Ling’s Ring calls to Persy and she, Thad, Benson and P-C rush into
an unauthorized trip to retrieve it, narrowly missing being killed by
guards, when P-C unleashes a power no one knew he possessed or could
use, even him.As
expected, Krak Ling hunts them down to take his ring back, but in the
negotiations, he reveals the next Magic Object which Melanthios is
about to attempt to capture…The Cauldron of Ceridwen. Why this
cauldron? The best person to explain that is Lady Druanna, the
resident authority on all things Celtic Magic.They
make their way to Killarney, an area in Ireland, where Lady Druanna’s
manor is located and there she tells them the tale of The Cauldron.
It’s not the vessel which is so important to all Magicals but the
first three drops of the Brew it creates. But their visit to Lady
Dru’s is violently interrupted, resulting in severe injury to the
Lady and the kidnapping of Thaddeus by the malevolent
Melanthios.

Now,
all these years later, I’ve started on my nine-book, three trilogy
magical series…The Persephane Pendrake Chronicles and have released
Books 1, 2 and 3… The Cimaruta, The Cauldron of Ceridwen and Lapis
Draconis.
The Persephane Pendrake Chronicles:
Book One – The Cimaruta
Dark Attack:
A crack of light, surrounded by black, billowing smoke filled the area in front of Persephane’s
window. Angelica jumped up, shoved Persy behind her, while folding Persy’s hand closed over
her Cimaruta.
In seconds, a female shape, all in black, formed.
“Melanthios!” yelled Angelica. “How dare you…” She scowled and started to raise her wand –
Snap! Blue light filled the room, Angelica fell on her side to the floor. Persy’s face crunched
with fury, she leapt over her Mom, holding the Cimaruta straight-armed at Melanthios.
Melanthios swung her wand to point at Persy and smirked. “Why, niece, how lovely to finally
meet you. I’ve been scouring the earth for that amulet. Should have figured my miscreant sister
had it.”
“Disarm,” screamed Persy, having drawn out her wand.
Melanthios easily swooped out of the way of the casting, coming back with, “Fixatious.”
Persy was not about to get frozen in place, so Melanthios could grab her Cimaruta. Not
happening. Not today.
Persy dropped to the floor, rolled away from Melanthios, but the casting caught her lower left
leg, which now dragged on the ground.
Melanthios’s mouth twitched up on the right as she moved in for the snatch.
She didn’t see the green and turquoise, foot long vortex form behind her head. As it rose, the
whirring became loud and louder. “Stopiare!” The maiming curse. Melanthios dropped like a
stone to the floor, her body faded to a ghostly hue and vanished.
Benson appeared out of the vortex, fluttered like leaf onto Persy’s lap.
“Benson,” she cried. “Benson. Are you ok?”
Slowly his large composite eyes refocused. “Oy. That took it out of me, Perse. But, yeah,
yeah. I think I’m good.”
Persy gently laid him on a cushion and went to her Mom, who was struggling to sit. “Mom?”
“Hey, my darling. I’m good. De-fogging,” Angelica gave a small smile.
Persephane reached for her Mom to give her hand a supportive squeeze, then the air
around her shimmered. “What…?”
It was as if she was watching the whole scene again. The flash of blue, Melanthios, her Mom
falling and Benson, but this time, Melanthios turned in time and cast the Death curse.
“Terminata!”
Benson’s vortex vanished. A candle snuffed out. He fell to the floor, motionless. Persy
screamed. She was back in her room, her time and Benson was fine on the pillow.
“What, Persy?” asked Angelica.
“I saw…I saw…I, I.”
Benson flew over, landing on her hand. “What, love?”
Persy’s eyes flicked down at Benson. “You were dead. She killed you.”

Persy’s eyes flicked down at Benson. “You were dead. She killed you.”

The cover looks nice and creepy.
And another Silver Dagger giveaway that switched up the mandatory after it started. I’m not a fan of that.
These covers aren’t my favorites. Although the colors on the first book are good, the disembodied head in the corner throws me off.
The cover is very intriguing.
Eye catching cover – makes me want to read this book.

I would so enjoy reading this book – great cover.
I am going to enjoy reading this book!

Dramatic cover – got me interested right away.
I like dinosaurs and these movies they are in so I am certain this book will not disappoint (and what is lurking in the woods!). I also like the picture – the red cape makes it pop and attracts to the title – good job. Thanks for sharing your writing talents – we readers appreciate your efforts!

I love the color on cover!
The cover looks great
I think the cover is great, the book looks interesting.
The cover looks almost as if it just needs to be refocused. I am certain that was deliberate, but it seems to miss its mark somewhat.
I find the cover a bit intense. She looks like she needs answers or help. I want to know what she needs and if she can find that help.
It looks interesting! I was wondering what type of music you listen to when you write.
The book cover looks really cool!
