A WARNING TO OUR ADVERTISERS: There are some low characters who respond to classified ads with an offer to purchase advertised items with a check in excess of the listed price. The idea is to trick an advertiser into sending them their change before the advertiser realizes the "cashier's check" or "certified check" is a fake. These creatures use computers to generate many e-mail messages a day. Our readers and advertisers are too smart for this ploy, but we suggest you invite them to send you the check immediately via Federal Express at the highest rate.

BOOKS










By V.L. Stuart


He was constrained by amulets forged with dark magic.

Her bow freed him; her spells healed him.

When she binds herself to him as his apprentice, they begin a journey that will lead to places – and dangers – that neither could have imagined.

Available now on the V.L. Stuart website






Orb and Arrow:
Exploration

It takes readers on an adventure to the world of Darae where magic is real – and dangerous.

Twenty-two-year-old Brillar was expected to follow in her mother’s footsteps and become a healer, but headstrong and impetuous, she has other plans. Now a highly skilled archer, she’s forced to kill to free a Mage being held captive in enchanted chains. She has no good alternatives if she is to rescue the wounded man, but that is no excuse for a healer.

Releasing a Master War Mage from bondage, however, could get Brillar killed . . . or apprenticed. When Master Elden insists on the latter, Brillar embarks on a journey not of her making. When it ends badly, she insists on taking on the exploration of the Wild, where a new and more dangerous quest awaits.
