Political unrest, war over valuable mines, forbidden love, and a homesick dragon bound in chains threaten the land of two moons.

Land of Two Moons

by D.L. Gardner

Genre: YA Epic SciFi Fantasy Adventure

“The gritty reality of trench warfare and the smoky chaos of riots is striking in D. L. Gardner’s Land of Two Moons…a rich and ambitious fantasy novel that successfully builds a world trembling on the brink of magical and political upheaval. This is a delicate, intricate novel that rewards patient reading.” – Independent Book Review

Arthur and Hallie are twin siblings, son and daughter of the Duke of Lodesmoor. Humble teenagers who befriend the village people and sympathize with their grievances. Their father, Lord Balmier, whose duchy is approaching financial collapse, uses his subjects as pawns in a battle over a string of valuable mines.

Lord Balmier sees his son’s sympathy toward the serfs as an alliance against him and soon acts to squelch Arthur’s sedition.

Hallie clings to a forbidden love, and both siblings must resist their father’s harsh rule.

All the while they are unaware that their mother keeps a mystical dragon named Killian, bound in chains by a spell, whose fate will affect them all.

As the twin moons approach a rare and magical eclipse, alliances shift, secrets unravel, and Arthur and Hallie must choose between loyalty, freedom, and sacrifice to save their people and themselves.

“With strong pacing and a cast of memorable characters – including a homesick dragon, this is the perfect book for fans of the ‘fantasy’ genre. Highly recommended!” – The Wishing Shelf

Land of Two Moons

Why two? Why not half a dozen if we’re going to double things?

This story is about twins.  Two moons, two siblings, two dragons, and about their bond with one another.

Traveling through the heavens, Puck and Phoebe are two giant orbs, a magnificent sight to the humans who live on the planet Unnilles. Both beautiful and dreadful. But what is most terrifying is that every forty years they will meet and turn the world dark. In those days, the wind wreaks havoc in their villages and cities.

Why this story?

Having lived through a few generations, I see a pattern that repeats itself. Children hit a stage in their life when they rebel against their parents, and in turn, grow older and wiser only to find their children rebelling against them. I wanted to show the struggle of families trying to get through this awkward phase.

The twins in Land of Two Moons have compassion for the common people, but Dad, the Duke, wants to rule with an iron fist, mostly because he’s going bankrupt. His stubbornness causes his children to go out on their own to stop a war that is bringing their father’s duchy to ruin.

The support system the teens have is in each other, and that support is magnified by twin moons and ultimately twin dragons. What stands out is their loyalty to one another and how it changes the people they come into contact with, and how it changes the world they live in.

The moral, if there is to be one, is that true love, Agape love, is the most powerful of all forces around. It’s a bond of loyalty, trust, and forgiveness. But the struggle to obtain that is no small feat, and sometimes it takes an outsider to verify you’ve arrived.

Land of Two Moons is a family story, a wholesome adventure for all ages.

What would you do if you woke up a different age and gender?

Switched

by Angela Lam

Genre: Dystopian Cyberpunk SciFi Fantasy

A global phenomenon is rewriting the laws of biology, causing men over fifty-five and women between eighteen and forty to suddenly and inexplicably switch their ages and genders. No one understands it, and no one can stop it.

Maxine thinks she can stay on the sidelines, supporting her brilliant boyfriend-turned-girlfriend Jo—an audacious biotech pioneer, who’s breaking new ground with brain-to-brain communication. But when the transformation strikes Maxine, her reality is flipped upside down.

Now facing an unexpected future, Max must grapple with their identity, struggling to align who they were with who they have become. Can they reclaim control over a life that’s no longer theirs, or will they be swept away by the changes they never asked for?

What inspired you to write this book?

A few things coalesced around the same time: I read The Last White Man by Mohsim Hamid and admired his ability to transcend racism through magical realism. I finally read The Handmaid’s Tale by Margaret Atwood and was haunted by the dystopian world where women lost all rights. I was still recovering from the pandemic and could not write directly about it since no one wanted to publish anything to do with it. And, finally, my own experience within my immediate circle of influence regarding the challenges posed by transgenderism, bisexuality, and ageism surfaced. All of these factors, both read and experienced, inspired Switched.

I like how Publisher’s Weekly Booklife Prize describes the novel:  “Ultimately, the work’s greatest strength lies in its examination of age, gender, and sexuality–and how these characteristics inform identity and relationships with others.” That’s what I was aiming for, and I’m thankful the reviewers at Publisher’s Weekly recognized that accomplishment.

What can we expect from you in the future?

I don’t know. As I said before, I’m still recovering from my concussion and haven’t been writing. But I am leaving all doors open, all things possible, so you’ll have to sign up for my newsletter or visit my social media sites periodically to see what transpires.

Where did you come up with the names in the story?

I needed names that could be both genders, so that’s how I came up with Joe/Jo and Maxine/Max.

How did you come up with name of this book?

Ugh. I hate titles. I wish the publishers would name all of my books, but they don’t. I tried out several titles with beta readers and selected the one with the most positive votes. That’s how I ended up with Switched.

What did you edit out of this book? I edited out an entire point of view. Originally, Switched toggled back and forth between Maxine’s story and Joe’s story. But when I was in developmental edits, my editor said she was confused. The story was too complicated. Did I want to focus on corporate espionage and gender discrimination in the workplace, or did I want a more intimate story about how gender impacts daily life? I chose the latter and scrapped Joe’s chapters. Some readers will sense the ghost of this absence. But the things I don’t show from Joe’s point of view are covered by Maxine’s point of view as the romantic partner who knows Joe better than anyone else. So, there is a shadow of that other story lingering in this novel.

New Age Crime Thriller That Will Leave You Breathless From Shock And Excitement!
‘Sci-fi and mystery readers shouldn’t miss this one!’

Persephone’s Pool
by Marie Montine
Genre: SciFi Crime Thriller

“The settings and the unusual killings make for compelling, often unexpected material…A detailed, futuristic detective story that is anything but typical.” – Kirkus Reviews

“A scrumptious mix of suspense, mystery, and intrigue makes Persephone’s Pool a delightful treat that sci-fi and crime lovers will relish.” – Pikasho Deka for Readers’ Favorite

Seven meets Lucy in this New Age Crime Thriller that takes investigators to different crime scenes on multiple planets on a dangerous, mythological game of cat and mouse!

A hundred years from now people can visit any planet in the solar system and take a vacation.
Despite all of the technological advancements, a new craving emerges: spirituality.
With the Age of Aquarius on the threshold, intergalactic murders involving mythology begin.
And it’s up to two investigators to find out why.
But the further they get into their investigation, the more dangerous the game becomes.

‘Author Marie Montine repeatedly pulls the rug out from under your feet with a plot featuring multiple twists and turns you never see coming. The reveals are unexpected and shocking. What impressed me is how Montine provides each character with enough urgency and distinct personality traits so that the reader is completely invested in their story arcs. The setting feels believably futuristic, which makes the story very immersive. You don’t know if your favorite characters will make it out alive, and it keeps you on the edge of your seat. Sci-fi and mystery readers shouldn’t miss this one!’ – Readers Favorite

What inspired you to write this book?
I was in a bad place more than a decade ago, very lost, got to the point of self-destruction. There was a stranger who bumped into me one day, and told me things about life, things that clicked with me because these were things I was always interested in but never pursued. Something happened that day, it sparked my mind and my soul. This book I wrote is actually the product of that day, the culmination of my life turning around, finding my true love, and getting back into writing. This book represents what the stranger told me.

What can we expect from you in the future?
I would actually love to write more crime thrillers based on astrology like Persephone’s Pool.

How did you come up with the concept and characters for the book?
I have been wanting to write this story for a while. I knew I wanted one that had more astrological prevalence, and I wanted to do it in a fun way, to showcase how awesome mythology and astrology can be.

What did you enjoy most about writing this book?
I think the whole process was enjoyable because this was actually the easiest story I had ever written because when they say the book wrote itself, well, this one did! And didn’t have to do too much research like I did with Midnight on Mars because I already knew so much astrology.

Tell us about your main characters- what makes them tick?
The main characters are Hades and Persephone, (for spoiler reasons, I can not reveal the characters’ names) and while they are in their current incarnation, they act out of their current personalities, needs and wants. But in their soul’s undercurrent swims a need from past incarnations, and careful readers will see this manifest throughout the story until the climax. Will Persephone fall victim once again to Hades’ power and control? Or will she break and free and create her own power?

Anything specific you want to tell your readers?
Many of my books have a common theme of Hades and Persephone, of love vs hate, light vs dark. And of sacrificing for love. Two of novels contain astrology in there: Persephone’s Pool, and Midnight on Mars. I hope people don’t mind that and love the characters as much as I do.

Behind the Scenes: The Inspiration for Shadowed Skies
Every story has an origin, and Shadowed Skies was no exception. This novel was born out of a mix of inspiration, personal experience, and a love for dystopian adventure with a touch of the fantastical. Today, I’m taking you behind the scenes to explore how this story came to life—from its first spark of an idea to the fully realized world of the Evol-humans.

The Spark of an Idea
The first whispers of Shadowed Skies emerged during NaNoWriMo 2019. At the time, life was a whirlwind of responsibilities, and most of my writing sessions took place in the carpool lane while waiting for my kids. It was during those stolen moments that River and Delene’s world began to take shape. I wanted to write a story that blended high-stakes survival with the emotional depth of identity, freedom, and resistance.

Wings, Science, and the Ethics of Experimentation
I’ve always been fascinated by the intersection of science and ethics, particularly the unintended consequences of genetic experimentation. What if human beings were engineered for a purpose—only to be discarded when that purpose no longer suited their creators? This question became the foundation of Shadowed Skies and the plight of the Evol-humans. Designed as super-soldiers with avian DNA, they were meant to be resilient, capable of thriving in extreme environments. But as history often repeats, humanity fears what it does not understand. The same people who created the Evol-humans turned on them, leading to their persecution, imprisonment, and fight for survival.

A World Shaped by Dystopian Influences
I’ve always been drawn to dystopian fiction, from classics like 1984 and Brave New World to modern YA series like The Hunger Games and The Darkest Minds. These stories highlight resilience in the face of oppression, a theme that resonated deeply with me. However, I wanted to add a unique twist—rather than a purely tech-driven future, Shadowed Skies introduces an evolutionary shift, where biology itself becomes both a weapon and a weakness.

Survival in the Wild
Much of Shadowed Skies is set in rugged, mountainous landscapes, inspired by the breathtaking wilderness of Utah. I wanted to capture the raw beauty and danger of the wild—how nature can be both a sanctuary and a merciless force. River, one of the main characters, has learned to live off the land, a skill that not only defines his character but also plays a crucial role in the survival of those like him.

Characters with Heart and Struggle
At its core, this story is about two people who refuse to be caged—literally and figuratively. River, haunted by loss and determined to stay hidden, must confront his past and decide if he will fight for more than just his own survival. Delene, who has suffered unimaginable losses, refuses to let fear break her spirit. Their journey is one of trust, resilience, and ultimately, hope.

The Journey from Draft to Publication
Like any novel, Shadowed Skies went through multiple drafts, revisions, and deep dives into worldbuilding. Thanks to an incredible editorial team and supportive readers, the story transformed into what it is today—a thrilling blend of action, suspense, and heart.

Final Thoughts
Writing Shadowed Skies was an adventure, one that challenged me in ways I never expected. I hope readers find themselves lost in this world, rooting for River and Delene as they navigate a future shaped by both humanity’s cruelty and its potential for redemption.
Thank you for joining me on this behind-the-scenes look at Shadowed Skies! I’d love to hear from you—what are your favorite dystopian worlds, and what elements make them unforgettable to you?

Military scientist Rydel Scott has discovered time travel. He also believes he’s received a message from God. The message: go back in time and save Jesus from being crucified.

“Save Him combines the physics of chaos theory and the whiz-bang action of a techno thriller to fuel a military page-turner that tests the faith of everyone involved.” – Blue Ink Reviews
“Every time I thought I had this book figured out a little bit it surprised me…and then did it again and again.” Amazon Reviewer

Military scientist Rydel Scott is proud of the hi-tech gear he invents for battlefield heroes. When a secret mission involving one of his inventions goes horribly wrong, Rydel obsessively tries to learn what caused the system failure and accidentally reveals the ability to time travel. Overworked and massively sleep-deprived, he believes he has received a message from God—save God’s son. And the man of science embarks on a world-changing quest to rescue Jesus. As he covers his tracks to journey back undetected, he neglects to factor in the consequences of a devastating butterfly effect. And he’s terrified to discover The Unit, a highly-trained team of elite soldiers, is hunting him down to stop him from making choices that could upend all of human history. Will they find Rydel before he alters the past? And, if they find him, will some in The Unit be persuaded to join Rydel on his mission to save Christ?

Dragons Walk Among Us (The Allison Lee Chronicles Book 1) by Dan Rice

Genre: YA Fantasy

At times it’s hard to believe what you see.

Shutterbug Allison Lee is trying to survive high school while suffering the popular girl’s abuse. Her life is often abysmal, but at least her green hair is savage. Her talent for photography is recognized by the school paper and the judges of a photo contest.

While visiting her friend Joe, a homeless vet, Allison’s life irrevocably changes after an attack leaves her blind. All her dreams as a photojournalist are dashed as she realizes she’ll never see again. Despair sets in until she is offered an experimental procedure to restore her vision. But there are side effects, or are they hallucinations? She now sees dragons accompanying some of the people she meets. Can she trust her eyes, or has the procedure affected her more than she can see?

“Debut author Rice offers an allegorical YA fantasy novel about the transformative power of self-love.

Savvy, coffee-loving teenager Allison Lee is strong beyond her years. The biracial girl faces open discrimination and also copes with her apparent abandonment by her mother, who disappeared several years ago. She’s developed a keen sense of social justice along with a skill for photography. When a mysterious stalker hits her over the head, leaving her blind, she turns to an experimental eye-surgery procedure that forever changes her view of the world. Once, Allison saw her camera as her window to the truth; now, with her naked eye, she’s able to see mythological creatures that aren’t visible to other humans and that fight to protect their way of life. Allison’s ability results in her embarking on a dangerous adventure as she discovers her own highly unusual dragon-hunting legacy. She faces mortal peril as she protects humans and other creatures from a violent, otherworldly onslaught. Along the way, she also gets in touch with her own physical and emotional resilience. Although dragons play a central role in Rice’s work, the heart of the narrative is found in simple humanity and in a celebration of differences. Throughout, characters demonstrate emotional growth as they confront their limiting beliefs about others and embrace a sense of family. The story addresses serious, socially relevant subject matter, such as discrimination, poverty, and bullying, but it’s never preachy; indeed, it has a lighthearted tone that will resonate with adolescent readers. It concludes on an affirming, heartfelt note that will leave readers thoroughly satisfied yet also curious about the future of Rice’s magical fictional world.

An inspirational and socially relevant fantasy.”

Darkness Made (The Marked Trilogy Book 1) by Charlotte E. Pool ~ Genre: Urban Fantasy, Paranormal Romance, SciFi

To become what she was made for, she must lose everything

*Urban fantasy meets paranormal romance meets science fiction in this nail-biting, heart-racing story of loss, love, revenge, and the darkness that lives within us all.*

The town of Landow, Virginia, is a tiny, quiet, suburban sort of place where nothing ever happens, and no one ever seems to leave.

Eighteen-year-old Bexley Rose is quietly resigned to her ordinary life in this infuriatingly quaint town. Aside from the car accident thirteen years ago that killed her father, nothing interesting has ever happened to her.

Enter Asher, a curious newcomer who disturbs the daily monotony of Landow, sparking whispers and rumors among the locals. A peculiar magnetism draws them together. As she spends more time with him, the list of unanswered questions about his past grows, and with it, Bexley’s unease.

But when one of Bexley’s classmates is found dead in a hotel, Bexley finally learns what Asher is doing in Landow. He isn’t human, and soon Bexley won’t be either. Asher’s people have lived in secret alongside mankind for millennia, governed by an international organization known as The Council, and now Bexley is part of their underground world. As the body count in Landow grows, Bexley demands answers. And when she gets them, she finds herself at the center of an age-old prophecy and an emerging war between species.

Meet my manuscript! Ten things to know about this beauty!

by Charlotte E. Pool

1) urban fantasy thriller with elements of paranormal romance and a dash of science fiction.

2) this is a kissing book but it is not primarily a romance.

3) dark themes, blood, gore.

4) it is the first in a trilogy and ends on a cliffhanger. It does NOT stand alone. The second book is in the works.

5) it is written from multiple POVs. Think: Dan Brown. It’s meant to keep you guessing and on your toes. And it all comes together in the end.

6) the sci Fi element is reminiscent of the da Vinci code. Heavy and fascinating. Fiction woven into nonfiction. Lots of research went into this book. Lots of true stories/myths/legends based in real history.

7) if you like slow burn romance and banter this may not be for you. If you like sex and suspense and a little bit of fantasy and magical realism…not to mention some truly “love to hate” characters, then this book is what you’re looking for.

8) it is a vampire book, but not one like you’ve read before.

9) there is a LOT of backstory…duh these characters are hundreds of years old…but you’ll have to wait for the second book for most of it…it will get into WWII era Europe and some wicked betrayal.

10) so think…Vampire Diaries meets The Da Vinci Code meets historical fiction meets Ocean’s 11….yeah…kinda like that!

I am happy to be one of many tour hosts sharing information about Darkness Made by Charlotte E. Pool.
