Vann is a Voiceless, robbed of his ability to do magic by an accident in his youth that scarred his face and ruined his vocal chords, consigning him to a second-class life as a palace servant. One day, however, he makes a shocking discovery - a hidden chamber under the library with a forbidden instrument concealed within: a guitar. At a touch, he unleashes the spirit of Rorzan Jetta Diavolo, the former rebel leader who invented a powerful new form of magic. A magic known as heavy metal... With no other options, Vann is made to leave his life behind and flee, guided by the ghost in the guitar. But even as he forms new relationships and learns to perform magic again, those who would see him dead are hot on his heels. From the mind that brought you the Adventures of Avery Avedaan comes a sexy new fantasy series! Echoes is a 47,000 word novella about the awesomeness of heavy metal in a strange land about to have it's face rocked off. Hot, heavy and totally out of this world. less

Though victorious in thwarting their pursuers, Vann and his friends are still in a precarious position. Outlaws all, they board a ship bound for the wild and mysterious Eastern Continent, where Rorzan once raised an army to fight for the freedom of all, regardless of their ability to perform magic or not. Their journey will take them from the mist-shrouded aeries of the harpy clans to the deep forests of the centaurs and satyrs, all the while with new allies and obstacles in their path... moreThough victorious in thwarting their pursuers, Vann and his friends are still in a precarious position.
