Lin Jin never imagined he would ever transmigrate. And to such a peculiar world at that. Here, deadly beasts were regarded as sacred, and thankfully, he owned a museum for deadly beasts. “Master, this is just a dying little tortoise…” “What tortoise? This is a rare species that contains the blood of a Black Tortoise and could be promoted up to level seven.” “What about this shedding mongrel?” “Mongrel? How narrow-minded. This is a branch descendant of the snarling hound with a hint of Kirin’s blood. Take my word for it and sign the blood contract at once. I guarantee you that you'll soar to success and be on your path to invincibility!”

The problem is, Zed's information is unusually inadequate and Cassie is put into a situation that is far from what she expected. Faced with an elder vampire, he will give Cassie a second chance that will improve her outlook on life.

Elias can give Cassie a better future in a new world, safe from the darkness that is slowly encroaching the world around them but the past is always a step behind her ready to drag her back.

The Land of the Beasts

Category : Young Adult Fiction

Pages : 98
Book Description
Psykoria is on the brink of civil war. King Breetor sails out to eliminate the source of the unrest, but his ship is caught in a great storm. He is swept to an unknown land filled with legendary beasts. If he can’t find a way off this island, what will become of his homeland and his beloved Queen Aurandria? There is unrest among the nobility in Psykoria. Determined to end it, King Breetor sails out to eliminate the noble causing the most trouble. However, a ferocious storm drags him into uncharted seas. Stranded on an island filled with beasts of legend, Breetor must find a way home not just to escape this dangerous place, but return to his beloved. He fears for her safety, knowing that without its king, Psykoria would be in chaos. His ship has been destroyed. After the rest of his crew fall to the island’s predators, his only way home might be to find the land’s most dangerous beasts: the dragons. But it was a dragon which destroyed his vessel and his shipmates. If they don’t want outsiders coming to their land, would they help Breetor find a way home, or kill him like they did his crew? The Land of the Beasts is a brilliantly thought out and set up tale which any fans of dragons and creatures of legends will love. Get The Land of the Beasts now and explore the legendary island yourself. Interview with author Q: Tell us about the type of stories you write? A: I write YA epic fantasy or YA high fantasy novels and comics set in my Blade or Flame world. The world I’ve created is filled with magical creatures, a dragon rider, magic weaponry, and all sorts of things expected in a YA epic fantasy, all in a single young adult medieval world. The stories are often filled with dynamic action, ranging from sword combat, magic battles, and epic duels between magical creatures often written in more depth than a typical YA fantasy dragon story. However, I always try to ensure that each character has a good reason to be motivated with whatever they’re fighting for. Q: The Land of the Beasts contains a wide variety of magical creatures. Where did you get ideas for such a setting? At the core of the story, or most YA high fantasy and YA epic fantasy stories involving magical creatures for that matter, is the dragon. I always liked the idea of dragons coming from a land devoid of mass human population, only to be seen sparsely. As for the other magical creatures, such as griffins, hydras and manticores, I felt other creatures needed to dwell on this land, and realised such a place would make a great setting for a fable reminiscent of the tales of old. Q: Your Blade or Flame world is has been credited for including (in meaningful ways), almost every creature of legend in existence in some way or form. Why include so many magical creatures in a single YA high fantasy world? Don’t such fables and legends already come from a single world; ours? What if all legends and fables told in our history were true? What if every dragon rider, and all other magical creatures did exist? Wouldn’t that make our world similar to the one I’ve created? What better setting could there be for a youth fantasy or YA high fantasy? Q: Lastly, how does The Land of the Beasts differ from your YA epic fantasy tales? The Land of the Beasts is written to better resemble the type of fable you’d expect to hear in an old tavern or similar setting. It lacks the heavy character development seen in Champion’s Rising, or the ideological theme present in The Dragons’ Will. However, it features far more exploration, and better describes the magical creatures that exist in the youth fantasy world I’ve created, and adds a whole depth of background behind the dragons glimpsed in the aforementioned works. Perhaps more-so than the others, this reads like a fable of legend telling the journey of how a king became a legend.
