The Sons of Alkaia: a novella of Etlantium
About this ebook
Alkaia, the komandiri warrior of Enyalia, has been exiled from her homeland with nothing to help her survive--all because she dared free the man Theron from certain death. However, she is not alone: the infant son she bore is with her and he is even more vulnerable than she. Now, she must find a way to use that vulnerability to turn the odds in her favor.
The question is: whose death will she have to exact in order to save her son?
Readers of Water Witch will find this background supernatural fantasy novella full of historical intrigue, enchantment, and old world mythology.
Faintly reminiscent of the ideal of warrior women of the Amazon, Sons of Alkaia takes the matriarchal system to the extreme.
The full series of stories from shorts to novels in the world of Sarum in suggested reading order is:
- Seeds of the Soul (prequel short story)
- Water Witch : Witches of Etlantium Book One
- Theron's Tale (a novella)
- Sons of Alkaia (a novella)
- Blood Witch Witches of Etlantium Book Two
- Bone Witch : Witches of Etlantium Book Three
- Breath Witch: Witches of Etlantium Book Four
Sons of Alkaia is book 3 in the Tales from Etlantium series: a prequel series to Elemental Magic. This new adult supernatural fantasy series is for women of all ages, but recommended for those over seventeen. Those readers who enjoyed Theron's Tale will enjoy the continuation of the story from Alkaia's viewpoint.
About the author

Her characters often find themselves in the darker edges of their own spirits but manage to find the light they seek.
She has been an editor, a freelancer, and a teacher, but fiction is her passion. She now blogs and writes and twitters. Not necessarily in that order.
