Death. That was the omen that the crows and ravens brought to Inkeri, a half-Fae wielder of the elemental power of Water.
Deep in the desert Idros Ahdreide, men had lost their lives in battle against a strange evil. When Inkeri ventures to investigate, she encounters Baron Rhodren of the Bois Argent and his troop of men.
Rhodren’s king commanded him to investigate the disappearances of two troops and a caravan at the desert citadel of Saet’Idros Archais.

Yet a presence watches their entry into the citadel, a presence more terrible than twisted sorcerers, their shape-shifting wyre, and a traitorous Dark Fae.
Both Inkeri and Rhodren sense the watcher, but neither anticipates the dire threat it represents.
How many will die before the missing are found?

If you enjoy elemental power battling twisted sorcery and cold steel clearing paths through magical monsters, then you will love the adventures in the Fae Mark’d World.
If you only need the third book in the series, here’s Venom of Dragons.

cover design by Deranged Doctor Design
Carved into the mountain’s rock, the citadel of Saet’Idros Archais is now the battleground between good and evil, elemental power and foul sorcery, and a sinister monster more terrible than a crazed Dark Fae.
Inkeri, Baron Rhodren and his men, and their new allies the Lucent Fae have defeated the sorcerers and their minion shapeshifters. Yet the Dark Fae brings more foes to the citadel, and the fight becomes desperate.
How can Inkeri and Rhodren win when evil’s battlefield is the mind?
Spells of Water was fun to write, but keeping everything fresh can definitely stump a writer. In the midst of chapters 4 and 6, I was firmly convinced I was stumped, but overnight the blockade was broken with ideas flooding out in the morning. Never say never is an old adage that is certainly true!
