Mytica is a realm being torn apart by gods and mortals

When you discover a world with the same name as a world you created many years ago.

By John Irvin

          A young adult high fantasy: Falling Kingdoms by Morgan Rhodes.  

          Y’all, I picked this book off the shelf and started reading the summary. When I discovered the name of the world, Mytica, I had to read the book.

          You see, back in high school, I wrote a short fiction about another dimension where there was this realm called Mytica…

          Weird, right?

          Turns out, this place and that place are NOT the same places.

          But, I loved this book and can’t wait to continue the rest of the series!

          Watch the video below—you already know, I know—and click one of the links I’ve provided to buy your own copy of Falling Kingdoms!

There are three kingdoms in Mytica and they’re all under a fragile peace that’s been ruling for centuries. Magic has been forgotten, apparently.

There are four main characters: Cleo, Jonas, Lucia, and Magnus.

There are crazy plots and overwhelming betrayals, murders, hidden alliances, and love that you never saw coming.

With everything going on, you know there is only one certain outcome.

Kingdoms will collapse.

Join the princess, the sorceress, the rebel, and the heir as they embark on missions out of their leagues!

When the Spirits of Wolves possess the Bodies of Humans

Check out this stirring novel about a werewolf who finds her world is not as it seems.

By John Irvin

          A young adult paranormal: Nightshade: Book 1 by Andrea Cremer.  

          I think this trilogy was one of the few I actually bought book two first and read it before I realised there was a previous publication. It worked out okay anyways.

          I enjoyed Book one as much as I did the sequel.

          I mean, it has to do with my favourite paranormal creature either way, so you know I won’t mind reading backwards.

          That also tells you Cremer is an amazing author since I was able to read them out of order and still enjoy them both immensely.

          So, watch the video and click through the links to buy Nightshade: Book 1!

Taken from Amazon’s Description:

“Calla is the alpha female of a shape-shifting wolf pack. She is destined to marry Ren Laroche, the pack’s alpha male. Together, they would rule their pack together, guarding sacred sites for the Keepers. But then, Calla saves a beautiful human boy, who captures her heart. Calla begins to question everything – her fate, her existence, and her world and the orders the Keepers have asked her to follow. She will have to make a choice. But will she follow her heart if it means losing everything, including her own life?

Calla’s story continues in WOLFSBANE.”

A Game that turns out to not be just a Game

When your lives are being threatened, it’s not just all fun and games anymore.

By John Irvin

          A magical world you won’t want to ever leave: Caraval by Stephanie Garber.  

          I’ve been seeing this short bestseller all over fellow authors’ Instagrams and other friends recommended it to me.

          I decided to try it out.

          Dark with a hair-raising plot, I found Caraval to be a very intriguing story and would recommend it to anyone considering checking it out.

          So, watch my YouTube episode for today then click through the links I’ve provided to buy your copy and enjoy the mystery of Caraval!

Taken from Goodreads’ Description:

“Scarlett Dragna has never left the tiny island where she and her sister, Tella, live with their powerful, and cruel, father. Now Scarlett’s father has arranged a marriage for her, and Scarlett thinks her dreams of seeing Caraval—the faraway, once-a-year performance where the audience participates in the show—are over.

But this year, Scarlett’s long-dreamt-of invitation finally arrives. With the help of a mysterious sailor, Tella whisks Scarlett away to the show. Only, as soon as they arrive, Tella is kidnapped by Caraval’s mastermind organizer, Legend. It turns out that this season’s Caraval revolves around Tella, and whoever finds her first is the winner.

Scarlett has been told that everything that happens during Caraval is only an elaborate performance. Nevertheless she becomes enmeshed in a game of love, heartbreak, and magic.”

Earth is a thing of the Past

A populated colony ship has been traveling space for centuries, will they ever reach their new home?

By John Irvin

          This young adult science fiction will give you a few surprises: Across the Universe by Beth Revis.  

          I had never heard of the Across the Universe series. One day I just came across it on Amazon and thought, “Huh, I like the sound of this,” and ordered it.

          Funny how many times the best books are found that way, right?

          Then I read the book and, naturally, I need the rest of the trilogy. This is one of those trilogies I wish was a series, not just a trilogy. You know?

          Watch the episode on YouTube and make sure you click through my links I’ve provided to order yourself a copy and begin the trek Across the Universe!

This spaceship, Godspeed, has been traveling the universe for three hundred years. Amy is seventeen years old, she was frozen as cargo with her parents in the ship to awaken on their new home planet.

But someone wakes her up prematurely.

Come to find out, there are secrets being kept and someone’s been murdered.

Who could want to keep the ship’s generational crew from reaching their destination?

It’s a race against time to stop the murderer and save the ship.

By the way, Amy was awakened fifty years too early.

I bet that makes you want to do this…

When a full-body tattoo is a Map

There is a multi-universe with hundreds of parallel realms.

By John Irvin

          A unique and thrilling adventure: The Skin Map by Stephen Lawhead.  

          Lawhead had me falling in love with the characters in this series. I started The Skin Map not knowing what to expect. What I got was an awesome adventure.

          Taking me on a trip to so many different times and events, the characters stumble upon one clue after another that points them to a mystery of the universe.

          Or should I say multi-verse?

          Either way, Lawhead actually became a big influence on my own writing after I read this book.

          Please watch the video and click through the links provided to grab yourself a copy of The Skin Map!

A seemingly accident voyage across the dimensions takes Kit Livingstone on the ultimate treasure hunt.

His unpleasant girlfriend, Wilhelmina, doesn’t think so.

But, follow Kit and his new friends he meets along the way and you will be rewarded with an adventure that will be remembered for your lifetime.

The way we travel to other dimensions is through what are known as Ley Lines. This is not a new revelation. Stories about this portals are all throughout Celtic history.

But the adventure Lawhead takes you on is unique in its own way. This treasure Kit and everyone else seeks could mean either the ultimate enlightenment or the end of the multi-verse…we think.

You’ll have to read the books to find out.

In the World of Corona, a Highwayman takes control

A simple cripple gains special powers and flips the world upside down.

By John Irvin

          Today’s spotlight: The Highwayman by R. A. Salvatore.  

          I saw this book at my favorite bookstore and the cover made me think of Princess Bride. The way the masked man looked like Dread Pirate Roberts made me think it was really cool.

          Then I bought the book and became a fan.

          I love the world of Corona and R. A. Salvatore is a master of driving a plot along and keeping the reader flipping pages.

          I enjoyed exploring the Holdings in this world. Pryd is where the story is set and it’s troubled by powrie dwarves and various kingdom and religious conflicts.

          Bransen Garibond is the son of an adulteress sentenced to death by the Samhaists—a brutal religious order. She’s rescued and healed.

          But, the poison from the snake bite—a part of her attempted execution—has crippled the unborn child.

          He is raised by the Abellican Monks and is introduced to soul stones which help him take control of his body and he becomes the Highwayman.

          You really should watch my short episode about it and click through the links provided to buy a copy of The Highwayman!

Bransen Garibond is a hero. Treated cruelly by the Brothers of Abelle, except for one of them, he is forced to learn how to fend for himself and takes on a vendetta against those who bully others.

He becomes a defender of the realm and his legend is widely spread. In fact, he plays a part in the upcoming war for Pryd!

R. A. Salvatore will really keep you interested in learning more about this world of Corona and the Holdings and Peoples of the land. I can’t wait to read more of his works! So click this link to go buy: THE HIGHWAYMAN.
