Short Story Banner Feb 2013
Greetings!

Three All-New Short Stories Now on Kindle (And coming soon to Nook, Kobo and iBooks)

 

Now that Ice Forged is in bookstores everyone (and topping the Amazon charts on both sides of the Atlantic-thank you readers!), and the sequel is already in the hands of my editor, it's time to unveil new short stories coming each month to ebook!

 

If you like pirates, magic, vampires, and cursed objects, try my new Deadly Curiosities Adventures.  The first two stories, Vanities and Steer a Pale Course, are now on ebook-with more all-new, never-before-published stories to come.

 

If you liked my Chronicles of the Necromancer and Fallen Kings Cycle series and want more Jonmarc Vahanian excitement, I've got new stories just for you, starting with Raider's Curse!

 

Ever wonder how Jonmarc Vahanian became the most dangerous warrior of his generation? How he earned the bounties on his head? What really happened in Nargi?  And where he got that scar? My new Jonmarc Vahanian Adventures take you back to the beginning, and I'm planning to tell his story all the way up to where he meets up with four young men running for their lives who need to hire a guide.

 

And if you haven't grabbed Ice Forged, what are you waiting for?  It's in trade paperback wherever books are sold, and also on Kindle, Nook, Kobo and iBooks.

 

Sincerely,

Gail Z. Martin

More About Those Short Stories:
 
The Deadly Curiosities Adventures
This series of adventures spans over 500 years, from the 1500s to modern day as a small cabal of vampires and their human helpers battle supernatural enemies to find and destroy dangerous magical items and keep the world safe from dark forces. 

 

Vanities - Jewel thief and newly-turned vampire Sorren sets out to steal a priceless brooch possessed by an ancient evil before it sets the Black Dragon loose in medieval Antwerp.

 

Steer a Pale Course - Two young fishermen in post-Revolutionary America are forced to retrieve a deadly object from an ancient burial mound or face the vengeance of raiders who have taken their village hostage.

 

The Jonmarc Vahanian Adventures

Soldier. Fight slave. Smuggler. Warrior. Brigand lord.  If you've met Jonmarc Vahanian in the Chronicles of the Necromancer and Fallen Kings Cycle books, you don't really know him until you take his journey.

 

Raider's Curse - The legend begins. When sea raiders threaten the villages along the Margolan coast, young Jonmarc Vahanian risks everything to save his family
