This Would Be Paradise Book 1

BY THE EDGE OF THE SPEAR BOOK 1

BY THE EDGE OF THE SPEAR is a saga of Africa, a tale of conflict and love, unbreakable bonds, magic and the wonder of the African experience. It follows the mighty deeds of several heroes and heroines. The story is set 300 hundred years ago in East Africa where three communities are in conflict. The Maarati are pastoralists while the Anyaga are farmers. The two have had an uneasy co-existence with regular feuding for many years. Then enter the third force, the Nkolwane, who are sweeping everything in their path as they expand from the south, using both wizards (called Innaxzi) and warriors. The story follows the adventures of our hero Kiama, a youth who, though quite weak in warrior skills, is nevertheless quite strong in the arcane arts, something that he doesn’t know about until he is “awakened” by an old woman. The Maarati and Anyaga communities ascertain through their seers that there is a community from the south that is destroying all other communities in their path. They decide to unite their forces to combat this common threat. Kiama is one of the few who will have an intimate but painful knowledge of the southern enemy early on. The two communities marshal their might both arcane and force of arms to counter their enemy. We have Muniu and Runo of the Anyaga, mighty warriors with something to prove, and then there’s Lerionka, regiment commander of the Maarati and his beloved and beautiful Ntalei, their love beset by so many obstacles. There is Lengoibon, also regiment commander and a vicious rival of lerionka, there is Mukungu, a crafty, evil and cunning elder of Anyaga. Need I mention Kui, beautiful, proud, and oh so gifted lady of the Anyaga, Uloziba the stunningly beautiful Innaxzzi spy and scout of the Nkolwane, Wangari seer of Anyaga, and Samute the Oloibon of Maarati, each unique and powerful. This tale has not been told. This tale will now be told. This tale will keep you riveted to your seat. We promise you that.

The Enthralled Hero: Primus Book 1

currently restructuring the book Lord Caius Bellona finds himself thrust into a world of political intrigue, ancient pacts, and supernatural forces as he grapples with the legacy of his noble lineage. As the scion of House Bellona, Caius navigates the complexities of courtly life and familial ties, all while uncovering long-hidden secrets that threaten to unravel the fabric of his reality. Amidst the opulence of the Morn Empire, Caius encounters Emperor Galen von Meynard, a seemingly ageless ruler bound by dark pacts and immortal blood. Through his interactions with Galen and his own father, Arminius Bellona, Caius learns of the intricate web of alliances and betrayals that have shaped the destiny of their empire. As tensions escalate and ancient rivalries resurface, Caius finds himself embroiled in a conflict that spans nations, pitting him against his own half-brother, Leonius Blade, and the sinister forces of the Divine Order. With the fate of his family and kingdom hanging in the balance, Caius must confront his own identity and embrace the weight of his legacy as he journeys into the heart of darkness. Along the way, Caius grapples with themes of duty, honor, and sacrifice, as he confronts the demons of his past and forges unlikely alliances in the face of overwhelming odds. From the glittering halls of the imperial court to the shadowy depths of the Melizas Forest, Caius's quest for truth and redemption propels him ever forward, towards a destiny that will shape the fate of nations. This is my first novel and hopefully the start of my series of books that take place in the world of the Primus. The series will be more like memoirs of the characters lives in the Primus rather than your typical novel. Hopefully once this book finishes and, if enough interest is shown, I will begin book two, the story of Emperor Galen Von Meynard.

KILLER Book 1

Reina Carlo was forged by the Stingers, a shadowy organization that raised her to be a weapon. Her memories of a family—a mother’s face or a father’s embrace—were long lost, replaced by the harsh discipline and ruthless training of her surrogate family. To her, the Stingers were everything, until betrayal shattered the fragile foundation of her loyalty. Now, Reina walks the streets as the hunter, her mission deeply personal. A man who dared to strip away her last shred of innocence must face the consequences. Her scars are tools, her training a guide, and by sunrise, her vengeance will be complete. But each kill leaves a stain on her soul, no matter how she rationalizes it. She tells herself the trade is fair: she removes monsters, and the world lets her survive another day. Redemption and forgiveness don’t belong in her world—they are luxuries for those unbroken by life. Yet the nightmares persist, whispering of a stolen past and a family that might still exist. Did they abandon her, or did they think her lost? These thoughts claw at her resolve, forcing her to confront a truth she can’t bury: forgetting isn’t the same as letting go. Her pact with Marco Alessandro—a powerful, calculating man—only adds to her turmoil. Their marriage of convenience grants her the resources to find her family and avenge her past. But Marco’s unrelenting gaze and quiet intensity break through her defenses, challenging the walls she’s built. As vengeance, love, and identity collide, Reina faces a choice: cling to the darkness she knows or risk everything for a future she can’t predict. In this world of shadows and betrayal, Reina Carlo fights not just to survive—but to discover who she truly is.
