New cover reveal: “Ashamet, Desert Born” by Terry Jackman

A desert prince’s love for his slave can become his salvation — or his undoing.

Prince Ashamet does not believe in love. But a gift of an exotic pale-skinned foreign slave unexpectedly turns his world around. The handsome Keril’s purity and innocence are unlike anything Ashamet has ever encountered in a grown man. Amidst the court intrigues and mysterious attempts on his life, Ashamet finds himself far too preoccupied with gaining his slave’s trust.

But is Keril’s love truly the salvation he seeks?  Or is the slave a sophisticated tool, crafted by Ashamet’s enemies to destroy him?

Ashamet, Desert Born   is a compelling debut, featuring adventure, intrigue, and romance in a rich fantasy world inspired by the magical settings of the Arabian Nights.

Here is what the critics say so far about Ashamet:

“A vivid, well-written tale that moves along at an entertaining pace.” – the British Fantasy Society

“Rich and compelling” – SFCrowsnest

“I will certainly be looking for more work from Terry       Jackman, who writes with such intelligence, emotional depth and subtlety.” – Mortal Words

And now, without further ado, the new cover:

LEX TALIONIS by R. S. A. Garcia reviewed by Caribbean Beat Magazine

“Written with an arsenal of tension-building armaments, and wearing all the hallmarks of a science fiction thriller that’s done its worldbuilding homework, Garcia’s first novel leaves readers eagerly anticipating a sequel. Lex Talionis sings a bloody song of both forgetting and redemption, and of the price we pay for a little tenderness, when least we expect to be taxed for our freedoms.”
