The last of the autographed books I'm offering in my
Winter of Wonder Giveaway is Farhi and the Crystal Dome, a collection of short stories by Daniel A. Willis.
Stories included in this volume:
Farhi and the Crystal Dome: A fun kid-friendly fantasy about a awkward teen to finds himself in a land of fairies, gnomes, and witches. Oh yeah, and elves.
The Nerites: A ghost story set at sea on a deserted cruise ship.
Charlotte's Passion: An alternate history about the love life of Princess Charlotte of Wales, daughter of George IV. Had she not died, she would have been queen instead of Victoria.
Nikita Saves the Empire: Another alternate history. This one based on saving Alexander II of Russia from assassination.
I can thank my great-grandfather for my love of history and genealogy. He entertained me as a child with stories about his grandparents. Then, as a teenager, I developed a fascination with royalty. Combining the two was a natural next step.
However, I'm a man of many interests: politics, astronomy, science fiction, wizards, and things that go bump in the night. I expanded into the realms of fiction in the early 2010s and have several books in mind to write. My first trilogy is well inside my comfort zone, merging history, royalty and fantasy. Next, came a present-day mythology-based urban fantasy. Next will be an alternate history that will re-shape the world as we know it.
