We have such wonderful plans for life, such grand designs for our existenec and the path we intend to follow. Yes, we often times believe that truly we can direct that road in which we shall walk, and the man or woman that we will become. But, those wonderful designs rarely ever rarely ever come to light as we foresee them. For Xea, life is pain. Life is hurt. Life is a secret that even the closest family members can never know. But, Xea isn’t the only one with a secret, and the time will soon come for the sins of the father, to be visited upon his young…And Xea will soon come to realize that those lovely stories told so very long ago… Were always More Than a Fairytale…
More Than a Fairytale Book 1: Xea’s Story is the first of four planned novels in the main MTaF series. In this first novel, the title character must learn to cope with a terrible trauma in their past while simultaneously finding the strength to forge onward and protect their family in a strange new world. Having inherited a blood grudge against the family name, Xea must battle against all manner of demon, monster and assassin in order to win freedom from the Other Side. Running parallel to this struggle is that of the family of five slowly being torn away from one another as each tries to deal with and compensate for their own pains and the strongholds in their lives.
The overall themes in this story are those of self worth (or a lack thereof), family, and exploring the emotional and psychological effects of abuse in a minor. The novel also explores how our decisions have far reaching consequences, and often ones that can hurt and affect those closest to us whether we are aware of it at the time or not.
Follow Xea, Carla and an entourage of spiritual warriors as they battle their way through the Other Side, and ultimately to freedom, and redemption.
Price: $15.50 for paperback, ebook edition to be added soon.
