However, the Goddess herself forbids it. The great Mother, the very world they stand upon has become tired once more. She calls her emissaries to insure that the men of Andaria are the first to feel her wrath. The Goddess of the Free People forbids them to go to the aid of the Andarian people. Instead, she sends Hellion on a quest to bring the lost tribes to their new homes in the Fairlands.
In the forests, the children of Andaria seek asylum. They cross the river into the Fairlands, but their destructive ways must not be allowed to mark their journey. Fire has been left to oversee their exodus and insure her own beloved can return safely. As she prepares the clans, the unprecedented formation of the six armies begins. Five allies will join her. The three most ancient races of Gaia put aside their differences and offer support to Fire’s command.
The armies of men and dwarves, still thankful for the Free People’s help in regaining their homes pledge their support as well. Fire finds herself in command of an army the likes of which this world has never seen before. An army that can crush the madman that races along Andaria leaving a swatch of chaos and destruction in its wake.
Still, the wishes of the Goddess cannot be ignored. Andaria must fall. However, the refugees that huddle in the Fairlands must be saved and the pursuing army halted. Fire, suddenly imbued with the gift of realization of who she is, sheds her self-doubt and stands at the head of her armies. While Andaria has been chosen, the madman will not enter the Fairlands! This is her will and her savagery on the battlefield will become legend!

Blood Moon Sacrifice by Ed Ireland

Title: Blood Moon Sacrifice

Series: The Chronicles of the Huntress

Blurb:

The heroes of Castia have been forgotten by the corrupt government. When Vespias returns home for a visit with her family, events begin to take place that will plunge not only Castia into war again, but half the known world as well.
The Black King Romero has devised a plan to weaken the forces surrounding his fortress/prison in Icea. He sends a massive mercenary army towards Navvas. At the same time, he incites the Prince of Castia to enter into a civil war to prevent a coup from dethroning him. The only ally the Castian have is the Crescent Moon Knights of Bardynn. Vespias is made aware of this new threat that will destroy her home. With a firm commitment by the Regent of Tiran towards democracy, she assembles her own allies, the Junin and the Gar'vothian armies to add to Salaris' army in Navvas.
However, as if the threat of Romero and a civil war was not enough of a problem for the Huntress, a mysterious cult rises in the southern jungles of Gemmal. This "Cult of the Blood Moon" will draw the fierce Gyrnnalli warriors into a battle that might just aid Romero's release after all. Vespias must now coordinate attacks on three fronts in her own lands as well as one across the seas. While she must do all of this to insure Romero remains in his self-made prison, she must also battle the inner demons she still carries that manifest in her flasks of spirits that lead to far too many drunken nights.
Blood Moon Sacrifice is a thrilling return to the lives of Vespias and her family. Their world is revealed a little more and maps are now included so that you, the reader, can look at the places and see what Vespias, her allies and her enemies see.

Series: Time Will Tell

Two teens from two centuries apart, one the direct descendant of the other. Einstein's Theory didn't cover THIS relativity.
Sean Kelly considered himself an average 16-year-old, living in an average neighborhood in a small University town. Nothing too exciting ever happened in Grover's Corners, Missouri; some might even label it boring. His ordinary life was disrupted when a distant relative dropped by at the beginning of his Junior year in high-school. A distant relative from the 23rd Century.
