Updates to my Blurbs

Good morning. I hope you’re enjoying April.

There have been some updates to my blurbs. Getting them the right length is important, so that they’re not too long with boring, inessential information and yet not so short that they’re missing logic that ties all the lines together. I’ve tried to add doubt into my blurb ingredients in the hope it generates interest.

Please do let me know if any further tweaks are needed or if better words can be used.

  1. On a world of fortresses, gone is the age of barbarians when Aerol, their warlord, built his fighting force into warriors powerful enough to defeat any enemy standing before them.

    Long-dead enemies haunt Aerol’s mind – enemies that should have been vanquished. He must show them no fear, even if it means sacrificing himself. But when the kind and beautiful Hermena needs Aerol to save an order of scholars from death he’s soon conflicted about his plan.

2. On a world of fortresses, gone is the age of barbarians when Aerol, their warlord, built his fighting force into warriors powerful enough to defeat any enemy standing before them.

Now, with Aerol’s old friend bewitched, rumours of a dread sorcerer abound with the fantastical. Aerol refuses to believe the rumours – he cannot allow himself to, for the integrity of the fortress, but when assassination rears its ugly head he needs a plan.

The Fortress holds the key to Aerol’s salvation, if only he can find a way in.

Warlord of the Lonely Fortress – Preorder

Warlord of the Lonely Fortress by Alex James - Front Cover

On Majesty, the world of fortresses, floating platforms, and walkways, ages have passed of mana-wielding heroes and heroines fighting monsters and sorcerers, and of barbaric male warriors.

Warlord Aerol trained his best into organised soldiers, founded the Lonely Fortress, and fell in love with a half-monster like him, Inde. Then … Inde separated from him.

Now, Aerol feels the Lonely Fortress is no longer his. Assassination has reared its ugly head, in the form of snakes in a jar, and he suspects Inde is a traitor. On top of this, his old friend is bewitched. Everything points towards a dreaded sorcerer he refuses to believe is real. The mega-fortress, he’s determined, is the be-all and end-all of his hopes, his salvation. Only, no-one has ever entered it.
