***Sale price!*** Rome was supposed to be safe--or at least safer than 90% of the planet. That was before the local legends started using their magic to destroy the food supply. Considered one of Rome's experts on legends, mostly because she keeps surviving their assassination attempts, Jordan finds herself racing to find the culprits before they strike again. But legends wield powers that aren't documented, understood, or predictable. And Jordan isn't even a soldier. She's just some scientist unlucky enough to stumble over the local political mess. The chances of getting murdered by magic beyond her comprehension is disconcertingly high. But if this unknown legend goes unchecked, Rome won't survive the next few years…and Jordan doesn't have it in her to walk away from that. Book 2 in the Jordan Sanders series, beginning with Terrestrial Magic. Embark on this urban fantasy/post-apocalyptic adventure today!

Most sensible people avoid fire-breathing carnivores that prey on humans. But Jordan has built a career out of studying such legendary animals, creatures thought mythological until their reemergence in the world three decades ago. She and researchers like her believe that knowledge is the key to reclaiming the land they'd lost back then, when humanity retreated into designated safety zones.  But when the humans moved out, the legends moved in. They were the descendants of mythical heroes, inheriting the powers of their ancestors, and they weren't afraid of the monsters. Jordan never expected to run into a legend, but when a field expedition turns into a trap for her team, she realizes that one deliberately tried to kill her. It's a diplomatic nightmare the Roman authorities might happily sweep under the rug. But if Jordan doesn't figure out who attacked her and why, they could try again. Yet even if she does solve the mystery, what could one stubborn scientist possibly do to stop a powerful legend? Terrestrial Magic is an urban fantasy adventure set in a post-apocalyptic Italy and the first book in the Jordan Sanders series. 20 pages of bonus content included.Book 1: Terrestrial MagicBook 2: Natural SorceryBook 3: Predatory Power

"Possessing unique attributes and engaging internal conflicts, characters are the strength of this dynamic and imaginative fantasy." - The BookLife Prize Saig had always lived on the edge of acceptance. Unlike a proper daughter of the head family, she longed for the freedom of the open woods over the confinement of her home. It was enough to drive away the two people who should, by rights, have been her closest companions.  But her perfect, responsible cousin Auris--destined to be the city's headwoman and resentful of Saig's inability to conform--would never be her friend again.  And her surly cousin Trei--aware of how his foreign ancestry undermined his own standing in society--would always look at her as a reminder of their shared differences.  Until a series of mysterious disappearances forces all three of the cousins onto the same side. Driven to protect their city and prove themselves, they join the effort to hunt down the perpetrators. What they find is a trap designed to bring their society crashing down, and the power to reshape their city's future. There's just one problem--the three of them have always bitterly disagreed on what that future should look like. Start your journey into this young adult epic fantasy adventure today!
