CURSE ON THE LAND is the second installment in the Soulwood Series and is set in the same world as Faith Hunter’s Jane Yellowrock novels. It continues the addicting story of Nell Ingram’s connection to the earth and her rising powers. This is an exciting and original urban-fantasy series filled with magic, science, cool gadgets, and plenty of paranormal going-ons.

Blood of the Earth by Faith Hunter is the first in an exciting new paranormal series set in the same world as the Jane Yellowrock novels featuring a new heroine, Nell Ingram, who wields dark and powerful magic as old as the earth and finds herself working for the covert operations unit PsyLED, policing paranormals in Tennessee.

As any reader knows, it is hard to resist a story that features a secret library.  Even harder to resist is one with multiple alternate realities that hold endless possibilities for exploring. What drew me to this story is not only that intriguing library and alternate worlds but the fact that each library contains different tomes of dangerous lore that needed to be hunted down.  Libraries, adventure, and a mashup of genres - count me in!

The Shattered Court by M.J. Scott is the first book in the Novel of Four Arts series. Readers can expect royal intrigue and the beginnings of an interesting fantasy with a healthy dose of romance to heat up the pages alongside the magical workings. 

Royal Intrigue, Forbidden Magic and Romance

The story opens up with Lady Sophia Kendall getting ready for the celebration of her Ais-Seann. The Anglion royal witches on their 21st birthday take part in a celebration held at court where any magic they may possess is bound to their Goddess and arrange matches are made between them and nobleman of the courts choosing.
