It's Launch Day!
Diamonds and Dust
by River Fairchild
Book 1 of the Jewels of Chandra series
Magic is real. So is
betrayal.
Two heirs. A Kingdom of
dust on a troubled world. One might resurrect it. One might destroy it all.
Archaeologist David
Alexander investigates the cave where his father disappeared and hurtles into
another world, one filled with magic and bizarre creatures. The mad ravings in
his father's journals of icemen and dragons may not be fantasies after all.
Convinced his father may
still be alive, David begins a treacherous journey to find him and discover a
way home. Along the way, he encounters a few unlikely friends. A Dreean
warrior, a beautiful thief and a satyr join him as he searches.
David's arrival into
this new world sets off an explosive chain reaction of events. Faced with
powerful adversaries and few clues, he may not get the chance to rescue his
father before disaster strikes, condemning both of them to death. Or worse.

About the author:
River Fairchild is somewhat odd, brandishes a dry
sense of humor, owned by several cats. Lives in a fantasy world. A fabricator
of magic. Makes stuff up and spins tales about it. Believes in Faerie crossings
and never staying in one place for very long. Speculative Fiction wordsmith.
The secret to her stories? Spread lies, blend in truths, add a pinch of snark
and a dash of tears. Escape into her world. She left the porch light on so you
can find your way down the rabbit hole.
Woo Hoo. And congratulations.
ReplyDeleteMagic has to be real - or I would never survive the betrayals (which sadly no-one would dispute). And a world without dragons, and unicorns, and manticores is not one I care to live in.
You're right, EC! Magic is quite real. Jezebel is living proof of that. ;)
DeleteI need to go take my dragon out now for his morning flight...
