Synopsis of Reckoning Day:

Is there something worse than dying?

Though legendary mercenary Gorias La Gaul has toppled the king of Albion, knives are at his back as he serves as regent over the boy king of neighboring Transalpina. Gorias, who is content that the dire Queen of the Prytens has fallen along with the pervert Albion king, falls for a horse trainer from the displaced lands.

As this unlikely relationship grows, forces rise against him on either side of the channel. While selfish usurpers plot, a more stygian enemy lurks, using the wizards of each land. A figure who has wanted Gorias since his birth. Gorias must balance against these powers and preserve the life of the heir to the throne.

Other threats soon manifest as a wizardess prepares to unleash a dire act of revenge; and even a dragon made of water.

A tale of action, adventure, love, sacrifice, and war, Gorias staggers through a bloody trail that will tear his heart loose. Can Gorias combat these deadly forces and stand tall against an arch-demon on what will truly be his RECKONING DAY?

Synopsis of Nabaril: Immersion:

Archaeologist Megan Forest never thought that a routine jeep ride in the Arizona desert to look for petroglyphs would slip her into a time portal that land her a thousand years into the future.

Discovered by a Scholar who was also scouring the desert for information about the past, she finds she didn’t drop into an advanced society, she discovers she now lives in a feudal time where knowledge is limited to guilds run by men and women only have one of two functions in this time: procreation or pleasure.

In an attempt to protect the knowledge she holds, the Scholar offers her aid and a dangerous new role as Royal Consort. Megan Forest chaffs under the new constraints on not only her freedom but her mind as she becomes embroiled in royal intrigue.

Nabaril: Immersion is Book One in the Nabaril Series!

About the Author:

Janie Franz comes from a long line of liars and storytellers with roots deep in east Tennessee. After telling other people’s stories for two decades, Janie Franz wanted to tell her own, publishing twelve titles with MuseItUp Publishing, which closed its doors in 2021.

Franz signed with Per Bastet Publishing and Seventh Star Press, both publishers agreeing to take her back catalog and new work. Seventh Star Press took her fantasy books and offered a 4-book contract for her time warp Nabaril series, the first of which should be out around Christmas. Per Bastet took her archaeology thriller series and her contemporary novels. In December 2021, Per Bastet released Franz’ first murder mystery, Handful of Dirt, book one of her Allan Rodriguez Investigations series. Coming out after the new year, Per Bastet will release a new, cozy occult series about an 85-year-old Tennessee herb woman. Previously, Franz generated thousands of feature and cover articles over a wide range of topics for regional, national, and international publications.

She co-wrote two books with Texas wedding DJ, Bill Cox (The Ultimate Wedding Ceremony Book and The Ultimate Wedding Reception Book). She was once an avid reviewer of books, CDs, and live music events. In addition, she ran her own online music publication, Refrain Magazine, and was an agent/publicist for a groove/funk band, a radio announcer, a yoga/relaxation instructor, a music festival publicist, and a private chef.

Currently, Franz owns and runs River’s Edge Editorial services doing academic editing, business and educational writing/ghostwriting, B2B blogs, and grant writings. She’s a private contractor for the Morehouse School of Medicine.

She lives in Las Cruces NM. When not writing, you’ll find her on a dancefloor.

Synopsis of Pan and the Message Chair:

Old Raliv, isolated and angry, lives alone in a hunting cabin. When he discovers someone poaching rabbits on his land, he sets off to eliminate the intruder, but finds himself engaged in an unexpected epistolary exchange with an unusual visitor named Pan.

What will develop from this encounter? And just who is this Pan?

Pan and the Message Chair is very human commercial fiction as it recounts one man’s growth through grief and sorrow to hope with the help of a mysterious friend with whom he exchanges gifts and notes by placing them on a log chair in a meadow.

This is an organic southern story that will resonate and inspire in these trying and difficult times. It has strong character development and a compelling, moving plot. Pan and the Message Chair is a deep, thoughtful investigation into the meaning of life, love and love lost.

About the Author:

Lawrence has six books in print, four novels, one memoir, and one nonfiction. He has a contract for three more. He writes literary novels, short fiction, non-fiction articles and books, creative non-fiction, and poetry.

His work has appeared in a wide range of local, regional, and national journals. He also is a visual artist working in graphite, oils, metal and wood. Dr. Weill lives in the woods in Kentucky overlooking a beaver pond next to a wildlife preserve. He is also an avid outdoorsman and gardener.

Synopsis of Darkness Enthroned:

In the heart of a frigid northern winter, Rayden Valkyrie takes refuge in the lands of the Sarvan people when a mounted column of Attun warriors is seen passing along the outskirts of their territory heading west.

Far from their steppe domain in the east, the Attun warriors are journeying into a remote, unpopulated wilderness, drawing great alarm from the Sarvans about their purpose. Learning of the situation, Rayden joins with a band of warriors from the area’s villages to investigate.

Following the tracks of the Attun warriors, they are led to the base of an enormous, ancient burial mound, where the trail vanishes abruptly. A mystery looms, and Rayden seeks to discover the nature of the burial mound and the reason why the Attuns have traveled so far from their homelands to enter it.

Darkness Enthroned is a stand-alone adventure that is part of the Rayden Valkyrie Tales.

Tattered Men is the fourth and final installment in the City Quartet, a group of interrelated novels that can be read in any order. Readers of mythic fiction and magical realism will love this literary gem!

Synopsis of Tattered Men:

When a body washes ashore downstream from the city, the discovery saddens the small neighborhood south of Broadway.  A homeless man, T. Tommy Briscoe,  whose life had intertwined with a bookstore, a bar, and the city’s outdoor theater had touched many lives at an angle.  One was that of Mickey Walsh, a fly-by-night academic and historian, who becomes fascinated with the circumstances surrounding the drowning.

From the beginning there seems to be foul play regarding Briscoe’s death, and, goaded on by his own curiosity and the urging of two old friends, Walsh begins to examine the case when the police give it up.  His journey will take him into the long biography of a man who might have turned out otherwise and glorious, but instead fell into and through the underside of history, finding harsh magic and an even harsher world.  Despite the story of Tommy’s sad and shortened life, Walsh begins to discover curious patterns, ancient and mythic, in its events—patterns that lead him to secrets surrounding the life and death of Tommy Briscoe, and reveal his own mysteries in the searching.

About Michael Williams:

Over the past 25 years, Michael Williams has written a number of strange novels, from the early Weasel’s Luck and Galen Beknighted in the best-selling DRAGONLANCE series to the more recent lyrical and experimental Arcady, singled out for praise by Locus and Asimov’s magazines. In Trajan’s Arch, his eleventh novel, stories fold into stories and a boy grows up with ghostly mentors, and the recently published Vine mingles Greek tragedy and urban legend, as a local dramatic production in a small city goes humorously, then horrifically, awry.

Trajan’s Arch and Vine are two of the books in Williams’s highly anticipated City Quartet, to be joined in 2018 by Dominic’s Ghosts and Tattered Men.

Williams was born in Louisville, Kentucky, and spent much of his childhood in the south central part of the state, the red-dirt gothic home of Appalachian foothills and stories of Confederate guerrillas. Through good luck and a roundabout journey he made his way through through New England, New York, Wisconsin, Britain and Ireland, and has ended up less than thirty miles from where he began. He has a Ph.D. in Humanities, and teaches at the University of Louisville, where he focuses on the he Modern Fantastic in fiction and film. He is married, and has two grown sons.
