The King Tree

 Frightful signs in the heavens and on earth...

'A Gathering Darkness' is the exciting first book in the Valerian Series, a contemporary urban fantasy where 16th and 21st centuries collide. What comes after will change everything! 

Most know me as Kaelynn Carroll, Theo's fiance, curator of the New York Museum of Art. What you don't know, is the darkness that stirs within me, a Pandora's Box of hunger and anger and disease.

What began as a simple trip to Britain to catalog a 16th Century Art collection would soon turn into a nightmare beyond anything I could imagine. For you see, between the darkness beneath the museum, and the return trip home, I lived another's life, another reality. Inadvertently I set something free.

Six years in the making- Well worth the wait!  Coming late 2020!

Spanish Edition-

Juntos se embarcarán en un viaje épico, descubrirán una historia increíble, emprenderán la misión de encontrar una tierra mágica perdida en la historia y se enfrentarán a un enemigo despiadado dispuesto a hacer lo que haga falta para detenerlos. 

Portuguese Edition-

Um novo prodígio, enfatiza  E. Finlayson de Staffordshire, UK.Este livro pode igualmente ser  apreciado tanto como um livro adulto, quanto juvenil. O elenco é fora do comum e o autor constrói o suspense e a atmosfera da história habilidosamente. Assim como outros críticos, eu dificilmente diria que esta história acaba aqui, e eu espero muito pelo Livro 2. Like other reviewers I could hardly put it down until it was finished, and I hope very much for a Book 2. 

Italian Edition-

 “Per rinascere, una fenice deve morire!”
Se avessi l’opportunità di cambiare la storia, lo faresti?
Immagina di essere un tredicenne solo al mondo, che vive per le strade della contorta e frenetica New York, di non avere alcun luogo per riposare, alcun luogo da chiamare tuo. Immagina che tutto ciò che sapevi essere vero, la storia della tua famiglia, del tuo paese, la ragione stessa della tua esistenza fosse una bugia, qualcosa che nessun altro al mondo conosce.

A crown with no King, a sword left undrawn.

The Summer People tells the tale of heroes and foes, cloaked men and sorcerers, serpent people and the enigmatic Romani.
An unlikely band of heroes, young Jake and the Twins Eli and Ash, join  forces with a mysterious stranger, Merwin of the Order of Rasputin.  Together they seek to recover what was taken; their parents, a Kingdom's  lost throne, a hero lost to the Ages, and the truth behind the  mysterious Summer People.    

Leave it to the Serpent people to steal everything, including Jake’s parents. Determined to find them, Jake seeks out his next-door neighbors, the Twin’s Ashley and Elijah. Together with Merwin, a mysterious stranger of the Order of Rasputin, they begin a journey of discovery and fear, of a people called the Summer People, and their age-old enemies the sibilant.  

Our story continues, as Jake, Ash and Eli find themselves thrown in the midst of conflict between the Summer People, and the Serpent People.  An ancient enemy appears, even as Jake finds out what it takes to be a Hero! 

In Book Three, Jake and crew find themselves cast into chaos, as their 'just getting away's' get closer and closer to 'being caught's'.  Can Jake find the strength to stand against the Serpent People, and free his parents?

 With everything on the line, parent's still missing, and the Cloaked Man stalking them, it will take all the courage Jake, Ash and Eli can muster, to defeat the darkness, and free their friends.

Review: Beautiful.  I didn’t know what genre this was when I  started listening.  It’s a strange and beautiful tale about the  afterlife. The narrator does  a brilliant job of telling this story.   

 The death of a grandparent may be a child’s first experience of losing  someone close to them. While there is no easy way to navigate through the grieving  process, it can be helpful to have some strategies in place when it  comes to talking about loss, and what it means. For Liam, that means  talking to God, and climbing the enormous tree in his  backyard. 

Sometimes, saying ‘Goodbye’ doesn’t mean forever!
