The
Legends of Winatuke series is about the characters, some
from the modern world we live in today and others from another dimension in a
world called Winatuke. Winatuke is a place caught in a somewhat medieval time
warp where magic is the norm. There is an ongoing fight between good and evil.
The people of light known as Nimway from the kingdom of Valmora, each with
their own unique wings, fight beside the tribes and nations of humans,
including Gypsies, against the evil creatures from the Dark Isle, Lake of
Sorrows and other lands ruled by the witch-queen, Mahara.
It’s
odd how I became inspired to write this series. An afternoon in my beautician’s
chair, led to a conversation about all
things paranormal, magic and fairies. She told me I should write about a fairy
who loses her wings because she’s so sad. I really gave that some thought and,
although I didn’t write about fairies, I did become inspired to write about
creatures of light or goodness that each had a gift and a unique pair of wings
I named these creatures Nimway. But, should a Nimway fall into deep sorrow, his
or her wings would begin to fall apart and even disappear altogether and their
magical power along with them. One of the Nimway characters has been held
prisoner for years by the witch and, in his despair, his wings do disappear
along with his once awesome power. One of the heroes loses his wings from
Mahara’s cruel torture, but he doesn’t lose his power although the heroine
fears that he will.
Each
book can stand on its own, but it’s good to read them in sequence since there
is a common thread throughout that resolves in the last book. All books will be
available in all digital formats and in print.
