A grand old castle looks out across the North Sea, and the fishermen toiling on the deep catch the red flash from Ravenspur Point as their forefathers have done for many generations.The Ravenspurs and their great granite fortress have made history between them. Every quadrangle and watch-tower and turret has its legend of brave deeds and bloody deeds, of fights for the king and the glory of the flag. And for five hundred years there has been no Ravenspur who has not acquitted himself like a man. Theirs is a record to be proud of.Time has dealt lightly with the home of the Ravenspurs. It is probably the most perfect mediaeval castle in the country. The moat and the drawbridge are still intact; the portcullis might be worked by a child. And landwards the castle looks over a fair domain of broad acres where the orchards bloom and flourish and the red beeves wax fat in the pastures.A quiet family, a handsome family, a family passing rich in the world’s goods, they are strong and brave—a glorious chronicle behind them, and no carking cares ahead.Surely, then, the Ravenspurs should be happy and contented beyond most men. Excepting the beat of the wings of the Angel of Death, that comes to all sooner or later, surely no sorrow dwelt there that the hand of time could fail to soothe.And yet over them hung the shadow of a fear.No Ravenspur had ever slunk away from any danger, however great, so long as it was tangible; but there was something here that turned the stoutest heart to water, and caused strong men to start at their shadows.For five years now the curse had lain heavy on the house of Ravenspur...

It is said that brothers have a special bond; those raised together will forever know and understand each other like no one else, but brotherly love means nothing in the world of kings. As far as Dace Colletto is concerned, that brotherly bond between him and his older brother was all a lie. There are no words that can be spoken that can heal the wounds his brother has inflicted upon him. There are no acts of love that can provoke forgiveness for the pain his brother has caused him. Peace has not breathed around Dace since before his mother’s death. And now, now there is only one thing that can bring peace amongst Dace’s family. Now, he must destroy his brother, and put an end to his reign for good. There is no question what he must do, the only questions that remain for Dace are about the ones he loves. Can he triumph and still keep his youngest brother Antony from acting too impulsively and getting himself killed? Can Dace keep his true love, Austin, from falling into a trap and becoming another one of his brother’s victims? Can he bring an army together strong enough to battle his brother’s?
There is no question that there will be bloodshed. Someone will fall, and there is no doubt that an end will come to someone’s reign, but who will be wearing the crown at the end of this deadly game? Views: 503

She thought she has dealt with all the loss she could, but now must watch another friend die through the scope of her gun.Part two of the Reggie series. James Logan had been wrong. He had been wrong about Lizzie and what she had been through as the zombies ravaged the dead city of New York.

Lizzie, the raven haired, young, attractive cop, had thought she had learned how to deal with loss. Had thought she had learned how to deal with heartbreak. But now has to watch another true friend die through the scope of her rifle. Against the backdrop of General John Cygan's horrific revelation, only Russia stands as the hope of all mankind.

To Stella, it sort of evens out, and heck, the Klan hasn't bothered them for years. But one late night, later than she should ever be up, much less wandering around outside, Stella and her little brother see something they're never supposed to see, something that is the first flicker of change to come, unwelcome change by any stretch of the imagination. As Stella's community - her world - is upended, she decides to fight fire with fire. And she learns that ashes don't necessarily signify an end. Views: 503
