Sinopse

In "West of the Sun," Edgar Pangborn crafts a poignant tale set in a post-apocalyptic landscape where remnants of human civilization struggle to survive amidst the ruins of a cataclysmic past. The novel unfolds through a richly woven narrative style that blends lyrical prose with philosophical undertones, exploring themes of hope, decay, and the enduring spirit of humanity. Pangborn'Äôs meticulous world-building and character development allow readers to immerse themselves in a universe shaped by both despair and resilience, creating a profound commentary on the human condition and the potential for renewal in an uncertain future. Edgar Pangborn, an influential figure in mid-20th century science fiction, often drew from his own experiences'Äîranging from his early life in New York to his service during World War II'Äîto inform his writings. His background in art and literature, along with his keen observations on society, provided a rich tapestry of influences that shaped "West of the Sun." Pangborn'Äôs unique perspective as a chronicler of humanity's battling spirit in the face of adversity colors every page of this nuanced work. This novel is highly recommended for readers who appreciate deep character studies intertwined with rich speculative elements. "West of the Sun" is not merely a story of survival; it is an exploration of what it means to be human, making it an essential read for those who cherish thoughtful literature that resonates with the complexities of existence.

    She's the most dangerous being alive . . . and the only one I crave. 
     
     
     
    I feel her across realms. Through the vast emptiness of space, weaving among the stars. She is the Queen of Violets. Powerful, shrewd, defiant. Utterly exquisite. Feared among her own and pursued by all. She is the Dragon Queen. 
     
     
     
    I was an ordinary MI5 agent before being thrust into the world of Dragons Kings, Fae, Reapers, and magic. But it was a world I soon discovered I was bound to by blood from my Druid ancestors. 
     
     
     
    The instant we met, I was hers. Forever. I would have ripped the moon from the sky for her. I would have razed worlds. Then she deceived me. 
     
     
     
    Yet, I can't stop thinking about her. Craving her. She's in my very psyche, like a fever that burns through my veins like dragon fire. Scorching and eternal. 
     
     
     
    When I sense a malicious danger closing in around her, I defy every rule to get to her. My love. My queen.

    Samhain Witch is a Short Story from The Hawthorne University Witch Series. 
    I absolutely adore Halloween. I love the vibrant fall colors and the fun and revelry. And Samhain (Sa-win) is a major holiday for witches because it represents our new year. It’s the time when the spirit world meets the living. 
    So I wanted to throw a Halloween party for my students at Hawthorne University. Since the Billington frat house wasn’t available, I planned a party at my place. But as Maddie sat smiling in our circle, planning pumpkin carvings and costume contests, a visitor from my teacher’s past appeared, in tears, beside our bonfire. She said she had been terrorized by a haunted house, and she was looking for the Hawthorne Witch. 
    And as I discovered more about her haunting, I found that, this time, I was up against more than witches competing for my power or blaspheming with left-sided magic. This was a primal evil. I had met the Samhain Witch. 
    Cadence Hawthorne returns in this stand-alone short story, which takes place after The Hawthorne Witch (Book III). It first appeared exclusively as a free ebook for subscribers to the author's monthly newsletter and on A.L. Hawke's website. 
    Content Warning: Samhain Witch contains profanity, sex, adult situations and, of course, witchcraft.
