A House Divided

by Trismegistus Shandy

This short novel (43,800 words) is in the same setting as my earlier novelette “Butterflies are the Gentlest.” They take place simultaneously, but there are no characters in common; I reckon you could read them in either order. I’m calling the setting itself “the Valentine Divergence”; if anyone else wants to write stories in this setting, feel free.

Quest for the Silver Cleric

"When the Empire was in flower, the Weres came to fight. The Sea-folk were threatened, and The Dead ruled the night. The situation hopeless, the battle was as good as lost. Then the Silver Cleric came to save us, no matter what the cost.”

And when the troubles returned, the Sea-folk reached across time and space to find a very special person, someone both male and female, to find to rid this strange world of darkness, oppression and misery.

Danica finds herself in a strange world with new languages, cultures, personalities and challenges on a quest to find The Silver Cleric.

Tears of the Princess

By Melodie Thomas

This is a sequel to “Princess of the Desert”. I do recommend reading the first story before starting this one, as much of the story will not make sense otherwise. Again, I would like to give my unending thanks to Holly for her editing and guidance. I do hope I am making her job a little easier as I gain more experience at this writing thing. I welcome your comments, thoughts and suggestions as that is the only way I will know what needs to be improved. As with the first story, I will maintain the “r21/a” rating. Though I will attempt to avoid many of the explicit descriptions, the story will be venturing into some of the darker corners of society, where dreams are many, but fairy tales are few.
