Book one begins the fantasy epic, where a race of powerful magic users, living upon the planet Ercutis, promised to only use their magic for the good of their people and not interfere with the lives of others upon the earth or other planets.
The left the ways of their elders, and began to meddle with the earthling, creating havoc among them. Because they left the ways of their elders, they cursed themselves, and their lands began dying. The race faces imminent annihilation.
A wizard, wizardess, sorcerer, sorceress combine their magic forces to become "The Great One - Thire-los."

Excerpt:
Day of the Dodekatheon
Lotus saw the bruise upon Os’ handsome dark face. She wanted to cringe but held back so as not to shame him. Os was always so proud. “Os, my love, what has happened to you in that dreadful place?” Lotus asked.
“That is not important. I am back now, so that you can get better.” Os still felt humiliation from his defeat, but he saw in Lotus’ eyes that she still saw him as a mighty Ercutian warrior. The aura of her love still consumed him, and to be in her presence gave him all the strength he needed.
“I have missed you dearly, Os’, Lotus said weakly. Frailly she reached up and touched the swollen scar upon his face. It began to heal.
Os felt the pain in his face and body began to subside. He kissed her gently on the lips and she smiled at him. “I have missed you too, my lovely goddess.”
Lotus’ healing touch cleansed away the injuries in his human body, but she could not return his magic. Thie had not spoken to Os since his arrival back home. Moreover, he had not restored his magical powers. Ireania had lied.
Thie was old and frail and weak, and though he once desired to kill him, doing it like this would give him no pleasure when such devastation hung over Talxenau like a cloud of death.
He had not returned home to die. He searched diligently to find what forces threatened their life, but like the others, Os was unsuccessful. There was only one option: they needed to bring back Thire-los.
They had to undo the wrong that Thire-los created. So Ireania, Os, and Lotus brought their argument to Thie.
Sickly, and weak, Thie fought them no longer. He agreed to Ireania’s plan to make creatures which would carry on the Ercutian legacy.
However, he refused to bring back Thire-los.

What's your favorite thing about the Fall season:
I really enjoy writing at all times, but during the fall while strolling through my gardens, I feel peace in the lovely colors; yellows, oranges, and greens. These are my favorite colors.
In these relaxing times, my thoughts wander about all of God's beauty around me and illicit ideas of happiness and peace with the world, which I try to reflect in my writing.
What inspired you to write this story:
That is simple, I believe the young are very important to our futures. Having such brilliant minds, one-day, their decisions will impact the world around me. In my opinion, love, peace, and happiness with oneself are essential principles. In these times of so much destruction, hostility, and immorality being the focal point of most of our media, our kids need to also be given opportunities to see the good and not just wrong.

Book 2- United We Stand -Available December 2020
Gold Cavern Available In November 2020 Born in Florida, I am a resident of the US, but now I reside on a lovely island in British Columbia, Canada. During the early years of my life, I worked in the business industry, thus reaching my goal of obtaining my degree in Business Management. I love to read, and over my lifetime, I have probably read hundreds of books. Now that life has given a bit more time to concentrate on my personal life, I am following God and writing fun, fanciful fiction stories, which blend over into the fantasy realm. My first amazing middle-grade fantasy series is now out, "The Four." There are very little violence and no wars. This is my attempt to provide lovely whimsical readings to the young to stimulate their imaginations.
God is the mentor of my life, and to Him I give thanks for all things.
