French Translation of Dark Mage Coming Soon

A cover and synopsis for the French edition of Dark Mage has been posted on Amazon.

THE CRYSTAL CITY: THE PROPHECY OF AVALON

Adriane, Kara, and Emily have become the mages of Avalon. But evil creatures are joining forces to destroy the crystal city….

The quest for Avalon seems to be coming to an end. Emily, Adriane, and Kara must face their demons in order to reach the crystal city before their cruel enemies. But a terrible prophecy looms: one of the girls will fall to the dark side….

The paperback version of the French edition drops on 25 January 2023. Sorry, no word yet on an ebook edition.

French Translation of Heart of Avalon Coming Soon

A cover, synopsis, and release date for the French edition of Heart of Avalon has been posted on Amazon.

THE CITY OF CRYSTAL: THE HEART OF AVALON

Adriane, Kara, and Emily have become the mages of Avalon. But evil forces are joining forces to destroy the crystal city….

Adriane, Kara, and Emily have found some of the lost magical crystals that will lead them to Avalon. They must find the last ones before the Dark Mage and her ally, the Arachne! Unfortunately, a mysterious disease threatens the sea dragons of Aldenmor. And this time, Emily’s magic is not enough. In order to save the creatures and find two crystals, the healer must embark on an adventure into the heart of magic….

Notice that the Spider Witch’s name has been changed to the Arachne / Spider Woman (l’Arachnée) in French. The Arachne sounds like a Time Lord name from Doctor Who, and Spider Woman has connections to a figure from Hopi and Navajo mythology. Either way, it’s a neat translation.

The French edition will be released on 13 July 2022. Sorry, no word yet on a Kindle release.

French Translation of Ghost Wolf Coming Soon

A cover, synopsis, and release date for the French translation of Ghost Wolf is up on Amazon.

THE CRYSTAL CITY: THE SPIRIT OF THE FOREST

Adriane, Kara, and Emily have become the mages of Avalon. But evil creatures are joining forces to destroy the crystal city….

Dark forces have attacked Ravenswood, the sanctuary for magical animals. In the past, Adriane failed to protect Thunder, her bonded mistwolf. This time, she can’t fail: she must fight to save all her friends, even if it leads her down a dangerous path.

The paperback edition will be available on 19 January 2022. No ebook release has been announced yet.

News Gleaned from Comments on the voyager.world Instagram:

  • re: the animated series: @neosayo we’ve had a few setbacks on the Avalon tv series. We’re currently exploring several opportunities but takes sooo long to get answers [source]
  • re: details on Shadow Warrior: @avalon.web.of.fandom no flashbacks, center of the web shifted creating time ripples that overlap events from the past- portal travel is not just a matter of where you end up but when-Status: 1 2 & 3 outlined; manuscript 1 done; but they all need to be written out because of such a complex plot; also features a host of new characters in addition to the regulars who are aged up – [source]

In Tangentially-related News:

  • re: Hollywood Detective: @avalon.web.of.fandom it’s a cool concept, book 1 was more of an experiment; we have outlines for books 2 and 3 but no plans right now to execute manuscripts. [source]
