Honor Gazette
April 2024
Welcome
March was tax time at House of Honor Books and, as you may have noticed, the tax man took our newsletter. That’s a better story than that our editor failed to make the deadline and is scrambling to get this one out. Better stories are what we’re about.
We would like to thank all our readers for the taxes we paid. It may sound strange, but the fact that we have taxes to pay means readers have been buying our books. While we try to help authors get started in the publishing world, readers are #1. When our authors go to their special place to write, you the readers, are on their minds.
New Books
Robert Borders’ sequel to Catch the Witch is now available in Kindle and Paperback. Lythe is still being relentlessly hunted by the Man in Black. Battling enemies old and new, she travels the country with her family, her best friend, a former teacher, and a Catholic priest. Will their combined force be enough to stop the man with the mad smile? Or will he make Lythe a subject in his dark army?

Baneshelm
Keshia C. Willi’s fantasy world introduced in Fire Tales comes to life again in Baneshelm. Magic is dying, and the world with it. Man has forgotten his past, but Aeddefa the Fay remembers, and she has returned to the land of Men to restore the birthright of the Fae. Now she must face her greatest enemy, Siodadel the False, who threatens to destroy all of Magic and the world of Fae. To conquer her foe, Aeddefa must raise the dead.
It was with some trepidation that House of Honor Books launched out into the world of audiobooks back in January of 2021. The reception our books have found has exceeded our expectations.
The same can be said for the reception given narrators Coley and Cynthia Bickford who had the daunting task of taking on, in midstream, the narration of our two-bestselling series. Be sure to take a listen to Cyntia in Wolf Moon and Hunter’s Moon and Coley in Death Stalks the Red River.
This is Jack LaFountain’s first foray into the realm of fantasy. Bryn Bou is a student at the Military Academy where his father, General Bou, is a living legend and the Commandant. Bryn has plenty of fight in him, but he’s no warrior and not the stuff of legend. While struggling with how to break the news to his father, he has a vision. Hearing of Bryn’s vision, the village seer, in defiance of the High Council, sends Bryn on a journey he may not survive, and from which he cannot return home.
