoms, clans,
and divine history.
As Tommy’s power blooms into something ancient—and dangerous—Arisaylia
confronts truths about the elves that could fracture her people forever.
Donnor, haunted by war and his family’s fate, must hold together what remains
of their fragile alliance before the flames of conflict spread beyond control.
Meanwhile, far from the troop’s journey, in the Endless Plains power stirs.
Civilizations long dormant move once more, as kingdoms make secret pacts and
old races return to claim what was once theirs.
Windyspring is the third volume
of The Chronicles of the Troop, a sweeping epic of war, memory, and magic—where
loyalty is tested, identities unravel, and the true cost of power begins to
reveal itself.
A note to readers: Violence through fantasy combat, minor swearing, adult
themes.

Harper’s Creek
The Chronicles of the Troop Book 4

The dead have been buried. Silence is broken. And secrets
refuse to stay where they lay.
As the troop pushes east toward Harper’s Creek, the weight of their survival in
Windyspring lingers—along with a growing fear of what lies ahead. Tommy’s power
evolves beyond even the elves’ understanding, and Arisaylia begins to question
whether the path she and her son will walk was ever theirs to choose.
Back in Redtail Hold, Sella finds herself drawn into a role far greater—and
more dangerous—than her songs alone. Her rising influence in the eyes of the
elves threatens the balance of the Hold, and the line between duty and desire
grows thinner and thinner.
But war isn’t fought only with weapons. As old alliances fray and ancient eyes
turn towards the Serensea, both soldier and singer must decide who and what
they are—before the tide of history swallows them before their new fate is
born.
Harper’s Creek is Book Four of
The Chronicles of the Troop, where fantasy meets philosophy, and where battles
of the heart are as perilous to everyone involved as those of sword and hidden
sorcery.
A note to readers: Fantasy combat, minor swearing, adult themes.


In a world where gods are silent and magic is
feared, Colin Darney writes stories
about people who still fight forward. A veteran, trauma nurse, and lifelong
student of human resilience, Colin’s fantasy series—The Chronicles of the
Troop and the follow-up The Book of Ghaan—explore what it means to
survive, to love, and to hold on to hope when the world says you shouldn’t.
Known for
gritty realism, emotionally layered characters, and the kind of dialogue you’d
actually hear in a bar full of off-duty soldiers, Colin blends classic epic
fantasy with raw, lived experience. His readers often say the world feels real,
the characters feel familiar—and that once they start reading, they can’t put
it down.
The Book of Ghaan, Part Two is currently in editing, with release planned for
summer 2025.

Three Dogs, Two Murders, and a Cat – Spotlight & Giveaway

Nicolette Briggs doesn’t do humans.

Three Dogs, Two
Murders, and a Cat
Nicolette Briggs Mystery Book 1
by Rodney Strong
Genre: Cozy Mystery

Nicolette Briggs
doesn’t do humans.
As Wellington’s premier, and possibly only, animal detective, Nicolette mostly
investigates missing pets and cases of animal cruelty. So when her latest
client asks her to investigate a case of a poisoned cat, it seems right up her
alley. Until a body shows up, then another, and suddenly despite her resolve to
not get involved, Nicolette is right in the middle two murder investigations.
Or is it just one killer?
When someone breaks into her house and one of her dogs is injured, Nicolette’s
reluctance turns to determination to not only solve this thing before the
police, but show up her stubborn police detective brother in the process.
Along the way she has to navigate a daughter about to turn 15, a dwindling bank
account, and a dysfunctional family that seems determined to fix her. Not to
mention a killer who’s turned their sights her way.
No wonder she doesn’t do humans.
Three Dogs, Two Murders, and a Cat is the first book in the clean, cozy mystery
series. Gilmore Girls meets Nancy Drew, with a touch of dysfunctional families,
a touch of humour, and a touch of caring.


Rodney Strong quit a 9-5 job in 2016 to finally pursue his
life long dream of becoming a writer (he still has the very first play he wrote
at age 6). He lives in Porirua, New Zealand, with his wife, two children, and
two cats. When he’s not writing he attempts to stay away from chocolate, runs
(sometimes), reads, and enjoys spending time with his young children (who
contribute a lot to the running and craving for chocolate).
He always has a couple of projects on the go, but for now is
focusing on his series of cozy mysteries.
One of his cats likes to help with the process by sitting on
the laptop, while the other likes nesting on his shoulders (which was cute when
he was a kitten, but now the cat is 11 years old, is less so).

Failing Gravity – Spotlight & Giveaway

A story of friendship and forgiveness in a world that knows
neither.

Failing Gravity
by Jordan S. Keller
Genre: Dystopian Cyberpunk Science Fiction

Roman Koa knows that
to survive, he must be ruthless.
The Slums beneath the floating city of Icaria were never
meant to thrive—but they did. A gritty junkyard city of thieves and robot
fighters, it’s everything Icaria isn’t. Roman has grown greedy after clawing
his way to the top of the robot fighting hierarchy with his powerful
electromagnet robot, taking from anyone who crosses his path. When Icarians
come to the Slums for a night of risky entertainment, Roman takes twice as
much.
But when he’s offered the chance to steal advanced tech from
Icaria, the job is too tempting to resist—even with Oliver Flint offering it,
his former best friend who sold their robotics code for a new life in Icaria.
Without Roman.
The job is simple: Roman helps Oliver save Icaria’s failing
gravity beams, and Roman gains access to technology to build powerful robots to
secure his position as King of Ring and King of the Slums. Roman’s hatred for
Icaria is hard to ignore, though and he is tempted to let the city Oliver
betrayed him for crash back to Earth, but dooming Icaria means dooming
everyone.
As Icaria’s gravity—and Roman’s fragile bond with
Oliver—fails, Roman must choose: will he let Icaria crash, or is there a chance
for forgiveness, for both his friend and the city?
Failing Gravity is a high-octane, cyberpunk-inspired
adventure about friendship, betrayal, and the fight for forgiveness.

Protopia – Spotlight & Giveaway
Protopia

A dystopian thriller set in the
very near future.
Which side are YOU on?

Protopia
by John Calia
Genre: YA Dystopian Thriller

In a world ravaged by ideological war, can two lifelong friends, torn apart, find
their way back to each other, or will conflicting visions of a perfect society
destroy their
relationship or, worse yet, prove
fatal?
Olivia and Alexandra, inseparable since
childhood, stumble into the brutal conflict between Cygnus, a bastion of
ultra-libertarian ideals, and Elyria, a socialist commune that promises
equality and justice. As tensions escalate, the women are forced to make a
choice: which community to join.
Olivia, haunted by anxiety and self-doubt, is
drawn to the promise of security and equality in Elyria. Alexandra, ever the
adventurer, chooses the independence and freedom of Cygnus. As they settle into
their respective communities, Olivia and Alexandra encounter rigid ideologies
and corruption at the highest levels of government. They challenge the leaders
of their respective communities and realize their lives are under threat.
Olivia must confront her own demons and the
limitations they’ve imposed on her life. Growing in confidence and
self-awareness, she starts to envision a different future—one that balances
individual freedom with collective well-being. As the conflict between Cygnus
and Elyria reaches a boiling point, Olivia and Alexandra must navigate the
treacherous landscape of their own divided loyalties. Can they turn the
obstacles into opportunities, or will the divide between them prove
insurmountable—even deadly?
Protopia
is a heart-pumping, thought-provoking tale of politics, adventure, and loyalty
set in a dystopian world that eerily echoes our own.
Fans of Emily St. John Mandel and Matt Haig
will love this new adventure from the author of Parallel Lies and the
best-seller The Awakening of Artemis.


John Calia is a multifaceted
author, born in Brooklyn and formerly a naval officer, banker, entrepreneur,
and consultant. His debut business fable, The Reluctant CEO: Succeeding Without
Losing Your Soul, earned a five-star rating and sparked a passion for writing.
Calia’s fascination with artificial intelligence and its societal implications
led him to craft The Awakening of Artemis, a near-future speculative fiction
novel that soared to #6 on the Amazon Science Fiction Adventure bestseller
list. His latest release, Parallel Lies (2023), is the highly anticipated
sequel to his bestseller.

When Samson Collier and three sixth-grade friends witness
the bombardment of Ft. Sumter offshore from their homes, they decide that the
Yankee soldiers at the fort must have been forewarned about the attack-since no
one was killed although the structure appeared to be wrecked. They set off to
find the spy who told secrets.
During their escapades, they confront slavery (one of the
four is the son of a freedman), nativism (another of them is the daughter of a
prominent Catholic family), zealotry (a man forming a brigade to fight the
North appropriates Sam’s beloved horse) and evil (they are attacked by a
highwayman in The Devil’s Hole). Eventually, the children discover a shocking
plan to undermine their homeland.
The book is an historically accurate and action-packed
adventure/mystery.
