A seafaring novel that would delight nautical readers!(The Columbia Review of Books and Film)“The Sea Witch” provides a wonderful...opportunity to sail back in time to an era when...crossing the sea was a true adventure, and when men risked their lives for glory, wealth, and love.Originally written by Alexander Laing..., the novel has been revised and edited by his son, author David Bennett Laing, presenting a wonderfully improved text that [is] more palatable to the modern reader, yet diminishes nothing from the charm of the original.“The Sea Witch” offers historic fiction at its best. Rooted in true facts surrounding one of the fastest sailing ships in history..., the novel is populated by fictional characters, who are truly genuine to their time and place. The ship itself, a swift and beautiful American clipper [plying] the China tea trade and the California gold rush, is the pivot around which the lives of three brothers revolve as shipmaster (and his wife), first mate, and carpenter. Adventure, romance, and...greed, send them literally across the oceans. While the impetus might have been trade and profit, “The Sea Witch” whips up magic far beyond ports of call and cargo manifests. Bitter business rivalries and fiery romantic conflicts mix with the awesome forces of the sea (and human folly) to provide plenty of action and suspense, while the authenticity of foreign locales and the customs of [the] mid-nineteen century make for a lifelike reading experience that rivals time travel.“The Sea Witch,” at its essence, is a classic seafaring tale, enriched to a great extent by carefully researched details of the era’s shipbuilding, finance, international trade, and the men and women of the time, driven by bold courage that’s hard to imagine in today’s world. This novel would surely delight readers who enjoy great nautical books, from the true accounts of Captain Joshua Slocum and Bernard Moitessier to the fictional adventures of Herman Melville’s “Moby Dick” and Patrick O’Brian’s Aubrey/Maturin series. Highly recommended!(The Columbia Review of Books and Film)

Have you ever wondered why villains are what they are? Is a villainous heart instilled at birth, or do decisions and actions warp a good heart into a villainous one? Though she works as a palace maid, Serena is no ordinary mermaid. From birth she manifested the magical powers of a sea witch, just like her mother, Moira. But Serena does not want to be like her mother, cruel and selfish, so she rejects her magical powers. At least until her ever growing love for the unattainable Prince Triton pushes her to her breaking point. Just when it seems he’s taken notice, that she could actually win his heart, his mother, Queen Amphitrite, makes it clear her son will never marry a palace maid, much less the daughter of a sea witch with a seedy reputation. Serena’s dreams are slipping through her fingers, and she must decide if she is willing to embrace her magical powers and take her dreams by force. Magic could solve all her problems, or so she thinks, but at what price?

Song of Creation TrilogyMany heroesMany villains One adventureNoelle, Anna, and Kaidyn are three teenage siblings trying to cope in the aftermath of their parents’ divorce.

They make new friends and face old enemies in a breathtaking realm populated with elves, dwarves, wizards, and dragons, all the while trying to come to grips with the tragedy that has forever changed their lives.Along the way they encounter powerful magic items including the four used by the Creator to make the world: the sword, the hammer, the staff, and the grail. Featuring echoes of the works of Edgar Allan Poe and Shakespeare and resonating with the classic adventures of Robin Hood, King Arthur, Alice in Wonderland, The Wizard of Oz, The Hobbit, and Grimm’s Fairy Tales, this heroic tale of love, loss, and forgiveness will touch your heart.In the grand tradition of the fantasy trilogy, after establishing a rich cast of characters and introducing a number of subplots in Book 1 – Poe, the story builds and builds at a breakneck speed in Book 2 – Yegger, and comes to a memorable and satisfying conclusion in Book 3 – The Sea Witch. In addition to telling a rollicking tale, The Song of Creation Trilogy also operates on a deeper level, employing numerous literary devices such as foreshadowing, themes, and symbolism to pull off the greatest of all tricks: using fiction to help convey universal truths.
