Fantasy Books about Wizards and Magic

THE BOOKS
These are the books that I've written and published. They are available through the links provided below. I had fun listening to David dictate the stories to me and hope you have fun reading them. They are available in Kindle or, if you're old school like me, in paperback.
Another Typical Day
A young man, bored with his life, discovers a portal to another realm. In our world he is a typical gamer that knows everything about magic spells and things that are useless in real life. The world he discovers is a land of castles, Kings, Princesses and monsters. Magic hasn't existed in Eredwynn in hundreds of years but David finds that it works for him!
The magic system is simple, just as it would be in his games and he learns through some trial an error what works and how. He learns that his skills can be taught and he instructs a few young ladies to assist him.
Another Typical Day, Too
The continuation of David's story. Things have changed over time and David, along with his ladies, are tested with challenges the kingdom throws their way. A mystery group of wizards challenge the reputation of David's wizards by causing general mischief.
The King becomes a problem by asking David and his wife Isabel for something they won't give. They are required to bring in a force much more powerful than the magic at their command.
Not Another Typical Day
The past five years at Wizard’s Castle have been wonderful. All had been right with the kingdom and there were no car salesmen around. We had truly become a family and not a dysfunctional one. If we had a problem, we talked.
The only black mark on the last five years happened only a couple years ago. The Queen, my wife and her sister’s mother, had suddenly taken ill and died. Everyone was hit hard by her passing because she had always been a friend to the wizarding community.
James, The Crown Prince
Years have past in the lives of David and Isabel. The children have grown to become men and women. As it's time for the oldest, James to move to his position of responsiblilty he decides to wander and discover the world. He meets people and makes very close friends, the female type of friends. After he returns home his life seems to be in order but some old evils won't be forgotten.

Davie The Mage
Like my big brother before me, I wasn’t ready to be tied to a desk! Even if the desk was in a luxurious castle with maids and servants at my beck and call, it didn’t sound fun. When the time came for my brother James to be assigned to the Lordship of a castle, he took a trip to No Man’s Land and then across the ocean. Along the way he met a beautiful young lady and married her. He now has his castle, consorts, wife and children. I didn’t know if I wanted any of those things yet. I’d decided that Davie Stephenson, the son of David and Alba, was going on a trip of his own.

Seth, A Naiad's Son
“Yes mother, I’m awake,” I replied to the soft knocking on my door. It had happened every morning of my life, so I knew who was there and that my day had been planned.
“Five new novices have been accepted and are moving into the dorm. You can go down there and help with that, but don’t stay in the room with them alone. Appearance of propriety is very important. Two instructors are taking them to the range to give them a rundown on the basics. Lia will be there in case of accidents, but you could give pointers, like your brother James. Watch their magic and see what they’re doing right or wrong.”
“I’ll be right there. I’m just cleaning up a few things in here.”
“Don’t be too long or everything will be moved without your help.”
And that started another typical day for me.

Alec the Wanderer
Alain looked at me sideways. “Your name’s Alec, huh? Ain’t that the name of the King’s son that wanders?”
I nodded thoughtfully. “Yes, I believe it is. I wonder what kind of things he does when he’s on the road. Alain, you seem to know a lot about the royal family. Have you heard what that Alec does?”
“Well, I heard that he just explores the country and helps folks that need it. In fact, I reckon that he’d help a poor farmer haul a load of hay if he needed a hand. There have been stories of him giving money to poor farmers and beggars just because he can. But there are also stories that he likes to play with the ladies too. I’m sure if he were around, I’d keep a close eye that he didn’t get his paws on my sis.”

The Vengeance of Conner Prescote
I’d watched the instruction of scores of young lady wizards-to-be, and I was sure that I knew a better way. I believed that there was a way that would be much faster and easier than the clunky spell words that they were required to learn. Being right in my belief was a hinge on which my plan swung. These soft people, with their soft ideals and titles, their cozy castles and cute families, needed to be put in their place. Forgetting me was a mistake. I am Conner Prescote, and they would remember me.

The Kingdom of Treigiau Tir
The Dragons of Treigiau Tir
A young dragon suddenly finds himself on his own. For the first time in his life he is the master of his own territory, but he doesn't like being alone. He investigates a story he heard about humans and ends up befriending an adventurous young man. In their travels together they discover that many men and women in the country are held as slaves with the blessing of the crown. Their choice is easy, freedom for all. (YA)
Fergal of Treigiau Tir
I stopped in front of the king at a signal from the only reptile I'd spoken with and waited. The King looked me up and down. He transmitted with a telepathy more powerful than the others that I'd heard, but nothing like what I was used to. "So Ape, is it true that you can hear telepathy?"
I chuckled. "I was informed that it is impolite to refer to your kind as lizards, Your Highness. The same goes for calling humans apes." (YA)
