Pam Bainbridge-Cowan latest novel is available in both print and eBook.

 

On her return from Yetzirah, the magical world she and her twin sister Elena first visited as children, Elise discovers something odd.  A butterfly has crossed the barrier between the worlds and come back with her, but this is no ordinary butterfly. This butterfly was crafted of silver wire and sapphires by one of the pocket wizards of Yetzirah. It should not have been able to cross the barrier, and it should not have been able to fly without magic, yet it has done both of these things.

This event, and other incidents which follow, lead Elise and her friends to believe that the barrier between our world and Yetzirah is weakening. If the barrier falls it would mean the end of both worlds. The only one who might be able to prevent it is the Queen. To reach her, Elise needs her sister's help, but will Elena help save a world she no longer believes in? 

Yetzirah: The Pocket Worlds, is a high fantasy novel. According to Wikepedia.org, "High fantasy or epic fantasy is a subgenre of fantasy that is set in invented or parallel worlds. High fantasy originated with the writings of William MorrisGeorge MacDonald, and Lord Dunsany, and came to fruition through the work of authors such as J. R. R. Tolkien and C. S. Lewis..."

 

You can find Yetzirah on Amazon.com and Smashwords.com in print and eBook form, or purchase direct from the author by going to http://yetzirah.weebly.com/

 

 

 

 "Something in the Dark."

 

 

 

Based in fictional Ilaloona County, Oregon, "Something in the Dark" tells the story of Austin Ward, a woman coping with achluophobia, a paralyzing fear of darkness.

Austin believes she's coping well with her phobia, the result of a traumatic childhood incident, until she finds herself locked in a windowless room...and someone has turned out the lights.

Austin finds a therapist to help her face and overcome her fears. But her search for healing is sidetracked when those around her begin to die. At first too stunned to act, Austin eventually tries to discover the identity of the killer. But who is it? Is someone seeking revenge? Has a serial killer come to her small Pacific Northwest town? Or, has something sinister followed her from childhood, something she met once before...in the dark?
