Crystal Beach - Crow Hill #1

Crystal Beach - Crow Hill #1 is the title of my next book. After a multitude of delays, it's finally close enough to release to mention it here. I hope to have it published on Amazon by Dec. 8th, 2014.

This story is set in the same world as my Merlin books (An Untimely Error series). But it starts approximately 75 years after the Merlin books leave off. Here's the tentative blurb for it:

What's a wizard to do when he's still being punished for a thirty-year-old transgression and the country begins to fall apart around him? Michael Hart doesn't know, either. So he's making it up as he goes along.

An old flame has contacted him looking for a place to go. She teaches at the only school for wizards on the continent and took responsibility for several of the students when the school was evacuated.

The country is falling apart, the Board's still punishing him for actions taken in his teens, and now they're showing a renewed unhealthy interest in him. Michael needs to be able to offer a safe haven to Rynn and the students, but he can't bring himself to ignore the problems of those around him either.

There are always more things to do than time to do them in and, of course, a man with a gun can pose a serious problem, even to a wizard.

I'll post a link here and send a notification on my mailing list when the book is available on Amazon.
