Witch’s Moonstone Locket by Marsha A. Moore

Posted By Fantasy Books Curator Leave a Comment

A local witch might have the griever’s moonstone locket, which allows the wearer to talk with the dead. Determined to find that locket, Jancie goes to the coven’s annual carnival. This opposes her father’s strict rule—STAY AWAY FROM WITCHES!

Twenty-three-year-old Jancie Sadler was out of the room when her mother died, and her heart still longs for their lost goodbye. Aching to ease her sorrow, Aunt Starla gives Jancie a diary that changes her entire life. In entries from the 1930s, her great grandmother revealed how she coped with her own painful loss by seeking out a witch from nearby Coon Hollow Coven. The witch wore the griever’s moonstone locket, which allowed whoever could unlock its enchantment to talk with the dead.

Determined to find that locket, Jancie goes to the coven’s annual carnival held in her small southern Indiana town of Bentbone. This opposes her father’s strict rule: stay away from witches. But she’s an adult now and can make her own decisions. She meets Rowe McCoy, the kind and handsome witch who wears the moonstone. He agrees to let her try to open the locket, but they’re opposed by High Priestess Adara and her jealous desire to possess him. Desperate for closure with her mother, Jancie persists and cannot turn away from a perilous path filled with magic, romance, and danger.

Witch’s Moonstone Locket is a stand-alone book in the Coon Hollow Coven Tales series. If you enjoy mystic adventures and have ever wanted to speak to the dead, then you’ll love Marsha A. Moore’s quest for the elusive gemstone.

My series, Coon Hollow Coven Tales, is set in my version of a real place near where I lived in southern Indiana as a child. With its rolling forested ravines and artist residences tucked away in sleepy, rustic log and limestone cabins, the place captured my imagination and never let go.

The place is Nashville, Indiana, which lies south of Bloomington. In fact, all of Brown County and its rolling hills inspires this series.

The books in my Coon Hollow Coven Tales series are rich with a warm Hoosier down-home feel as well as mysterious magic that lurks in the ravines of those deep woods.

I’ve always loved bards, and I wanted to write something that’s not from the perspective of a chosen one or a hero, but a normal person trying to get by. I love a singer called Malukah, she was the main inspiration for this story.

Born of Water by Autumn M. Birt

Posted By Fantasy Books Curator Leave a Comment

Some magic is best not to be born with.

In a world controlled by magic, not everyone wants the “honor” of being an Elemental Priestess and becoming a slave to the Church of Four Orders. But when Ria calls upon magic to save her best friend’s life, she discovers there is something worse than being able to control water, air, fire, or earth.

There is another power, one that is forbidden, and its use is punishable by death.

Ria must flee everything she has known to outrun a creature sent to capture those who use tainted magic. Her best chance of success comes in the protection of an outcast Water Priestess who might choose to betray her as much as help.

In a desperate race to save her life, Ria must discover just what is the magic she controls and why the Church of Four Orders wants anyone born with it killed before they capture her.

I started writing in 2017 and started with epic fantasy. It was a hobby driven by a desire to share stories in the genres I grew up with. Then sometime in the middle of 2018, I decided to try writing a fantasy tale for children. Just in time for Christmas. There will be other books narrating Frieda's adventures. Once I find the time to write them.

The Council (The Witch’s Ambitions Trilogy #1) by Kayla Krantz

Posted By Fantasy Books Curator Leave a Comment

The Council is the governing Coven over the Land of Five, a region entirely inhabited—and split apart—by witches with varying powers.

Lilith Lace, a witch thought to be born powerless, happily resides in Ignis, the Coven of Fire, until she suddenly develops telekinesis, an ability only seen in some witches born in Mentis, the Coven of the Mind. She’s terrified of it, unsure who she can trust. Her best friends, Helena and Clio, are hot and cold about what she can do, leaving Lilith even more unsure about her future.

At her Arcane Ceremony, the truth comes out.

When the Council learns what she can do, she’s taken under their wing and is finally told the truth—everything she’s learned about the Land of Five, herself included, have been nothing but lies.

When I got the idea for this book, it was the first time that I branched out from my genre. By nature, I am a psychological horror/thriller author. I debuted in that genre, and love it to pieces. The idea for the Council was created when I decided I wanted to try my hand at writing a fantasy book. I started out thinking of a world of witches and fairies and details grew from there.

Only Father God knows how to bring this young woman back to himself.

What Inspired You to Write Your Book?
My Inspiration to write this book came from several factors. Firstly, I love to read Time Travel stories, yet some don’t seem to get the vanishing back through time part correctly.
As a retired specialist nurse and aware of the unconscious patients’ ability to hear and know while in a comatose state, I drew on this understanding for traveling back through time. Having my seventeen-year-old granddaughter living with me
and sighting the rebellion in her plus praying for her safety, also contributed to the story.
When writing, I use my formed education of nursing, mental health, emergency medicine, psychology, and Bible College to draw an exciting picture of events.

I've loved both Urban Fantasy and Romance for so long, that I wanted to combine the two into one series. Hunted and the Fae Magic series do just that. For me it was like taking Jim Butcher, swirling in a bit of Tolkein, and then adding Romance!

Elemental Rising by Toni Cox

Posted By Fantasy Books Curator Leave a Comment

Dragons, Elves, and Magic. What more could you want from a fantasy trilogy?

Maia, Elf Princess of Grildor, has trained her entire life to be the Elemental of her people. Yet, when she returns home to Elveron after her final test, disaster strikes. She has brought with her the very thing she tried to leave behind.

Faced with responsibilities she thinks she is not ready for, a love she does not reciprocate, and a threat to her people that might kill them all, she is suddenly forced to become what she is meant to be – a Prime.

An army more terrible than the nation of Grildor ever had to face is suddenly at the Gate and Maia, with the help of her dragon, Midnight, must face the challenges of saving her people.
The appearance of Death, however, might derail all their plans. Will the bad omen mean the end of them all, or can Maia overcome that which holds her back from true power?

“Cox has created characters; a world; a story that is Tolkien worthy. She has developed something unique and rich in imagination.” Sian B. Claven (Author of The Butcher books)

“Maia is an incredible character to follow. Toni Cox has managed to bring something new, exciting, and seriously addictive to the fore.” Robyn Victoria Castles (TBB)
