About

Got involved with fantasy when comics escorled my imagination. Then, the Oz series by L. Frank Baum, reinforced my retreat into imaginary worlds. While I sometimes read science fictions, I mostly gravitate to fantasy and the paranormal, especially if there's an intriguing mystery involved.

Now, me and my trusty computer, travel through the alternative worlds in my mind: the Far Isles Half-Elven and the people of Andor who are plagued by magic and demons.

Story Behind The Book

One day while recovering from surgery [aka napping], I saw a picture of this despairing woman standing on a sea cliff, long reddish hair streaming behind her. I just had to explore her story and discovered she was a hero of the Far Isles Half-Elven Rebellion who gave up politics ... only to be drawn back into it.

<p><strong>Review by:</strong> <a href="http://www.smashwords.com/profile/view/HGEstok"> H.G. Estok </a> on Nov. 17, 2013 : <img alt="star" height="16" src="http://www.smashwords.com/static/img/star.png" width="16" /><img alt="star" height="16" src="http://www.smashwords.com/static/img/star.png" width="16" /><img alt="star" height="16" src="http://www.smashwords.com/static/img/star.png" width="16" /><img alt="star" height="16" src="http://www.smashwords.com/static/img/star.png" width="16" /><br /> The power of a mother's love (be she human or half-elven) comes through loud and clear in this novella. I enjoyed the fantasy aspects -- mindspeak, in particular, as well as the transferring/teleporting -- and the humor throughout was just great. The ending definitely leaves more of the story to be told, and as this novella takes place in a much larger world with its own history, that makes sense. I'm sure there will be many more half-elven tales published in the near future!</p> <p> </p> <div class="mt4 ttl"><span class="swSprite s_star_4_0" title="4.0 out of 5 stars"><span>4.0 out of 5 stars</span></span> <a class="txtlarge gl3 gr4 reviewTitle valignMiddle" href="http://www.amazon.com/review/R3AV05TVLKTCV2/ref=cm_cr_dp_title?ie=UTF8&amp;ASIN=B00GODKVFQ&amp;nodeID=283155&amp;store=books"><strong>More please.</strong></a><span class="gry valignMiddle"> <span class="inlineblock txtsmall">April 17, 2013</span> </span></div> <div class="mt4 ath"><span class="gr10"><span class="txtsmall"><span class="gry">By</span> <a class="noTextDecoration" href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/pdp/profile/A33ZPRPPC1648I/ref=cm_cr_dp_pdp">bertiejf</a></span> </span></div> <div class="txtsmall mt4 fvavp"><span class="inlineblock formatVariation"><span class="gr3 gry formatKey">Format:</span><span class="formatValue">Kindle Edition</span></span></div> <div class="mt9 reviewText"> <div class="drkgry">Taking Vengeance by M K Theodoratus is the story of the remnants of the half-elven peoples and their bid to live at peace in the world that is left to them after the war.<br /><br /> Mariah is a leader amongst her people, a hero from the wars and now a healer. Her husband, now a spy and Linden, now the King, fought together during the wars and earned for themselves and their peoples a place of honor, and a treaty, so they could live in peace.<br /><br /> This peace is shattered when Mariah's daughter cries out to her in 'mindspeak' that she needs her now.<br /><br /> What follows is a short, but intense story about war coming, politicians pretending it is not happening, and a few patriots trying to keep their world safe.<br /><br /> My only complaint was in the length of the tale. It should have been much, much longer.</div> </div> <p> </p>
