The Call of Winter

The end of everything is near, and only she can stop it.

Since leaving the safety of home, Abagail has made a new life for herself. But dark forces won’t leave her alone, and she’s fled several times to save her life. Now, the forces of darkness turn their focus on Abagail’s new home of Agaranth where her friends and loved ones reside, and a crippling blow will herald the final battle of good and evil.

Tricked by dark gods, who now hold the power to unmake the universe, Abagail is without hope. Her old life is far behind her, her family and friends scattered to the four winds, and an exiled god has taken residence in her body. With the fate of mankind speeding toward the end of days, she must stop the dark gods’ plot, or all of life in the cosmos will be destroyed.

Rife with danger, magic, and gods, The Call of Winter channels aspects of great fantasy books into an epic sword and sorcery retelling of Norse mythology.

˃˃˃ How did you get into stories like this?

I didn’t always love teen fantasy books. My favorite book growing up (and to this day) is A Wrinkle in Time, but I didn’t have a love for reading at all. When I reached the seventh grade we had to read books. My teacher didn't have much in way of fantasy fiction, but she had a few. She didn’t care what books we read, so I filled my time with young adult fantasy I bought. She didn't care where the books came from, as long as we were reading.

˃˃˃ Who should read this book?

I know a lot of adults read teen fantasy books, and that’s awesome. There’s nothing too graphic in my book, and while there’s a tiny bit of swearing, I’ve read much worse. The real audience I was going for are those women out there who love fantasy fiction and those looking for awesome heroes, monsters, and lots of young adult fantasy. I find I have a lot in common with women my age, and my characters are typically of the female variety and just starting out in life, so that works. Honestly, these books could work for anyone.

˃˃˃ Are there any authors who've shaped your writing?

Oh yea, those teen fantasy books I mentioned? They were David Eddings, Mercedes Lackey, and an awesome fantasy fiction series called Dragonlance. I got lost in those pages, reading of wizards, and a dragon quest or two as well as all the magic and monsters! Mercedes Lackey's young adult fantasy really helped me through my teen years, struggling to accept myself as a young gay man. If it wasn’t for her works, things might have been very different for me. I found her just when I needed to.
