Thunder o Dragon released today!

Image
To me, 2021 feels like a year in which international news is depressing and good news is very hard to come by. If you are going through a tough time, my thoughts are with you. That's one reason I chose to write the Call me Dragon series - a largely lighthearted, humorous fantasy which does address some topical issues, but with levity, I hope! Today I am delighted to announce the release of the third and final volume in the hilarious misadventures of a Dragon called Dragon, who had the good fortune to kidnap himself a black Princess. Of course, he had no idea what he was taking on ... Thunder o Dragon finds this mismatched pair taking on the might of the Skartunese war host together with an unlikely cast of friends.

It's time to ROAR with laughter! Thunder o Dragon is available in all Kindle Stores and o

Dragonsoul is coming ...

Back at it! I'll hopefully be posting up photos from my trip around northern Ethiopia on my blog soon. Today, I wrote the first words of Dragonsoul, part #3 of Dragonfriend. They are: "She's dying."

Between, there will be dragons, battles, soul-searching, adventure, Dragon lore, romance and a very special surprise for those of you who loved a certain character in Dragonfriend Book #1. Not to mention the wakening of a rogue Ancient Dragon mentioned in The Onyx Dragon, the genesis of the Dragon Rider tradition, a ride down a frozen nostril and an unlikely cavalier rescue. I hope to provide high entertainment, thrills aplenty, wild Dr

I'm pleased to announce the release today of Dragonsoul , the third volume in my bestselling Dragonfriend series, on Kindle and Kindle Unlimited. Here's the blurb:  Stricken. Dying. Laid low by the accursed Dragon Haters, Hualiama must confront the greatest powers of the age as Dramagon’s disciples encircle the ultimate prize–her. A girl born of fire, raised by Dragons and imbued with the terrible, corrupting power of ruzal.  Now, portents fill the sky. Legendary armies fly to war. The prophesied comet crashes into the Island-World, bearing the spirit of a malevolent Ancient Dragoness, Numistar Winterborn. She will obliterate any that seek to thwart her ambitions–all the armies of Men and Dragons, the monstrous war-machine of Shinzen, Warlord of the Giants, and most especially, Hualiama and Grandion, the Tourmaline Dragon. Epic powers collide in the worlds above and below the clouds. Can Hualiama forge a path, a new way, as the first Shapeshifter Dragon
