Are you curious about what I've written?
I casually mention in this blog that I've written five novels and am working on getting an agent and getting published. I very seldom talk about what I've written. So here's a list of my novels with synopses.
I will cover the ones that exist in the same universe first, in chronological order.
Gaia's Hands
The odd couple of Jeanne Beaumont, biologist, and Josh Young, writer, follow a threat to Jeanne's livelihood and a path of their own awakening talents. After calling forth a miracle at the collective Barn Swallows' Dance, they must fight the conspirators who would destroy it -- and possibly their lives.
Apocalypse
Laurel
Smith, a woman without a past, works as a laborer at the ecocollective Barn
Swallows’ Dance, unaware of her part in a 6000-year-old myth. Adam Lee is an
immortal Archetype who holds the patterns which allow Han Chinese men to
survive. He’s been sent on a mission to help Laurel find her legacy and bring
her memories back.
An
army assembles to kill Laurel to collect on a millennia-long vendetta. Laurel's
memory loss isn't an accident, though, and three dangerous Archetypes more
ancient than even Adam are determined to keep her in the dark. If Adam and Laurel
can't collect enough allies to stop the approaching army, they will build an
army to wipe out all women on Earth, and with them, all future generations of
humans.
Prodigies
Grace
Silverstein, an eighteen-year-old viola prodigy, flies to Poland to participate
in an international assembly of prodigies. However, her hosts have hidden their
plans to coerce the prodigies under a flimsy mask of hospitality. Grace’s new
friend and fellow prodigy Ichirou can influence people’s emotions with his
computer graphics, and they figure out that his talent is what their hosts want
to capture. Grace smuggles him out of the country with the help of his
chaperone and her mysterious accomplice, but their escape has not gone
unnoticed.
Back
in the US and under pursuit, Grace discovers her own talent of manipulating
emotions through her beloved music. The chase continues as both foreign agents
and Homeland Security close in on Grace and her compatriots, who uncover
a terrorist plot by the prodigy organization. Grace can keep herself and her
friends safe if she never reveals her gift but exposing her talent could save
many more lives. Making the right decision while avoiding capture may be the
hardest thing Grace has ever done—and could have long-lasting effects on the
entire world.
Whose Hearts are Mountains
In
Whose Hearts are Mountains, Annie Smith escapes the smoking ruins of her
university and heals in a remote Canadian town, where she hears stories about a
fair folk who help humans and then disappear. These tales resonate with the
stories her mother told her as a child, and she seizes the opportunity to
research the spread of these tales – until she comes home to find that the
United States has crumbled under sectarian turmoil.
Annie
chases the stories through a drastically changed landscape, and begins to
experience unsettling dreams and strange phenomena. The stories lead to an
oasis in the middle of the desert and a people who present mysteries. Pieces
click together, and Annie finds out that her identity is tied in with the tales
and with a frightening act of terrorism that only they can stop.
This next one is not in the same universe as the others:
Voyageurs
Ian Akimoto, Traveller, jumps through time from the
environmental catastrophe called the Chaos to 2015 Kansas City to help Kat
Pleskovich, time-jumping daredevil, solve the mystery of who wants to kill her
mentor. Soon their own lives are in danger as they piece together clues
involving everything from time physics and falsified records to multiple Kats
and gruesome deaths in Kat’s daredevil game Voyageurs.
Their search reveals that a rogue time traveller broke the
timeline at crucial points with a goal of winning Voyageurs with the greatest
stunt of all – destroying humanity. Kat and Ian must decide whether to risk
their lives toward setting the future right.
Enjoy and give me feedback!
