By Kitty Lewis

Enter an incredible new realm of demons, predators, and heretics in the new Fantasy series “Legends of the Lost Tribes”

“The Colourless”

When Kandrina’s beloved older brother Perlak was taken by the fearsome Lightning Demons, she swore an oath to the gods that she would avenge him. But the Demons may not be as evil as the People’s temples say they are. They may not even be responsible for her brother’s death. Her tutor Remlik has another theory, but when Kandrina tries to explain it to her father, she is declared a heretic. The priests punish her, but she is rescued by a curious Demon, who takes her to their crystal city on the plains and begins teaching her that the two races are not so different.

“Beyond The Serpent Hills”

The old priests have fallen, the Demons are no more, but Kandrina has yet to find out what really killed her brother. Her need for revenge takes her and her former teacher on a perilous journey into uncharted territory. They must travel north, into the lands of the fearsome lizard men known as the Li Buqu. Meanwhile, the tribal lands are under attack from predators, and rising internal conflicts between the Vice-Chiefs threaten to disrupt the People's way of life.

As a teenager, Kitty was a slightly awkward loner; she never quite got the whole ‘socialising’ thing and preferred to spend her time buried in a book, or daydreaming about her own fantasy worlds. As an adult, she’s still a loner who spends her time buried in books and fantasy worlds, but she’s less awkward about it. When she’s not reading or writing, she can usually be found in front of her computer playing video games. Fair warning, if the lights are out, she’s probably blasting something to bits, so don’t sneak up on her!



  Kitty loves cats, and if it was up to her, the house would be full of them. As it is, she only has one cat called Lucky, who is a former stray. He wanders in, meows for food, tolerates being brushed and cuddled, then wanders out again until the next day. She will probably acquire more cats when it is practical to do so, though none of them will ever replace Millie. She would also like to keep snakes at some point, when she figures out how to keep them and the cats safely away from each other.



  She is fairly self-deprecating when it comes to talking about things she’s good at, though she will admit to a certain amount of pride in her zombie-slaying skills. She has also been told by several people that her books and short stories are quite good, and you can read some of them here. Her first novel, The 13th Kat, is available to read online, and the first two Legends of the Lost Tribes books have been published by Fast Print. You can order paperback copies of book 1 here and book 2 here, or visit the ebook store for digital copies.

About A Pilgrimage to Death

They murdered her sister. They threatened her church. Their day of reckoning is at hand. Cici Gurule is a freewheeling, progressive reverend who’ll stop at nothing to protect her flock. When she finds the dead body of a parishioner in the nearby Santa Fe National Forest, she’s horrified to realize the victim bears the same stab wounds that ended her twin sister’s life one year earlier.   Together with her detective friend and loyal pair of Great Pyrenees, she vows to hunt down the killer before she’s forced to officiate another funeral. Soon, however, Cici discovers her sister was on the trail of a deep-rooted criminal operation… and her death was no random act of violence.   Now that the criminals are out for Cici’s blood, the pastor must catch the wolf by the tail before it goes in for the kill.   A Pilgrimage to Death is a high-octane mystery thriller. If you like motorcycling sleuths, fast-paced action, and a dash of humor, then you’ll love Alexa Padgett’s edge-of-your-seat novel.

Can't-Wait Wednesday #14: Rule (Rule #1) by Ellen Goodlett

Wednesday, July 25, 2018




When I first started book blogging back in 2015 I starting to participate in  “Waiting On Wednesday”  that was a weekly meme that was originally created by Breaking The Spine.  Unfortunately Breaking the Spine is no longer hosting so I’m now linking my posts up to Wishful Endings Can’t Wait Wednesday. Don’t forget to stop over, link up and check out what books everyone else is waiting for.





  Here Is My Can't Wait Wednesday Pick For This Week:


Title: Rule (Rule #1) 

By Ellen Goodlett

Publication Date: September 11th, 2018 by Little, Brown Books for Young Readers 







Three girls with three deadly secrets. Only one can wear the crown.The king is dying, his heir has just been murdered, and rebellion brews in the east. But the kingdom of Kolonya and the outer Reaches has one last option before it descends into leaderless chaos.

Or rather, three unexpected options.

Zofi has spent her entire life trekking through the outer Reaches with her band of Travelers. She would do anything to protect the band, her family. But no one can ever find out how far she's already gone.

Akeylah was raised in the Eastern Reach, surrounded by whispers of rebellion and abused by her father. Desperate to escape, she makes a decision that threatens the whole kingdom.

Ren grew up in Kolonya, serving as a lady's maid and scheming her way out of the servants' chambers. But one such plot could get her hung for treason if anyone ever discovers what she's done.

When the king summons the girls, they arrive expecting arrest or even execution. Instead, they learn the truth: they are his illegitimate daughters, and one must become his new heir. But someone in Kolonya knows their secrets, and that someone will stop at nothing to keep the sisters from their destiny... to rule.

Magic, mystery, and blackmail abound in this sensational and striking fantasy debut.




I absolutely love books that have dark deadly secrets in the story and this one looks and sounds totally fantastic and so right up my alley to boot, plus I really love fantasy and young adult books as well!
