June 29, 2020

Hello, dear readers. As we wait for the official premieres next month of my excerpt readings, I decided to upload a bonus excerpt reading installment from my Silver Quest miniseries. This installment, Battle for the Great Crystal , culminates the Quest for the Star Silver Shrine when the rest of the Guardian Sages are awakened as Shadow Lieutenants to battle the Dragon Warriors, but end up being purified and joining our heroines on the journey to the Whispering Woods, location of the Shrine. Hope you enjoy.
