About

I am a happily married, self-published author and follower of Christ.My goal in this life is to write compelling fiction that isentertaining but that also portrays the power of redemption and theovercoming of evil.

My work can be seen as science fiction andfantasy, but that’s not really calling it for what it is. It isChristian fiction but it is edgy. It is dark at times and it is hopefulat others. I love to explore the deepest strands of human emotion.

Mystories are filled with heroes and villains, time travel and galaxies,murder and rape, love and war. My exploration of redemption and of goodovercoming evil will sometimes find me at controversial themes in mywork, but I will always write what I was always meant to write.

Description

<p><span style="color:rgb(15,17,17);font-family:'Amazon Ember', Arial, sans-serif;font-size:14px;">First, he led his own uprising. Then he captured a forsaken king. Henry had no intention of taking the crown for himself; it was given to him by popular acclaim. Alas, it didn't take long to realize that that having the kingship was much less rewarding than striving for it. Only three months after his coronation, Henry IV had to face a rebellion led by Richard's disgruntled favorites. Repressive measures led to more discontent. His own supporters turned against him, demanding more than he could give. The haughty Percies precipitated the Battle of Shrewsbury which nearly cost him the throne—and his life.</span><br style="color:rgb(15,17,17);font-family:'Amazon Ember', Arial, sans-serif;font-size:14px;" /><span style="color:rgb(15,17,17);font-family:'Amazon Ember', Arial, sans-serif;font-size:14px;">To make matters worse, even after Richard II's funeral, the deposed monarch was rumored to be in Scotland, planning his return. The king just wouldn't stay down and malcontents wanted him back.</span></p>

Story Behind The Book

Reviews

<div style="font-family:'yui-tmp';" class="cc29"> <div><span style="color:#111111;">&quot;My expectations were blown away when I started reading this book. The story line is absolutely captivating. It is refreshing to read a science fiction book with a christian background that doesn't come off corny. By far this is a must read.&quot; </span></div> <div><span style="color:#111111;">- Terry R.

I purchased your book with a little skepticism. I finally got around to reading it. I started this week and finished it today. It is one of best books I have read. I think you are going to have a great career as a excellent author and is was a great privilege to meet you. The suspense and plot is one heck of a page turner. I just loved the book. I cannot wait for the next is this series.&quot; </span></span></p> <p style="margin:0in 0in 0pt;" class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#111111;"></span> <span style="color:#111111;"><span style="color:#111111;">- Peter H.

I was able to dive right in. Your descriptions are colorful and create a nice fictional world that is seamless. It just works very well. I truly believe that if your name were to get out there enough you would be able to compete with the big boys.&quot; </span></span></p> <p style="margin:0in 0in 0pt;font-family:'yui-tmp';" class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:#111111;"></span> <span style="color:#111111;"><span style="color:#111111;">- Tracy Hayes</span></span></p>
