Artificial Selection: Book One
Modern civilization has disintegrated.
The technological advances of mankind have flourished beyond expectations and have escaped the controlling hands of the human race. Cloned humans and genetically engineered creatures prowl the lands, pushing the earth over the edge to a third World War.
Four centuries later, the world has regressed to a feudalistic state, unaware of its advanced past. Now, kingdoms live in fear of mutated “demons,” of shadowy forests, and of frosts destroying their spring crops. It is a land where only the secret of society’s past is known by a select few—and those few seem to have their own agenda on the upcoming successions of thrones.
Nadia, the eldest princess of Damewood, flees for her life after her castle is attacked by an underground cult bent on bringing society back to its “roots.” Disguising herself as a knight, she joins a hunting party along with her best friend—a demon horse with his own dark past—to put an end to the massacres and retrieve a stolen key that will unlock the cult’s mysteries and the history of her people.
Artificial Selection is the story of a young girl from a land that turns its back on the ideas of race, country, and technology, and is thrown into the midst of these issues with no warning or protection save her sword and trusty steed.
PRAISE FOR THE NOVEL:
“…I honestly cannot say enough good things about this book, or its author… an action-packed thrill ride; believable, lovable characters; and a future that is not only entrancing, but uniquely envisioned and beautifully integrated. I wish all debuts were this good.” Read the full review here
—Front Street Reviews
“…nothing like I have ever read…the story slips down into a unique whirlwind ride of action and suspense… the tension was so accurately splayed out it could have been cut with a knife. In a genre that is often void of developed dynamic characters…”
—Shane Moore, author of the Abyss Walker Series
“One heck of a story with a fabulous setting, a fantastic futuristic and dark background and supporting characters that really made me cringe and gasp when one of them was hurt or killed. It’s a pretty fast-paced story that I often found hard to put down once I started reading…”
—Rae Lindley, author of Cimmerian City and The Eye of Alloria
“The characters are unique and refreshing… and the fast-paced plot will keep you guessing ‘til the very end. And, speaking of the end—wow. I can honestly say I never saw it coming! What a very intriguing start to the series—I can’t wait to see how the story progresses over the course of the next two books.”
—P.G. Forte, author of the L.A. Love Lessons and Oberon Series
“An action-packed novel that creates a believable fantasy world out of a compelling science fictional future. Though the story starts out as a simple quest, it quickly becomes apparent that much more is going on than meets the eye and I was pulled through to a conclusion that I found both satisfying and left me wanting to see what happens next.”
—David Lee Summers, author of Vampires of the Scarlet Order and Editor of the anthology, Space Pirates
“The story is a tantalizing mixture of mystery, science fiction and medieval fantasy with plenty of action and suspense to keep your heart pounding… keeps us riveted to the very end as the story unfolds and the mysteries behind the real purpose of the ocarina and the motives of all those who hunt for it are revealed.”
—V.L. Jennings, author of The Alien Mind and Visionary from the Star
Cells of Time: Book Two
Surviving the final battle at Ferrington Pass after her quest to retrieve the fabled Whisper and restore order to her kingdom, Princess Nadia must now accept her new existence as one of the outcast “demons ” and connect with allies old and new to help Andrew take back his place on the throne.
But with the Ordi Ex Machina in control, things get complicated with the sudden rise of technology and growing military threat of the kingdom of Krill in the shadow of the coming war.
In order to bring the surviving kingdoms together, Nadia must help her allies—as well as herself—to abandon their beliefs of society and the world around them, and join forces with the creatures they had originally sworn to destroy.
Deception, adventure, and tests of loyalty and friendship await those few brave enough to stand together against an ominous empire, as well as the truth behind what it really means to be human.
PRAISE FOR STONES OF TIME:
“… perfect blend of future, past and present that keeps the characters, and reader, in a whirlwind of action, suspense, and even a little romance thrown in to brighten an otherwise bleak world… This series shows us that there is a new force to be reckoned with on the fantasy playing field, and that force is Danielle Kaheaku.”
—Thomas Morton, Front Street Reviews
“This was an awesome read that I daresay enjoyed even better than the first book… The beauty in this story not only lies within the depth and complexities of the characters but in the detail of this future world… I’m definitely looking forward to seeing how the series is tied up as the final confrontation looms and the characters begin to settle with each other and in their home to prepare for war once again. ”
—Rae Lindley, author of A Kiss of Ashen Twilight
“…The characters are engaging and unusual and the fast-paced plot is compelling and full of surprises… perfectly timed and leaves readers more anxious than ever for the release of the third and final book. What appealed to me most about this book was the ever-evolving relationships between the characters, rare for a book where so much of the emphasis is on the non-stop action.”
—P.G. Forte, author of the L.A. Love Lessons and Oberon Series
“… A great read and I’m looking forward to book three, with hopes that it’ll be just as good and the characters will finally realize their goals and the secrets left to be revealed won’t be too calamitous to their overall futures. Keep ’em coming, Erin!”
—Toni V. Sweeney, Author of Blood Sin
