Hi All, Just wanted to give everyone a sample of my newest book: I “Nurse, what happened?” “I don’t know, Doctor. He just started convulsing. We were monitoring him after his skin became discolored, and then he flat-lined.” Corban McConnell felt his body slipping away and was powerless to stop it. He tried to scream, but Adramelech…

VIII Aralyn awoke as the sunlight poured through her window. She sat up and stretched as she opened her eyes. At first, her eyes were extremely blurry, but they began to clear as she rubbed them and blinked. An unfamiliar room appeared in front of her and she looked around in shock. Where was she, and more importantly, why did this room seem … Read More Destiny: Divinity’s Finale, Book 6, Chapter 8

VI Lailah’s wings were extremely sore almost to the point of paralysis. Even a slight flap to keep herself level was agonizing. She struggled to stay airborne, not wanting to crash into the water. In her thousands of years, she had never learned how to swim, and doubted even the best swimmer would fair well in harsh seas with another person as dead … Read More Destiny: Divinity’s Finale, Book 6, Chapter 6

V The battle outside of the city had begun to die down. With the help of Lucifer’s forces, the Choirs of angels managed to push the Imp armies into full retreat. As the angels dealt with the last remnants of the imp army, Xaphine, Ariel, Roselyn, and the demon Xaphine had met earlier joined Gilles and Morgan on the deck of the Black … Read More Destiny: Divinity’s Finale, Book 6, Chapter 5

IV Xaphine flew between the lines, narrowly avoiding getting hit by a fireball. The two armies were now completely meshed together in combat. The angels pushed against the imps, and managed to get them back away from the ship for a few moments, but the imps kept on coming. Gilles was forced to pull the Black Vengeance out of the fray to regroup … Read More Destiny: Divinity’s Finale, Book 6, Chapter 4

Book 6 Angel’s Tyre I Evening fell once more over the Black Vengeance. The lamp lights were lit on the fore and aft castles and torches were lit on the main deck. If for no other reason than to keep morale on the ship, Baltazar requested the pleasure of any crewmen not currently engaged in duty on deck for a small party. He … Read More Destiny: Divinity’s Finale, Book 6, Chapter 1

V “Captain, wake up!” A voice called. Baltazar quickly opened his eyes to see Gilles standing over him with a worried look. He rubbed his eyes as he spoke, “What is it?” “It’s Aralyn,” he replied, “we can hear her screaming from the cabin, but we can’t get to her! She’s barracaded herself in.” Baltazar shot to his feet and jumped off the … Read More Destiny: Divinity’s Finale, Book 5, Chapter 5

IV Two days passed as the Black Vengeance sailed due east. Much to the relief of the crew, there was no sign of any corsairs throughout their voyage into the region. Baltazar hadn’t spoken much to Aralyn since Xaphine left the ship. He really didn’t know what to say. On one hand, he had just pledged his love to this woman, which was … Read More Destiny: Divinity’s Finale, Book 5, Chapter 4

III There was a loud splash and suddenly the world came back into view. Their boat was only a few feet away from the entrance to the cave. Papi and Baltazar rowed the boat back out into open water. Where, to their misfortune, the galleass was waiting. The Le Terrible’s captain had apparently seen them go into the cave and hidden his ship … Read More Destiny: Divinity’s Finale, Book 5, Chapter 3

II Aralyn eventually regained consciousness as the boat drifted through the cave. At first, they looked in awe at the massive stalactites hanging down from the ceiling, carved over thousands of years. As they went deeper, the light from the entrance began to disappear. Baltazar lit two torches that he had brought with him and placed one on the stern of the boat … Read More Destiny: Divinity’s Finale, Book 5, Chapter 2

Book 5 The Churning Tides I The sound of activity on deck roused Baltazar from his slumber. He got up carefully so not to wake Aralyn. He opened the door and went out on deck. To his surprise, the crew was back onboard early and preparing the ship for the voyage ahead. Gilles turned to see a near shirtless Captain La Fuente walk out … Read More Destiny: Divinity’s Finale, Book 5, Chapter 1

V Aralyn took some time to get used to her new name and identity. She had been the naive little girl from France for so many years that the truth now was very daunting. Her newfound love was a major comfort to her as she sorted out her life and what she would do with it. Two days passed while the ship returned … Read More Destiny: Divinity’s Finale, Book 4, Chapter 5
