STORM OVER VALLIA


Drak, Crown Prince of Vallia, Dray Prescot's son, was sore beset on three sides.  For one, he was leading an army of liberation against the usurper Alloran who had seized part of Vallia - and who was grinding Drak's troops down with blackest magic and most villainous mercenaries.

For two, he was the target of a marriage plot by an allied queen, whose forces he needed desperately.

For the third, he was in love with Silda, daughter of his father's loyal friend, Seg the Bowman.  And Silda was now in Alloran's camp, a black-leather swordswoman commanding the usurper's do-or-die Amazon guards!

Magic, mystery, treason, warfare and romance make a heady concoction - and before this adventure was over, Drak would have his fill of it all!

Come to Kregen, planet of the two suns of Antares, and join the excitement!

  • I try to maintain page numbers for audiobooks even though obviously there aren't any. I do this to keep track of pages read and I try to use the Kindle version page numbers for this.
  • Synopses marked with an asterisk (*) were generated by an AI. There aren't a lot since this is an iffy way to do it - AI seems to make stuff up.
  • When specific publication dates are unknown (ie prefixed with a "Cir"), I try to get the publication date that is closest to the specific printing that I can.
  • When listing chapters, I only list chapters relevant to the story. I will usually leave off Author Notes, Indices, Acknowledgements, etc unless they are relevant to the story or the book is non-fiction.
  • Page numbers on this site are for the end of the main story. I normally do not include appendices, extra material, and other miscellaneous stuff at the end of the book in the page count.
