Hello my Freaky Darlings!
I recently got a copy of The Red Stone by Craig Smith, a fantasy novel. Craig is a fellow South African writer whose book is available internationally.I must admit I’m not a big fantasy reader, but I am looking forward to reading this one.
Here’s the blurb etc for The Red Stone:
Tennen doubted if he would be of much use in such a thing as a full out war. He was just a tavern boy, but his attitude soon changed as he started to be trained by Rimotar a wizard of Melin. Tennen was very unskilled and had a lot to learn from the second highest ranked wizard in the whole of Melin. On their way towards the city of Ramchester the capital of Melin they meet up with Lady Loreria the ambassador of Elfwood. She has been sent by the king of Elfwood to get as much support as she can from Melin. It was a war that threatened to overflow into Melin if it was not stopped quickly. Tennen wasn’t too sure how he was going to be able to help, but this didn’t matter to him, Melin was his country too and he wasn’t going to let it be attacked. Tennen wasn’t sure if he could survive a war but he did know that his life would never be the same again.
You can get your copy of The Red Stone on Amazon and you can find out more about Craig and his writing on his blog.
