Okay, I admit to being a little slow and behind the times on checking things like this. I just noticed the other day that my book, the short-story anthology Chronicles of Riss, actually got a 5-star review – 4 years ago! Shame on me. Shame, shame. But it’s easy to not think about things like this when you’re busy all the time with other things.
Anyway, here’s a screenshot of the review.
5-star review for Chronicles of Riss (ignore the broswer tabs)
“A very good read, love all the adventures. Very well written. Highly recommend this book.”
Okay, so it’s not a very in-depth review, but still, I’m glad they enjoyed the stories. The review is very much appreciated, and I thank whoever in Canada left it.
You can get your own copy of Chronicles of Riss on Amazon by clicking here. And don’t forget to check out the original Adventures in Sorcery book, Kismet and Tell or the children’s book The Little Italian Traveling Chair.
If you’re bored being stuck at home in quarantine or self-isolation because of COVID-19, why don’t you try to escape for while and go on some fun, lighthearted Fantasy adventures instead.
To get things started, I’m putting my Fantasy short story anthology on sale to make things a little easier on your pockets.
Confronting evil sorcerers. Fighting monsters. Dueling metal golems. Searching for a sea monster. Hunting lost treasure. Finding a missing show dog. Competing in talent contests. Helping lost children. These are just some of the widely varied exploits that the young mercenary sorceress Marissa “Riss” Cobalt shares in this second Adventures in Sorcery book. Riss reveals how she ended up as a mercenary and chronicles some of the many adventures, ranging from fun to serious, that she’s had prior to the events of Kismet and Tell.
Chronicles of Riss will be on sale for $0.99 for the Kindle starting April 8, 2020 until the end of the month.
And although it’s not on sale, you can also get the first Adventures in Sorcery book:
Marissa “Riss” Cobalt is a young sorceress-for-hire known throughout the world not only for her blue hair and temper but also for helping people with their problems if the money is right. So naturally, when the nephew of one of the ruling lords of the city of Westover disappears while searching for a legendary treasure, Riss is called on. Since she’s on retainer to the lords, she has no choice but to accept, despite feeling there’s more going on than she’s being told.
Get Kismet And Tell in e-book or paperback from Amazon here.
If you need a new book for the kids to enjoy and help them escape being cooped up in the house, how about letting them go on an adventure traveling around the world and visiting different countries without even leaving the house.

Let your child join young Luca on his travels and learn a little about places like Germany, France, and Egypt. Get The Little Italian Traveling Chair in paperback on Amazon here.

Today is Indie Pride Day, a day for indie authors to share their pride – and their works – and to support each other. As an indie author myself, I thought I’d share a photo of me with my first book, the fun Fantasy novel Kismet And Tell.
Kismet and Tell and it’s “prequel” short story collection, Chronicles of Riss, are both available on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, and other fine online book retailers.
"Whatever you do, don´t stop writing, write only for yourself if that´s what you want". It might sound as nothing, but in a time in which I doubted so much about myself, it meant the world for me.
