This past Sunday, I had the honor of participating in a Harry Potter birthday celebration at the Caramel Crisp Corner in Oshkosh, Wisconsin. For those of you who don’t know, this fine establishment is a combination bakery, café serving coffee drinks and ice cream, gift shop, and bookstore – i.e. a few of my favorite things manifested under one roof – all in one convenient location. I would highly recommend the Caramel Crisp Corner to anyone passing through Oshkosh. For those with an interest in aircraft, the annual EAA AirVenture event also wrapped up while I was in the city.

The event was so much fun! There were owls and snakes! Build-your-own-bookmarks with Elle Binder! And butterbeer – yum! I met and visited with quite a few excellent human beings, families with children, cosplay enthusiasts, and young people who love fantasy. I sold more copies of Wyldling Snare than I anticipated, which was icing on an already fantastic cake.

Steal the Morrow by Jenelle Schmidt

http://mybook.to/stealthemorrow

The city may be dangerous, but it holds his only hope…

Abandoned on a remote highway after bandits murder his parents, young Olifur finds safety with Fritjof. The gruff woodsman teaches him and other orphans to live off the land. When Fritjof falls ill, Olifur will risk everything to save his mentor—even travel to far-off Melar seeking a doctor.

However, the city of Melar is more perilous than Olifur imagined, and doctors aren’t cheap. His quest leads him first to a hazardous job working on the elevated trains high above the city. But the dangers in the clouds are nothing compared to those on the ground. Olifur soon finds himself ensnared in a web of professional thieves, and he must think fast if he is to survive the day and bring the much-needed aid to Fritjof before it is too late.

Schmidt reweaves Charles Dickens’ “Oliver Twist” into an exciting tale of integrity and perseverance in this gaslamp-fantasy adventure.

The Witch’s Curse by J.F. Rogers

Colleen must face her fears to free those under the witch’s curse… or remain trapped in her nightmare forever.

Colleen helped free the people from the King’s Curse. Now they blame her. Few want to see her on the throne. Most want her dead. She must flee to Seelie Clos to seek Queen Rhiannon’s help.

But that means crossing the Divide…

Without wards…

Once inside, all fall prey to the witch’s curse. The only way out is to kill her. Many have tried. None have succeeded.

But if they fail, they’ll remain trapped in the Divide forever.

If you enjoy strange worlds where nothing is as it seems—with doomed elves, deceptive fae, playful dragons, and other unusual creatures, in a frightening world where you can’t trust what you see—join Colleen in this Christian fantasy, the second installment of J F Rogers’s Cursed Lands trilogy.
