Wife Publishes Latest “Orbs” Novel

My wife, who has published more than a dozen successful Planetary Romance/Fantasy novels, has just published her latest:  the concluding volume of the “Orbs of Rathira” Trilogy, Quest for the Heart Orb.  Your humble blogger played a very small role in editing this very exciting offering–I think it’s a great book for people who like space fantasy adventures told from a more feminine perspective than my own testosterone-soaked tomes.  I have never had an interest in the genre, but I have fun reading these books.  You can check it out on its Amazon page here:  http://www.amazon.com/Quest-Heart-Orbs-Rathira-Book-ebook/dp/B00L6L4G2A/ref=sr_1_1?s=digital-text&ie=UTF8&qid=1403467180&sr=1-1

The page for the first book of the trilogy, Quest for the Moon Orb  is here:  http://www.amazon.com/Quest-Moon-Orb-Orbs-Rathira-ebook/dp/B008XAJXFM/ref=la_B006D208TC_1_12?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1403467257&sr=1-12.

Wife Publishes New “Soul-Linked” Novel

My brilliantly creative wife, Kathy, who writes Adult/Romance/Fantasy under the name Laura Jo Phillips, has just published the ninth book in the Soul-Linked Saga, The Tigrens’ Glory. It is now available as an Amazon Kindle eBook and will shortly be available as a paperback and a Barnes & Noble Nook eBook.

Here’s the blurb. I like the blurb. Of course, I wrote the blurb (with significant editing by Kathy) so that’s no surprise.

Planet Jasan is mobilizing for war against the evil Xanti, enemies of all. As the warriors of Jasan prepare to strike across the immense void that separates the galaxies to end thousands of years of bloody conflict, into the gathering storm comes Warrior Princess, Gloriani of Ramouri, known as “Glory.” Stripped of her birthright for refusing to marry a brutal man who believes that a husband’s job is to break his wife through humiliating subjugation, Glory has fled to Jasan seeking not sanctuary, but information.

Within the recesses of her mind, Glory, a powerful Dream Walker, holds the key to recovering the Lost Clan of the Tigren, without whom the Jasani will eventually perish regardless of their efforts against the Xanti. The problem is, they’re trapped in a dream world, and not even Glory knows where they are or how to find them. Even as the Tigren introduce her to feelings of increasing passion and eroticism, Glory becomes more and more convinced that time is running out. She must solve the mystery of where they are, why they’re trapped, and how to wake them up so that they can be rescued. If she fails, they will die. If they die, so will all Clan Jasani.

The threads of the story begun in The Dracons’ Woman and developed throughout the volumes of the “Soul-Linked Saga” come together in this exciting conclusion to the saga. It will take the mystical gifts of all the Arimas from the previous volumes, the power of the Jasani Clans working together, and the unlocking of the secrets buried deep within Glory’s mind to save the Tigrens and, beyond all hope, for Glory to find the love she has dreamed of all her life.

This is the time foretold. The Jasani, the Tigrens, and Glory have a rendezvous with Destiny.

The Tigrens’ Glory is a full-length, 124,550 word novel, and is the concluding volume of the “Soul-Linked Saga” a million-word plus epic work of fantasy/science fiction/romance set in the 26th Century. Full of adventure, searing passion, aching emotion, and heart-felt romance, The Tigrens’ Glory brings the series to a thrilling and satisfying conclusion.

And here’s a link to the Amazon purchase page.

BTW, this is not the final cover. Kathy wanted to get the book published ASAP–a more artistic cover is in the works.
