Book Release and Giveaway

To mark the release of the final novel in Stephen Brooke's Mora Trilogy, WOMAN OF THE SKY (officially out on March 10), we are giving away the first book in the series, GOD OF RAIN, for three days only. Download it in EPUB and/or MOBI, depending on your e-reader of choice. The events in GOD OF RAIN follow after those in my Malvern Trilogy, but those novels need not be read to enjoy the adventures of warrior-turned-trader Hito through encounters with crocodiles, head-hunters, cannibalistic fairies, and a certain dancing girl.

The book may be found HERE

No strings attached, nothing to sign up for, but a review somewhere might be nice (assuming you like the story!). And do consider purchasing WOMAN OF THE SKY and the second Mora book, ARROWS OF HEAVEN.

Out on March 10, 2018, the latest from Stephen Brooke. This is the back cover blurb.

Arrows of Heaven Book Release

We announce the official release of Stephen Brooke's new fantasy-adventure novel, "Arrows of Heaven" for Sept 1, 2017. Available in print and ebook.

The end of every epic is the beginning of another.

Who was Teme? A noble girl, sister to the High King of all the Mora, and of an age to marry appropriately? Yes, she was this, but also a renowned archer, acclaimed by her people as a hero of the recent civil war, named in the epics bards sang across the land.

Warrior or woman? Was it possible to be both? Through intrigues and adventures in the realm of the Mora and beyond, Teme has one quest above all others — to learn who she truly is.

Coming Attractions 2017

Three books by Stephen Brooke in the pipeline for the second half of 2017:

The fantasy adventure ARROWS OF HEAVEN, second installment of the Mora trilogy is scheduled for a September 1 release. ARROWS picks up three years after the events in GOD OF RAIN and is told by Teme, sister of the High King of the Mora.

VOYAGES is a new collection of poems, many  with a nautical theme, all about the voyage that is called life. Expect release around the beginning of November (exact date to be announced). This will be our first book published under the Eggshell Boats imprint.

ASANAS is a mainstream novel set in contemporary Florida, revolving around two women, an art gallery, and a yoga class. We hope to have it available before Christmas; if not, early in 2018.

God of Rain Release

Today marks the official release of Stephen Brooke's latest fantasy novel, GOD OF RAIN. Available everywhere (or close to it) in print and ebook formats

Stephen prefers to call this book 'adventure with a fantasy element' rather than simply fantasy. GOD and its predecessors set in the Mora world recall the work of such masters of adventure as Edgar Rice Burroughs, with plenty of action and exotic settings but not delving deeply into magic or the supernatural.

More titles coming this summer and fall. Dates to be announced when we have them set!

K Page Brooke Site

We are teaching ourselves responsive design — very slowly — and put up a simple one-page, mini-site for one of the books, as we figure it all out! It is set up as a subdomain of our parent site, at kpagebrooke.insolentlad.com. Not linked up yet but we'll get around to it.

Bit by bit, we should get more of our online presence into subdomains, including Arachis Press, as we feel our way. It may not be responsive at first; the mobile redirects we use now work well enough and we have more experience with the process, but eventually we should be mostly responsive. By that time, maybe we'll need to learn some other approach altogether!

In other news, the print version of GOD OF RAIN (the new Mora fantasy novel by Stephen Brooke) has been approved and will be available pretty much everywhere by the target release date of March 13. We have copies coming from the printer for the occasion and should be getting the ebook versions up shortly.

God of Rain Release Set

We are pleased to announce a release date of Monday, March 13, 2017, for the latest fantasy-adventure novel from Stephen Brooke, GOD OF RAIN. This is the first of a Mora trilogy, taking up where the three Malvern novels left off, and following the narratives of some of the secondary characters in those books.

As always, there will print (paperback) and ebook editions. The blurb:

Hito had tired of war, of knowing he would never be more than the second to the hero Aranu. It was time he sought his own destiny, to leave fighting behind and seek more. Peace, he desired, and a wife and home. If a bit of wealth came his way, too, that was to the better. But was that what he truly sought? Should there not be more?

From the Mora homeland to the jungled valley of the Gurang, from a new life as a trader to that of a Kohari prisoner, condemned to be sacrificed to the Sun Bird, his quest carries him. And does he find love, as well? Perhaps.

In Teva, the God of Rain, must he seek who he is truly meant to be. In the end, it will be Hito himself he finds, in the first novel of a new Mora Trilogy, GOD OF RAIN.
