But Leola kept a secret; and a code of silence that reigned supreme throughout the family held that secret close. Following Leola’s death, her youngest daughter embarks on a journey through her mother’s past—a journey that takes her back more than sixty years to the discovery that Leola’s life took a dramatic turn when she married handsome WWII solider, James Williams. Determined to break the code of silence, she uncovers the truth of her mother’s compelling and shocking past.

D. H. Aire

His short story Crossroads of Sin debuts this week in the new anthology RealLies(trade paperback). He also blogs at the Highmage Blog and will feature authors there during the BBF:

Highmage's Plight:


Professor George Bradley, computer staff in hand, “envisions” an archaeological site, which could turn history on its head. Then he falls through a ripple in reality.

He enters a world where: trolls think they are human; elves believe humans can’t do magic since they don’t have souls; a child of prophecy is dying of a curse; a shape-changer is bent on killing him; a seeress keeps too many secrets; and an ogre and a boy struggle to defend a keep against the evil ruling it.

This is a world where a starship crash landed, bringing about a war, which led to the laws of magic defeating those of science.

Here a demon rages, intent on destroying all life, its minions intent on killing the human mage from another world.

If that wasn’t bad enough, George’s computer is now rather sarcastic.

As a book promotion, I’m giving away two books and an unusual side prize: an autographed copy of my debut novel Highmage’s Plight($7.99/paperback) or my anthology Flights of Fantasy, Volume 1 ($10.00/paperback) to two visitors from the Blogger’s Book Fair who sends me an email at dhr2believe at gmail dot com from February 7 through February 10. I’m literally going to put names in a hat and draw two winners. My only caveat is that to enter you must be a resident of the United States.

Now about the unusual accompanying prize: I’m currently offering the first 100 interested buyers of Highmage’s Plight a free membership to the Highmage’s Plight/Dhr2believe.net Group, who have online access to my online experiment to make a Highmage’s Plight and novel’s sequels an evolving series in the digital age. I began serializing the series online 2010, which led to the Plight’s publication. A forthcoming book in the series, Human Mage, is available in its entirety to the group. It was serialized in the Separate Worlds in 2012. I’m currently serializing Merchants and Mages and have posted a prequel short story to the series, which are only available to members of the group. So I’m giving the two winners of this give-away a compliment free one-year membership to the Highmage’s Plight/Dhr2believe.net Group. The only caveat here is that members must be 13 years old or older to participate.

Winners will receive all the details. You can learn more about my experiment and books at www.dhr2believe.net.

Elfblood: Elfblood Trilogy #1


Charlie is an elfblood, descended of a conquered people brought to the brink of extinction in the aftermath of a long war. Being able to pass for human gives Charlie an advantage over most of his kind. Only those who look at his record or those he chooses to tell, need ever know his secret. Growing up in an orphanage is hard enough without having to live with that stigma.

When soldiers come and haul the kids off to a prison work camp, Charlie finds himself no longer able to hide the truth of what he is. If that isn’t bad enough, the magic buried inside him is growing stronger and more out of control. As Charlie struggles with his own problems, and with the dangers of the work camp, he finds himself swept up in a much larger struggle, one whose outcome could decide the future of the world.

Then catastrophe strikes the small town in which she lives, thrusting Micayta and her brother Pytaki alone into the snow laden countryside. To keep herself and her brother alive will take all the strength that she has.

Then a mysterious stranger appears to complicate matters. Tech has an amazing story to tell, but is any of it true? Old wounds and betrayals make Micayta slow to trust, but without Tech she and her brother will never make it across the countryside alive. Through bandits, wolves, and snowstorms, the three struggle their way to the city of Phadra. But the real danger lies within the city walls, where Micayta becomes a player in a deadly game with a dark-eyed mage.

Nothing is what it seems.

As the truth unravels, Micayta finds herself drawn into a struggle much bigger than she ever dreamed. Choices must be made and sides taken. But the question of who to trust is one not easily answered. Micayta will have to open her heart and find a way to let someone else in, or the flames that destroyed her home will consume the world.
