If you never have read any of my work before, I recommend starting with Chronicles of Ave, as it is a short story collection that contains a range of types of tales set in my world of Ave (featured in the Fires of Eden Series). It will definitely give you a good introduction to the kind of writing I do, characters, creatures, and my worlds.

Chronicles of Ave eBook Links! Available Today!

ChroniclesOfAve_600X400Today’s the big day for the eBook release of Chronicles of Ave, my new short story collection featuring tales set in the world of Ave, which is the setting for most of my Fires in Eden series.

There are six stories in all, including the novella-length “Winter’s Embrace”.  The stories are stand-alone, so you do not need to be familiar with the novels to get into these stories.  However, if you are familiar with the novels, these short stories will broaden your experience of the series, as many of them are about places, events, or characters that are referenced at some point in the series.

The print version will be out next week, at 328 pages, but for now Kindle and Nook are live, and here are the links with story descriptions below!

Official Synopsis:  Escape into the wonders of Ave in this first collection of short stories featuring the fantastical world from the Fires in Eden Series by Stephen Zimmer.

“Into Glory Ride” tells the story of a young Trogen Warrior who is called to go up against insurmountable odds when an Elven raid strikes his homeland.  The Trogens have only begun training winged steeds for combat, but time is of the essence and a momentous choice has to be made by the young warrior.

In “A Touch of Serenity” a conscript laborer working on a massive wall constructed under the orders of the Divine Emperor begins to hear ghostly voices asking for help.  His response leads him on a journey that will test his courage, wisdom, and compassion.

In “Moonlight’s Grace” a young man goes to help his people when a Midragardan raid strikes Gael.  He seeks to prove his worth to the chieftain whose daughter he loves with all his heart.

The novella-length “Winter’s Embrace” follows a warrior-monk into the depths of dangerous woodlands in the heart of winter.  There he will find his faith tested in ways he never anticipated, when he must help a forest witch against an enigmatic, immortal being known as the Undying.

“Lion Heart” introduces the heroic Sigananda of the Amazu people, who must confront things that transcend the laws of the physical world when powerful Wizards threaten his homeland.

In “Land of Shadow” a knight who is part of a band of Avanoran mercenaries discovers how perilous the mysterious Shadowlands are when they undertake a journey to locate a site to build a fortress.

A world of wonder beckons to be explored and fantasy enthusiasts are invited along for the journey in these half-dozen stories from the world of Ave!

Also be sure to take further adventures in Ave in the Fires in Eden Series, beginning with Crown of Vengeance, Book One!

 

 

Featured at Fourth Wall Friday at the Cabin Goddess

I’m on my way to Mo*Con in Indianapolis today, where I have the great honor of being a Guest of Honor. Looking forward to it very much! But I wanted to be sure to leave this link to a new mega-post I did for Fourth Wall Friday at the Cabin Goddess!

This theme blends the world of an author’s books with their own world, and this post has a serious theme that resonates strongly with the Rising Dawn Saga. I really think readers of my series will appreciate this post a lot, and for those that haven’t read the series, this will definitely give you a taste of some of the themes found in the books.
