My own quirky dark fantasy, Dragons of Dunmoray is one of the books in the sale for only 99p/99c
www.epicindie.net/summerpromo2...
3D render of the book, Sigils of Malice, featuring a magical, horned blue beetle with red eyes sprinkling glittering dust on magical technology lit by a blue gem. A thrilling science fantasy adventure Five stars! (Itβs actually 4.9 if you wanna be picky) Readers call it a must-read for fans of fantasy and mystery alike and those craving a seamless blend of the extraordinary and the perilous. At the bottom are simple representations of Thalia, the main character, waving to Frendo, the calygreyhoundβa massive beast with the body and antlers of a great stag, a wild catβs face and tail, and the wings and forearms of a giant eagle. Art by Rebecca Reyes & Elora Ladd
Complacency and prejudice warp souls into a cowardly creatures. In the name of love, Thalia must save hers.
