"A masterful painter of words, D.L. Gardner's brushstrokes of prose bring to life a compelling fantasy tale that demonstrates the power of forgiveness and redemption in the aftermath of tragedy." - award-winning author Stephen Zimmer.

Fall of the Kings Erika continues a rocky relationship with Arell as they travel over the Nisi Sea, still haunted by her mistakes. Arell, determined to secure Cho Nisi's allegiance with Erika's father, oversees the elders in their healing of Erika's brother. But crisis strikes the kingdom when Barte son of Moshere's army invades Prasa Potama, orchestrated by the demon Skotádi. One by one, the men she loves fall into peril, and Erika alone must make crucial decisions for the good of her people.

"The Sword of Cho Nisi: Fall of the Kings is the sequel we deserve after the stellar first book. If you've been following the series since the beginning, you won't be disappointed, especially with an alluring dark element absent from book one." - IndieBook Review

Curse of Mount Ream With her husband in danger, Erika races against time to Cho Nisi only to discover that her mission entails something more dangerous than saving the man she loves. With Barte son of Moshere searching for his grandfather's journal, and the evil wizard Skotadi pressing the armies to escort him to Mount Ream, humanity's existence hangs by a thread.

The entire series is a rising star in a universe of fantasy favorites such as The Lord of the Rings, Game of Thrones, and even Tad Williams' The Memory, Sorrow, and Thorn trilogy. Gardner really knows how to write epic fantasy. ww.IndependentBookReview.com

Darkness Holds the Son takes us to a small village named Tuluva where Jareth, an unemployed mercenary, and his wife and two children are raising goats to sustain themselves. Things go well for them until the land-baron of Ogress raises their taxes, forcing Jareth to pick up his crossbow and return to the battlefield. Jareth has an even more pressing problem than keeping his family out of debtor's prison, though. His son Crispin has seizures that are caused by magic and if Jareth doesn't find the source soon, it could be fatal as the boy hears voices instructing him to kill his father. On Jareth's quest, he discovers that the same affliction is haunting all the children in the kingdom.

Darkness Holds the Son is first the story of a father struggling to save his kids and second that of a king hell-bent on saving his kingdom's future...An engaging tale filled with magic and parental love. - Independent Book Review
