Book Description
It wasn't fair. Princes were supposed to go on adventures. Instead, Thony's older sisters had gone off on The Quest and Left Him Behind. In Aldyrwald, of all places. I mean, yeah, it was their home and Thony was Crown Prince and all, but seriously? Aldyrwald was the boringest, most insignificant place in the world. In any world. And Thony's efforts to “liven things up a little” are always so completely underappreciated. Things start looking up with the arrival of Amanita, a mysterious foreign girl who also likes to play pranks, but refuses to share anything about her past. Befriending her – and saving her from the consequences of her own hot temper – somehow lead to Thony getting treated as more than just a boy. But now his entirely unmysterious parents, Queen Annabel and King Bill, are acting like there's some Deep Dark Secret... ...and that it has something to do with Thony...

Book Description
Runaway Prince Thony and his friends face an army of zombies created and controlled by an Evil Wizard and a vengeful Dark-elf who threaten the sanctity of the Fairy Wood. They must use pranks to save not only their world, but all the worlds in the universe. ********** Back Blurb: Thony’s Quest just gets more and more messed up. Forget about finding a princess and going home to save Aldyrwald. Now he and Amanita (who’s turned out to also be a runaway princess) are stuck trying to save all the worlds that are connected by the Fairy Wood from an army of zombies controlled by an Evil Wizard and a vengeful Dark-elf. For allies they have the undersized mercenary Dae Goldeneyes, the unicorn Twinklestar, a pack of street-kids, and a handful of grown-ups who think they know what they’re doing (but who all got themselves captured right off). And their only real resource is… their own skill at playing pranks… This epic fantasy explores the mysterious connections between Magick and Economics, Empire and Ethics, Friendship and Family… and of course, PRANKS! Want to start at the beginning? Book One of the Prankster Prince: Thony and the Much-Anticipated Adventure is available in print and eBook at all fine online retailers! ******** Teaser: “EEEEeeeek!” Amanita hid quickly to avoid being seen by someone running by – then peeked out as a sergeant and captain in Raven-soldier colors came out of a door down the hall. “You realize you’ve roused the entire garrison, Captain Fayorn,” the sergeant growled. “I can’t imagine His Sorcerousness is going to be particularly forgiving that you disturbed their rest because of a mouse.” “A rat,” Captain Fayorn corrected with a shudder as they stopped in front of another door. “Or so I thought at first. It wasn’t real. Someone was trying to rattle me.” The sergeant grunted. “I don’t suppose you were able to apprehend the culprit?” Fayorn flushed. “I most certainly did.” The sergeant entered the room and emerged moments later with a ‘rat’ in each of his massive paws. Thony and Dae, held in place by the scruffs of their collars. Thony looked chagrined; Dae, indignant. “Children?” Sergeant Sterevor said in amusement. “Go back to bed, sir. I’ll take care of this little rodent problem.” Captain Fayorn glared back at him, then stalked past and went back in his room, slamming the door behind him. The sergeant chuckled, letting go of his captives, but turning them so they both had to face him. “So, you’re the scoundrels who disturbed Captain Fayorn’s beauty sleep.” “Yup!” Dae said proudly. Thony groaned. “Hunh.” Sergeant Sterevor shooed the pair of them back down the corridor. They passed within inches of the darkened doorway where Amanita stood frozen.

Book Description
Running away from home in order to save his kingdom was a Gallant sort of thing for a Crown Prince to do. A self-sacrificing sort of thing. Maybe even a brave sort of thing. Definitely Proper Princely Behavior. Right? And there should be some pretty awesome adventures as Thony looks for his princess (whom he’s too young to marry yet anyways, so there’s plenty of time before any gross stuff like that). And he’s starting out in the Fairy Wood which has all sorts of amazing and scary stories about it. Other people have all sorts of adventures in there. Unfortunately, Thony’s adventure also involves an annoyingly superior stable-girl (his best friend, **sigh**), a grumpy unicorn, and an all-too-easily-freaked-out horse…

Book Description
The wedding and coronation are over – just in time for King Damien to fight off a devastating ice-storm, pirate-raid, and evil sorceress who threaten to destroy his Realm. *** Back Blurb: The wedding and coronation are over. Queen Genevieve is well enough to attempt another pregnancy at last. It’s time to proceed with the secret plan to conceive an Heir to the Throne. But a devastating ice-storm is bearing down on the Ilseadoran capitol city of Emeralsee. King Damien suspects Evil Wizardry at work. With all the highest nobility of the Realm trapped in Emeralsee, Damien must battle Nature Itself to save his Realm and his people from an ice-storm that seems somehow targeted to him, personally. And that’s not even to mention the pirates converging on vulnerable, ice-locked Emeralsee… ****************** Teaser: “Thank you, Captain. “You and your men are to stand guard at the entrances to this hall. Do not enter until Sir Loveress lets you in. If that takes longer than a full day and night... inform Duke Elsevier that he is to support King Jason in all ways.” Sir Tim was shocked. “Damien... my King… you can’t be serious...” “You have your orders, Captain Ancellius,” Adam Loveress growled. “Yes, sir!” Sir Tim responded automatically to his former Captain. As the echo of the doors closing faded away, Adam turned to. “So, you think none of us are going to make it out of here alive?” “No,” Genevieve said firmly, “exactly the opposite.” “So, what am I here for then?” Adam demanded. “This...” the king held out a gem on a slender chain to Adam, “will end what life is left in my body that remains.” Adam, in the act of reaching for the proffered jewel, froze. “What?” Damien swallowed. “I need to access the Realm at a deeper level than I have since the very first time it Bound me. And it nearly consumed me then. Our people don’t need a breathing body of a king withering away without a soul. The jewel will stop my heart without leaving any external marks. No one will know what you did.” “And you just carry this thing around all the time just in case?” Adam muttered, staring at the now-ominous-looking faceted red stone.. Damien glanced back at him. “No. I altered that pendant on the way here from the Council chamber.” He put his arms around his silent wife. “I’m sorry,” he whispered to her, then turned to Adam. “This is why you have to be in here, Adam. There’s no one else I trust for this. But the part about you not coming out – that was just to scare Tim into moving. “Nothing should happen to you.”

Book Description
Back Blurb: She's earned her shield in a quarter the time it usually takes. She's slain the Evil Wizard Henig to save the Realm and extract vengeance for the murder of her parents. She's taken the reins of her far-flung merchant empire - including the Metreedis' Secret and Ancient Mission. And she's managed to navigate a solution to falling in love with both of her Knight-Companions. Karana is surely due a break... But Wind and Wave are no respecters of competence... or are they? Supposedly only those the Goddess really wants to see are allowed to come to the shores of Her Blessed Isle ******** Teaser: "You must ask the Goddess to heal him. That's a fatal wound, Karana. His skull is cracked and blood pools against his brain." "No!" Karana gasped, her strength quite wrung out. Kefen lay unmoving, his head in her lap, the huge purpling bruise standing out from his forehead. "To each their time must come. Perhaps it is simply his time." The words were almost harsh, but the tone somehow carried a compassion that was... beyond human. "No!" Karana cried again. "It can't be!" "And why not?" the strange, silvery woman asked, seeming merely curious. "Because - because-" Words failed the knightess, and she bent her head. "Because?" "Because I don't want him to die," Karana whispered. "We never want those we cherish to die," the silvery woman said calmly. "And yet they all do. Why not this one? Why not now? What is he to you that you would ask the Great Goddess to save him?" Karana shook with tears she could not shed. "He is my Bound Companion." What else could she say after all? It was Ivan's ring on her finger. All Karana had of Kefen was an unsigned contract under review by a coterie of lawyers. And kisses and... more... and a lifetime's worth of promises in eyes that were molten chocolate when they met hers...

Book Description
Karana and her fiancés are headed to her home-city of Wave on the Great Goddess’ orders, in order to be married… after they deal with pirates and a certain problem for Lord Andros of Wave – who just happens to be her foster-uncle. ********** Back Blurb: Wave – oldest and largest city on the Merutian Sea. Wave – renowned for its beauty and its markets. Wave – Karana’s home. For three long years, Karana has longed to go home. Now she – and Kefen and Ivan – are on their way. But home is never the same as when you left it… This epic fantasy concludes the Heir’s Journey and leads into the next Knightess of the Realm mini-series: The Secret of Dragon Mountain. Explore the mysterious connections between Magick and Economics, Empire and Ethics, Love… and Dragons! ******** Teaser: “Sais against a broadsword, laddie-buck?” Karana crouched down and made a come-hither gesture with her dagger. The young pirate grinned, showing white teeth in his bronzed face, continuing to spin his strange, short weapons around in a dazzling display. He wriggled his hips at her, saying something that made about half the pirates roar with laughter. They were men, all of them, Ivan noted, all but their chief, the woman with the bandana in her hair. Karana let her sword dangle carelessly from her fingers, and rested her dagger hand on her hip. “Is that t’best ye can do? Make pretty patterns in t’air? Or do ye use those things more often for something other than fighting?” The youth’s face turned red beneath his bronze, but he didn’t make a move. “Is he yers then, mistress? Which o’ ye gets to play wi’ his precious toys? Or are ye the type t’ share?” The knightess lowered her sword, and stood in a relaxed posture. She looked past the boy at the woman in the bandana – ah, Karana had marked her, too. Ivan began to wonder nervously if she was pushing this too far, and gathered himself to rush to her aid if they should swarm her. This last suggestion apparently needed no translation. The woman in the bandana looked amused, but the young pirate was scowling as his mates snickered. Karana laughed in the pirate lad’s face and said a few words in a soft and sibilant tongue... ...and the boy lost his temper and flew at her, his metal rods whirling.

Book Description
Before Karana won her shield… Before she spent a year alone in the forest… The Evil Wizard Henig destroyed Taridawil… …and the younger child of Duke Randall was sent – all unwilling – to Tallspire to become a page and earn his shield. Meet Kefen and Ivan as children… Discover the story behind how Ivan fought half their class… Watch how they figure out what friendship means… And learn what really happened to bond them so closely together in this touching tale of friendship, resilience, and caring. ****************** The Fall of Taridawil Story Collection includes: - Turns of a Page – how Kefen and Ivan met, how Ivan fought half their class (and why), and how they ended up becoming so close. - In A Masterful View, we peek into Master Felerico’s viewpoint on the boys - Of Pride & Princes takes a look at Henig’s original threat to King Theolore - We get into Queen Marlerite’s head in Sorrows of a Queen - And the collection finishes up with an ‘outside’ view of the whole situation from… Rufous in All on the Same Page ****************** Teaser: The small, dark-haired boy – no, ducal-prince, dammit, and that was how Kefen was going to keep his chin up – swallowed hard and began to turn back into the stall for a last measure of privacy before he had to go out there and show the world how a Saralath handled things. But a movement to his left caught his eye. Another boy was standing in the aisle of the stables, watching him silently. The boy was tall and golden-haired, with eyes that were almost too blue to be real. Eyes that were puzzled as he met Kefen’s own dark ones. After a moment of looking at each other, Kefen realized the other boy was dressed as he himself was. So. Another page. And tall as he was, something about the other child nevertheless suggested to Kefen that he was also new here. He waited, but the other boy said nothing. And when Kefen lifted an arm to rub his tears off on his sleeve and it broke their gaze, the other boy turned and began walking away. Curious, and drawn for reasons he couldn’t have explained, Kefen followed him.

Book Description
The Evil Wizard Henig is dead. The Province of Taridawil has been freed from his curse. Surely, now Karana can hang up her shield and return to her real job as Head of the most important merchant House in the world. There's just one or two small problems: The unpleasant Lord Jaycoff of Mountainmeadow has a contract requiring Karana to marry one of his sons – though not Sir Ivan, her erstwhile Knight-Companion. Karana still doesn't understand why Ivan abandoned them to face Henig without him. And every noblemaiden in the Realm is angling to marry her other Knight-Companion, Sir Kefen, now that he is to be crowned Duke of Taridawil. Nevermind that Kefen actually kissed Karana on the turret of Taridawil Keep right after the pair of them slew Henig, broke his spell, and freed the province. And... nevermind that Kefen has been making sheep's eyes at Ivan for as long as she's known them. And vice versa. What they need is to let everything settle down and become old news, so a simple little mission for the trio of Knight-Companions to escort the Princess Royal to the Holy Isle to seek the Great Goddess' Blessing on her future reign should be the perfect getaway... Right?

Book Description
We all worry about our kids learning math. Even if the kids are in school, there’s always a concern. Sometimes it’s about the kid’s concern… sometimes it’s about their teacher’s concern (parent-teacher or otherwise). But a lot of the time it’s about US. It’s about our own math-phobias – those ‘fears, dislikes, or aversions’ that we picked up from our own math experiences and that we inadvertently pass on to our kids. We don’t want them to be afraid of math – we know that limits their opportunities and makes their lives harder and costs them more money – but we just can’t help it. This book is here to help you deal with your own math-phobias and come to – if not outright enjoy math, to at least appreciate it and be able to convey it to your kids without passing on the fear. Kerridwen Mangala McNamara is NOT a ‘math-lover’ but she is a math-appreciator and has worked through most of these issues herself. Let her help you along your homeschooling journey and show you how to fight the Fear-of-Math monster so that it no longer intimidates you – or your kids!

Book Description
The Forest of Ryylyn is a place of legendary danger: bandits, wild animals… as well as magickal beings and possibly even Gates to other worlds. Sixteen-year-old Karana can vouch for at least the first three. She was on her way to a betrothal when her caravan was attacked by robbers and… things that certainly didn’t seem human. Her mother hid her in a secret compartment of their carriage, and miraculously she wasn’t found. But now she’s the only survivor and the King’s Road that they were traveling on seems to have vanished… Can Karana actually make her way out of the dreaded Forest and back to civilization… before she either starves or is found by other inimical creatures? Meet Karana before she became a squire in this prequel to A Not-So-Sacrificial Maiden: Book One of the Knightess of the Realm.
