A Brief Synopsis of There Comes A Prophet:
For a thousand years the world has been peaceful thanks to the magic of the ruling vicars. Now a threat lurks from a violent past. Wizards have hidden their sorcery in a place called the keep, and left a trail of clues that have never been solved.
Nathaniel has grown up wanting more, but he’s never been willing to challenge the vicars – until his friend Thomas is taken for a teaching, a mysterious coming-of-age ritual. Thomas returns with his dreams ripped away. When Orah is taken next, Nathaniel tries to rescue her and is imprisoned in the Temple City. There he meets the first keeper of the ancient clues. But when he seeks the keep, what he finds is not magic at all.
About the Author:
The urge to write first struck when David was working on a newsletter at a youth encampment. It may have been when lightning flashed at sunset followed by northern lights rippling after dark – or maybe it was the editor, a girl with eyes the color of the ocean. But he was inspired to write about the blurry line between reality and the fantastic.
What People Are Saying About There Comes A Prophet:

“The trick is to create a deftly paced story with well-rounded characters on a journey that takes a reader along for the ride. David Litwack accomplishes this in masterful fashion…Past masters in this area are C.J. Cherryh, Andre Norton, Gene Wolfe, and Roger Zelazny. Litwack has earned a seat at their table.” – ForeWord Clarion Reviews

A Little About Mary Baker and The Eye of the Tiger:
Mary Baker is bullied by a mother who hates her and her mother’s boyfriend is a redneck plumber with a big gut. It’s only the mysterious happenings that keep her life fun and interesting. Like the anonymous gifts that come in the mail or the flocks of black birds that follow her. Then one day, a death and a mysterious, magical stone with symbols on it, called The Eye of the Tiger, bring her great wealth and a new life attending a school of white magic.
About the Author:
D.M. Cherubim was born in Duluth, Minnesota, a twin city on the shores of the mighty Lake Superior. Cherubim was an award-winning political, government and environmental journalist for two decades. Cherubim’s stories ranged from interviews with U.S. presidents to Disneyland tourists dressed like Mickey Mouse. In 2003, she became very ill and quit feeding the newspaper beast. In 2005, after “redlining” in a hospital bed, she had an experience of God in a bright light. When she returned to her body, she felt a new purpose for being here. Doctors at the time gave Cherubim less than three months to live. Since then, Cherubim has had a miraculous recovery. Cherubim has been working on her books from some of the most inspiring and spiritual places in the world, including southern California, Hawaii, and now, south Florida.
Some Praise for Mary Baker and The Eye of the Tiger:
“Magic, some religion, and gratitude to a higher power are what make the story rare and intriguing. I feel that D.M. Cherubim writes about Mary’s unfortunate abuse situation in such a straightforward manner that it genuinely grasps the reader’s attention… although the character of Mary Baker is fictional, she could be any child, anywhere in U.S.A. …I am sure “Mary Baker and the Eye of the Tiger” is a great book to read for children, preteens as well as young adults and even adults.” – Sylvia
“In a breezy writing style, Cherubim brings readers into Mary Baker’s universe where a bright cockatoo named Busby steals expensive jewelry, and there’s a magical stone, the Tiger’s Eye, that can make its owner wealthy beyond imagination.” –Michael Thal
“I throughly enjoyed reading Mary Baker and the Eye of the Tiger. There’s something about this book that is just magical. Granted, it is about magic, but it is so much more than that. This book grabs you the instant you begin reading it, and takes you for a fun ride! Read it. You won’t regret it.” –Michael Hall

About the Author:
Elisabeth Staab is a member of the Romance Writers of America and active in her local sub-genre chapters. She still lives with her nose in a book and at least one foot in an imaginary world. She believes that all kinds of safe and sane love should be celebrated but she adores the fantasy-filled realm of paranormal romance the best. She lives in Northern Virginia with her family and one big scaredy cat, where she loves to spend time with good friends, go dancing, and sing off-key in her kitchen (when she isn’t making characters fall in love, that is).
What Fans Are Saying About Prince of Power:
“Staab’s strong sophomore effort continues the dark fantasy romance series begun with King of Darkness.” – Publishers Weekly
“This is an action-packed, half-urban fantasy/half-romance with a meaty plot and a lot of characters” – RT Book Reviews
