thrust into turmoil with the disappearance of his son, Asher, and daughter,
Imani. As Aaron’s marriage and life spiral out of control and the
police zero in on him as the prime suspect in his children’s

bring his children back and clear his name, Aaron decides to embark on an
improbable journey with the help of the divination’s tray original
owner, Urbi Houna, as his guide. Shadowland explores one man’s
attempts to overcome death and despair as well as pierce the veil between

The Three Brothers Trilogy, Book One

 

Three brothers…three destinies…three chances to fail.

One country hangs in the balance.

Peacetime in Etria is no time to become a knight. War lies in the past and
the future is for growing new things. Swords become plows and
 soldiers become farmers, artists, shop owners, and poets. Everyone knows
that training for a war that may never come is a waste of time, but
for 
the three grandsons of the greatest war hero in history, knighthood
isn’t a choice; it’s destiny.

The three inseparable boys set off on three very different roads to
knighthood. The eldest travels the straight path. The middle boy
follows 
the crooked way of the rebel. The youngest…he follows the trail of
legend.

When war returns all too soon, the boys will be tested. They will hold in
their hands the lives of the most powerful and important people of 
all of Etria. If they fail, their country may fall into darkness and
horror.

But these boys were born to be knights, to protect their king, land, and
people no matter the cost to themselves. In the end, they will give
 their all, but will it be enough?

EXCERPT

PROLOGUE

King Richard’s Coronation Day—Winter 610

Master Brixx follows the other guests out of the ballroom in Burmstone Palace, where the coronation celebration for King Richard had been moments before. Like many others in attendance, he knows something big just happened but isn’t quite sure what. He sees the back of his former student Julien Wolfensberger and is about to say something to him when a weird energy vibrates around the palace.

Mwuahahahaha!

Sinister laughter echoes in his mind. The laughter and the vibrations fade.

“Another portal!” he whispers to himself. Brixx runs through the crowd and hops into the first carriage he sees with a driver. “I need to go to Onaxx Academy now! As fast as possible, it’s an emergency!”

The three Wolfensberger brothers, Borus, Kassandros, and Julien, along with the rest of the coronation guests, are milling around in the courtyard, waiting for carriages or talking in small groups.

Borus sees Master Brixx rushing toward a carriage and looks at Kass, then Jules. “What just happened?” he asks. One moment they were thrust into a group of nobles celebrating King Richard’s coronation, and now their grandfather, the Wolf, General Burchard Wolfensberger, is throwing everyone out.

Jules takes a deep breath. “I was on that side of the room and heard a few words. I believe King Renard is dead.”

Eyes widening in shock, Kass is about to say something when the Wolf walks up to them with Princess Émeline in tow. “There you are. Come with me … I have rooms being prepared for Princess Émeline and then we can talk.”

The princess smiles gratefully at the Wolf and follows closely as he leads the four of them into Burmstone Palace.

Whimsical adventures of a young trickster: from clever exploits to a
god-given mission.

The stone marten, in pursuit of the sun, climbs to the very Heavens and
causes quite a commotion. Both the stubborn gods and the ordinary people
have a hard time when weredemons break free. Even the Lord of the Underworld
turns out to be powerless.

          But sometimes even a
mouse can be stronger than an elephant, as the old proverb says. The fate of
the world ends up in the hands of Takuan — a young trickster, who
deceives the greedy, angry, and ignorant people across the country of
Chinayindu. On his journey, he meets the wandering warrior Zhu Leizu, a
temple monk named Soliang, the clumsy sorcerer Bricabrac, and many
others.

          Our story begins
with a village boy setting off to a monastery to become a demon-hunting
monk, only to find out how truly dull monastic life can be.

          Or does our story
actually begin with the birth of the stone marten Ta Guan? To learn about
what happened in the Heavens, the incredible adventures of Takuan, and what
was the end of all of it, read the book ‘Takuan of Koto’ by Ryū
Zhong.
