A while back I posted some blurbs for my upcoming book.  These are to be used on sites that require a unique description.  I already got thumbs up on the Amazon blurb, but I want to get these a second look from people since a lot of new faces have turned up since the first time.  Here we go:

This is the action-packed sequel to Legends of Windemere: Beginning of a Hero, which follows the adventures of Luke Callindor and his friends.  Unlike the previous book, Legends of Windemere: Prodigy of Rainbow Tower takes the readers through a journey into Windemere instead of the action taking place in a single location.

After surviving his first mission and a semester at Hamilton Military Academy, Luke Callindor and his friends set out to escort the Serabian heir back to the capital city of Gods’ Voice.  Begrudgingly leaving his new girlfriend behind, Luke sets out along the L’Dandrin River and prepares himself for a gauntlet of traps set by the Lich.  It’s a journey that takes him from the bustling city of Gaia to the thief-ruled city of Rodillen and straight to the peaceful walled city of Freedom.

Joining Luke is a new ally and potential friend named Nyx.  This half-elven caster is the titular prodigy of Rainbow Tower and starts off her friendship with Luke by trying to blast him with fire spells.  Hot tempered, short fused, and more stubborn than Luke, Nyx and her incredible magic prove to be a powerful ally.  She is exactly the type of ally that is needed to help combat the magic of Queen Trinity, the cunning ruler of the chaos elves, who has been sent to help the Lich.  An unbreakable friendship and a devastating rivalry bloom as Nyx steps into the world outside of Gaia for the first time in her life.

Retaining the humor and action of its predecessor, Prodigy of Rainbow Tower puts our heroes through the physical and emotional wringer.  Luke and his friends will never be the same by the end of their adventure due to a horrible betrayal.  Nyx struggles to adapt to life as an adventurer and must learn to trust her life to those that she barely understands.  It is also here that the reader starts to get hints about the grand plot of the series and what the gods have planned for the heroes.

One of the most enjoyable things to write, and hopefully read, in regards to this book is the introduction of Nyx.  She is an incredible young woman with great power, a heavy burden, and deep scars from her past.  Even with all of her power and strength, an innate fragility grew out of the character as I wrote her.  It was as if her magic had been used to cover her emotional turmoil and setting out on her first adventure was forcing her to cope with her issues at a rate faster than she can handle.  For her emotional depth and the great scenes that I get out of her, Nyx was easily the highlight for me writing this book.  So, I really do hope everyone enjoys seeing her in action.

This is the action-packed, humor-filled sequel to Legends of Windemere: Beginning of a Hero where Luke Callindor and friends are pushed to their limits.  As difficult as his first adventure was, nothing has prepared Luke for the challenges that await him outside of Hamilton Military Academy.

After graduating from Hamilton Military Academy, much to Selenia Hamilton’s delight, Luke Callindor takes on the role of bodyguard for the royal heir of Serab.  Joined by Nimby, Fritz Warrenberg, Aedyn Karwyn, and Fizzle, the young warrior is excited to return to the road.  His excitement lessens when he learns that they are going to be traveling down the L’Dandrin River toward the capital city of Gods’ Voice.  Departing from Gaia, the largest city of Ralian, our heroes must prepare for a gauntlet of traps set by the Lich and his newest ally, Queen Trinity of the chaos elves.

Thankfully, Luke has a new ally of his own in the form of Nyx, the half-elven magical prodigy from Gaia.  Blessed by the gods with incredible magic, Nyx leaves the safety of Gaia for the first time and quickly tests Luke with her volatile nature.  More inclined to cast magic and ask questions later, the small group of friends must find a way to get along with their new ally whose scars run deeper than they can imagine.

Legends of Windemere: Prodigy of Rainbow Tower takes the reader on a tour of Windemere as our heroes struggle against goblins, demons, vampires, and a betrayal from one of their own.  By the end of the adventure, Luke Callindor and his friends will never be the same.
