In order to be a priestess I have to first successfully raise a zombie, make it do my bidding, and then tuck it back in for the eternal dirt nap it was supposed to have to begin with.

She currently resides in South Carolina with her children and a very wild lion-head rabbit named Mr. Fuzzy Bumpkins.

Christine's first book, Birthrights, is now available for purchase. The second book in the Awakening Trilogy, Revelations, is due out in Sept. 2011.

    HORRIBLE!

    This should have been a free book.... it was very, very short and story line was ridiculous. They should have 0 stars options but instead i have to give it one. I always read the free books and the cheap ones too because they are always good but this was just terrible. Don't waste your money!!!! I think the people that gave it a good review did it on purpose to make people buy it and waste their money like they did or they are related to the writer in some way.

    Great start for a short story series.

    I am not your typical "Zombie" fan but that is why this short story appealed to me. I wanted to get a taste of what Zombie stories are like. And if this story is any indication I think I will enjoy more Zombie and the magic of voodoo type stories. Certainly from this author. I'm pretty sure I will read this entire series as it comes out. What I liked: The protagonist has a sense of humor and is as human as a human who can raise a Zombie can get. But not only does the main character have an interesting POV but we get to also enjoy the story from the Zombie's POV, an intereting take, I think. Then there is this sort of side kick character which befuddles me but adds intrigue. I get the feeling there is more to come from that one. All in all, a newbie voodoo priestess raises a Zombie, then loses it no thanks to her friend. You also get the Zombie's POV (humourous and interesting) and a neat little ending. A fun read. Look forward to the others.

    Excellent Short Story! Can't wait for the rest in this series!!!!!

    The Source was exactly what I expected it to be (after reading the blurb) and MUCH MUCH MORE! What a great story in such a small package. It made for a quick, funny lunch break read, and by the end I wanted more! Seraphine had me giggling at her inexperience with magic, and her efforts to make things right. I found myself hoping that she would go against what she knew was the right thing to do, to
    get herself into more trouble. I can't wait to read the next one in this short story series.
