 Talen, the Elven crown prince, serves Human Queen Arlena as her "Sworn". His position places the young prince at the head of his queen's armies as commander and trainer. He is also Arlena's oldest and best friend.

Featured Indie/Self-Published Author New Release: K.M. Fahy

Hello all! A new website page is now up: Featured Indie/Self-Published Author New Release: K.M. Fahy! I am so excited to be able to announce the December 2020 new release from indie/self-published author, K.M. Fahy: The Lightning's Claim! 

K.M Fahy is a fellow Fantasy author. Her new debut release, The Lightning's Claim, is a YA Dark Fantasy following a strong female heroin (Kitieri Manon) who is running and fighting for her life at the same time.

Here is the complete description in the author's own words for this month's featured indie/self-published author new release: K.M. Fahy:

To walk outside is to dance with death--

and Kitieri Manon knows all the steps: Don’t stand out. Don’t make friends. And, when the warnings start, run as fast as you can.

Every day is a fight for survival in a world terrorized by the deadly lightning they call the Blue Killer. The Churches call it divine punishment, but Kitieri has only ever known the good to suffer. It’s easy for the elites to preach, hoarding the life-saving cintra while the poor die in droves.

As the Strikes grow increasingly violent, Kitieri finds herself a walking target. She can smell the lightning coming before the warnings, can feel the malice in the air. The Blue Killer seeks her blood.
It calls to her.

To answer that call, Kitieri will risk everything. Lives hang in the balance as she is swept into a network of deceit, corruption, and betrayal running deeper than she ever could have imagined. With blood on her hands and a target on her back, Kitieri must come to terms with who and what she is before she loses those she holds dear.

If she cannot control the part of herself she hates the most, the lightning will claim more than just her life."
Want to see more about the book and character art of the main character? Check out the full feature on my website HERE.
