Vica: A Land Magic Novella

by Ashley Lavering

Overview

In the city of Vica, Marek is known for his great skills at extracting information without his presence ever being noticed. His nickname, Ghost, perfectly describes the way he stalks the night like a silent, fleeting shadow. Those who have heard of him fear his skill, but no matter what he does he can never shake the haunting memories of his slum upbringing and the father who abandoned him. Paid well by the wealthy for his services, Marek runs from these memories and travels the Three Kingdoms, but there is one who always lures him back to her side and to the city he longs to forget. Upon his return to Vica, he finds the slums in turmoil as a new ringleader comes into power and threatens everyone Marek holds dear. With deadly secrets at play, will Marek be strong enough to save those he loves?

About the Author

A nomad at heart, Ashley currently claims Nevada as her home. She has a wonderful husband and three girls that put up with her "writing time." When she's not pondering a spell that will magically calm the ferocious winds that plague the air around her, you can find her, with notepad in hand, frantically jotting down ideas in those short moments between caring for her girls. Art and science have always been her yin and yang. Throughout her college career, she shifted between the two, but in the end graduated with a Bachelors of Mathematics and Science from the University of Wyoming. Charging into adventures and discovering something new has always been a passion of hers, but as a teenager, she used to run screaming from a reading or writing assignment. Looking back, the irony isn't lost on her. Now you can't catch her without a book in hand or an open word document. Every time a new idea pops into her mind her heart races and her hand twitches to write it. In that moment, she has her writer's high and prays it will sustain her through many hours of revision.
