Cover Reveal: Skalsinger

I am beyond thrilled to be able to reveal the cover of my second fantasy novel, Skalsinger (Chronicles of Algarth #2), designed by the very talented KATYA DIBB.

But first, what’s the story?

A young widow with a musical gift that is truly magical.

A desperate search for her husband’s missing twin.

A conflict that will threaten her homeland and her soul.

As a Skalsinger, Cahira Gelt delighted audiences with her multi-voiced performances. But she no longer has any reason to sing. Grieving the violent death of her husband, Bram, she is devastated by the sudden disappearance of his twin brother, Adric. Finding him is the only thing she can do for Bram now. But she little suspects what the cost to herself will be.

Haunted by nightmares, Cahira combs the island of Algarth for any trace of her brother-in-law. Along the way, her love of singing re-emerges, bringing comfort amid pain. Until a new and frightening power is unleashed within her, threatening those she holds dearest.

But an even greater danger is brewing, a plot against Algarth itself.

Cahira will face a terrible choice: risk her life, her soul, and her sanity in a battle against a monstrous enemy, or watch everything she loves disappear forever.

Magic, music, and monsters! I’m very proud of this novel and can’t wait to see it out in the world.

And now, without further ado, here’s the cover!

Isn’t that absolutely stunning?

Skalsinger will be released on 1st November 2021, in Kindle Ebook and Paperback, and will be available from Amazon and other online stores.

Greenhaelan is published!

My debut fantasy novel, Greenhaelan, is now officially published!

I first began writing this story in 2014, with nothing but a title, a character – an Australian gardener named Sara – and a vague idea of transporting her to a place where magic was real.
Ever since I was a child, I’ve loved the idea of travelling through a wardrobe, a hidden gate, or a swirling vortex, to a completely different world. So I sent Sara on that journey and followed her to see what happened.
Back then, I could never have envisioned what this small germ of an idea would become. It’s been a magical and wondrous journey for me too. Sometimes tough, often joyful, but always absorbing. I hope readers will feel the same.

The story:

Self-employed gardener Sara Martin has known from childhood that gardens are enchanted places. But she never expected the magic to be literal.
Miraculously swept away to a landscape dying in the grip of an ecological disaster, Sara discovers that the enchantment is as real as the danger. And when a forbidden healing power manifests in her, she is forced to question everything she has built her life on.
Uncertain how far she can trust her outlaw companions, pursued by an enemy intent on her destruction, Sara must decide how much she is willing to risk for a place and a people that are not her own.
And she will be forced to face the question: what is the price for choosing a safe, little life?

Greenhaelan is available in Kindle Ebook and Paperback from Amazon worldwide. Just click on the link below:

Publishing News and ARC Offer!

I am unbelievably excited to officially announce that I am publishing my debut novel in February!

It’s been a six-year journey to get to this point, with lots of ups and downs, thousands of hours of work, a ton of new learning, and yes, more than a few tears.

Greenhaelan (Chronicles of Algarth #1) is an adult fantasy novel that opens in a small town in Australia and then travels to the island of Algarth, where the people have never heard of cars, social media or microwaves. On the other hand, some of them can shape metal with their minds, heal with a touch and a thought, or communicate with animals.

In spite of these amazing abilities, things aren’t perfect in Algarth, and that’s where Australian gardener Sara Martin comes into the story.
