A collection of stories by Alydia Rackham
Three Heroic novels in one volume!
THE LAST CONSTANTIN
Christmas Eve, 1848. Young Quinn Campbell and his best friend Agatha have been kidnapped. Their captor, Dmitriy Gavrilov, is cruel, ruthless--and a vampire. Thus begins a treacherous journey through ice-locked Europe, toward a castle in the depths of Romania, and a mysterious ruler at the heart of a thousand-year war. Can Quinn somehow bring peace between the two factions by assuming his birthright, or will he and all he loves be destroyed in the fight?
“The Last Constantin” is the first of Alydia Rackham’s vampire/werewolf novels. If you enjoy Bram Stoker’s “Dracula,” Mary Shelly’s “Frankenstein” and the gothic works of the Bronte sisters, then you will love this.
BAULDR'S TEARS: RETELLING LOKI'S FATE
When young, solitary archaeologist Marina Feroe meets a beautiful young man with an interest in Norse myths, she believes her life has turned for the better. But the last thing she expects, when she sneaks after him into the woods one night, is that he is actually Bauldr, younger son of Odin. Days later, winter suddenly descends. Bauldr has been killed. Marina is the only one who knows how to bring him back—but to do so she must travel all through Midgard, with Hel’s wolves on her heels. She has no choice but to bargain help from the only one who will listen:
Loki, the Mischief Maker.
The one who murdered Bauldr.
TIDE: RETELLING THE LITTLE MERMAID
Young Galahad Stormcrane comes to a small seaside kingdom to investigate the loss of a Guardian of the Seal—only to find that this guardian has abandoned her post, and made a deal with a sea witch to become human. However, if the prince refuses to marry her, she will die, and the Great Seal will fall into the hands of incredible evil. For the sake of the entire realm, Galahad must somehow arrange a marriage between a royal prince and a mermaid who cannot speak. But what if his own guarded heart becomes entangled?
