Book Description
L.E. Modesitt, Jr., has developed a wide readership with his popular fantasy novels set in the universe of Recluce. With more than a million copies in print, he continues to build a substantial audience with each new volume. He widened that audience with the first three volumes of the Spellsong Cycle set in a compelling and imaginative world where music is the vehicle for the creation and wielding of magic. He now returns to that universe for a new series of tales starring a new heroine who must face a succession of deadly political and military threats. The Shadow Sorceress continues the story begun in the first Spellsong trilogy but focuses on the challenges facing Secca, now a young Sorceress. She is thrust into a position of power and responsibility when her mentor, Anna, the legendary Sorceress Protector of Defalk and the heroine of the original trilogy, dies unexpectedly before Secca's training as a master magic wielder is anywhere near complete. Despite her reservations concerning the skills and strength of the ruler of the kingdom, Secca must immediately take command of all her magical resources to help suppress internal dissension in a neighboring province. Then she must rally potential allies to lift the naval siege laid on Nordwei by the Sea Priests, who bring with them a new kind of drumming magic that threatens the balance of power in the world, portending danger and destruction not imagined for decades. Secca learns to fight battles with sorcerous skills she has never used before, while leading an army for the first time. She must master diplomacy in order to save her ruler and his kingdom, form alliances with unfriendly potential allies, and mediate power struggles among ambitious and disparate societies. At the same time she discovers an unexpected chance for love and companionship in a world where few men are wise enough to value women as anything more than wives, mistresses, or mothers. Coping with these challenges, Secca proves herself more than just a quick study; she has become a woman with a limitless capacity for courage, personal growth, and fearless commitment to survival and fighting the good fight.

Book Description
Being a witch isn't easy when you work for the people who would burn you at the stake. A Grave Magic Darkness can't always be beaten by the light. Sometimes you have to fight fire with fire. Amber Morgan is a rookie in The Elite, an organisation tasked with the elimination of rogue preternatural beings in King City. But she has a secret. She's a witch and only joined The Elite to settle a personal score. Her first case is supposed to be the routine investigation of a rogue vampire but it soon becomes clear that dark forces are at work, darker than anything the team has dealt with in the past. When an irritatingly sexy Hunter offers to help, Amber wants to say hell no! The last thing she needs is another distraction even if he is sin personified. But with the fate of a missing child at stake and a possible connection between the case and her past, how can she refuse? Blood Craft With her first case behind her, Amber's position within the Elite seems to be set in stone. She's the darling of the media, the rookie who saved the day and everyone's ass. But as far as she's concerned, the limelight is no place for a Shadow Sorceress. A new case throws Amber into murky water. Someone is dropping bodies in King City, bodies that conceal a much darker truth, and it's up to Amber to make sense of it all. Blindsided when a personal loss devastates her, she is left scrambling to pick up the shattered pieces. With her magic growing at a rapid pace, Amber must find a way to keep her secrets hidden and control her power or risk exposing herself as a Shadow Sorceress to those who would see her dead. In other words, just another day at the office... Grim Rites Suspended from the Elite for committing a murder she can't remember, Amber Morgan finds herself at risk of being exposed as a Sorceress. The only person she can trust is Nic, but whenever she gets too close to him, she risks being exposed in other ways. With demonic attacks occurring across the city and the body of a witch hunter turning up in an alley, Amber takes on a new case which means fighting personal demons as well as the ones that want to eat her heart and wear her skin like a cheap suit. When the witch hunter case gets too hot, Amber is forced to walk the line between Heaven and Hell, risking her life and soul in the process. Honestly, who does a girl have to kill to stay alive around here?

Book Description
How deep do I need to bury the past to make it stay down? Twice in two months, a witch named Abigail has used my dark history to try to destroy me. For weeks, my team has hunted her, but she’s as skilled as evading us as I am at stuffing my nightmares where I can’t see them. Except she’s not evading us anymore. Now she’s coming straight for us, and I have to be ready. For every blow she strikes, I need to strike back—even if it means turning my feet in a direction I haven’t walked in almost nine hundred years. Emrick and my chosen family stand with me, but I fear they’ll get caught in the crossfire. Especially as secrets are revealed and the truth unravels in ways that make my world tremble. Abigail thinks she can use my past to draw blood. I’ll make her regret every drop.

Book Description
This is a sequel to “Princess White Flame” and is a children’s story about a curse placed on Princess White Flame of the Fire Fairies and how it was lifted. OF all the fairy countries in the world none is more wonderful or beautiful than the country where the Fire Fairies live. Into that land no fairies of the earth, or air, or water dare venture. They would be seared, or changed to ash or vapor. In the very heart of the Fire Country stands the palace of King Red Flame, the gleaming flame-coloured palace, the Palace of Burning Coals. Around it lies a wonderful garden, where paths wind away among great fields of fire lilies, and flame roses lift their heads, and the tall shining trees rustle in the wind with a sound like the whispering of the fire on the hearth. Here in this glowing country the good and happy fairies work and play, and serve their king as all good fairies should. But not all fairies in this land are good and happy. Beyond the glow of the roses and the lilies, beyond all sight of the glimmering trees, there lies another part of the country where the evil fairies live. Here are great Plains of Ash, and huge Caverns of Soot, and stretches of gloom in which the Shadow Witch comes and goes. Here the Imps of Darkness lurk, Dragons crouch, and Wizards dwell. Perhaps sometimes when you have looked into the Fireplace you have seen those dismal plains and darksome valleys. They lie away from the heart of the Fire, at the side of the Hearth, and between the flames and the heaps of ashes. In this story you will hear tell of Prince Radiance, and Princess White Flame who lived in the Fire Country and of many strange and wonderful adventures on which they journeyed on to reach, at last, a never-ending happiness.
