Guest Author Ron C Nieto


Grab yourself a high-octane paranormal romance
Ron writes paranormal and urban fantasy, and myth and folklore is her favorite sandbox. She loves taking an old tale and giving it a new spin, and her latest project is an action-packed adventure full of romance and magic based on Irish myth! Here’s a look at the cover and a peek at the blurb:

They say power makes monsters out of men, so what will an ancient artifact of near-absolute power make of a monster?
The race is on for Aisling. With her place within the Fianna in question, she must enlist the help of Ancient History professor Ronan O’Neill to make sure that the Spear of Lugh, one of the four Irish Treasures and reputed to grant victory to whichever side wields it in battle, doesn’t fall into the wrong hands. She just never thought that there would be so many “wrong hands” vying for it, or that the professor she had started to feel attracted to would have quite such a big secret to hide…

Book Review: The Weirdstone of Brisingamen by Alan Garner

Here is my book review of The Weirdstone of Brisingamen by Alan Garner:



A story inspired by a local legend in East Cheshire, England

I was quite excited to read this book, since it was set in my home county and an area with which I have become familiar during recent years. Unfortunately, I really struggled with this book. Perhaps the reason is that I am more interested in adult themes and paranormal tales at the moment. This novel is a fantasy story incorporating myth, magic and folklore, and it will be a treat for the right reader. It just wasn’t for me at this time, and I found it confusing in places.
