The Deceived By: E. C. Fisher



The Deceived

By: E.C. Fisher

I truly love the cover of this book! The design is truly artistic and powerful all wrapped into one. And what I like about it even more, is that this rendition of Lucifer, aka Satan aka the Devil is much darker then most I have encountered, and I like it. There is something about the time and effort with cover art, that pulls me in.

Now as for the book, this is a different version of Revelations. In this version it is Lucifer’s end of days. So be prepared for a different outlook then what you are accustomed to, and let me tell you, this one will truly keep you reading to want to learn more.

Lucifer has gone and killed God, and then sent the Angels onto Earth for the cycle of rebirth. In the meantime, he has stayed in Heaven, plotting his revenge. 

The Arch Angel Michael as his Father is dying, gives him the Sword of Spirit, in hopes that he can save humanity, and is sent to Earth to try to do just that, upon his own rebirth. 

The Planet is being attacked by the four horsemen of the Apocalypse: Death, Famine, War and Conquest. 

Michael gathers a group of followers and travels across the US in hopes of defeating the Anti-Christ and ending Lucifer’s plan, as well as freeing his own love, who was taken hostage during his own escape from Heaven.

This book, is like no other biblical tale you would hope to read, and in fact, the Author has another book titled: “The Deceived: Additional Selection of Short Stories” Link: https://www.amazon.com/Deceived-Additional-Selection-Short-Stories-ebook/dp/B0768PCZW3/ref=asap_bc?ie=UTF8 If you are interested. 

I truly found this book to be a five-star read myself, it was one of those unique style kind of books, that gives you a completely different way of looking at things. And sometimes, you just need to give everything a second look, and maybe even a third. And with the biblical stories and theories, there are so many, that all anyone ever does is argue. That’s one reason I enjoyed this book. It was written totally out of the ordinaire and it has its own sense of style and uniqueness. I truly enjoyed it, and think I found myself a new writer to follow!
Here are my questions for Mr. Fisher:
 1. What made you write this book, and how long did it take you?

I had a thought in my head one day while working, 'What if the Bible was a lie?' This thought drove me to think about what the consequences of that would be like and then my story sprung from that. I tried to focus the idea on Lucifer winning his war against God but during his reign, Lucifer found it impossible to just eradicate humanity, so he had to go about corrupting them. Hence his lie, the Bible. I decided not to focus on the effects of this revelation until it was near the time of his plans fruition, which was the End of Days or Revelations. It took me a little over six months to feel comfortable with my story to decide to go through with sending it over to an editor.

2. Do you have any photos or descriptions of the characters?

I was thinking of getting some illustrations completed for the characters, but I haven't done that yet. Maybe in the future, I will provide that as a bonus to go with the book.

3. What are you working on now?

I have a sent a fantasy story to my editor, it is broken into four parts at the moment which I hope to use to bring in more readers and followers. The book is titled; Re: Camelot Part One: The Descendant of the King. I am also working on a suspenseful paranormal story at the moment, it is my first attempt in this genre but I am feeling confident in it. The working title of this story is The Rain. I hope to bring both of these books to readers before the spring of 2018.

4. Did you ever think you would grow up and become a writer?

Writing was never something I thought I would find myself doing when I was younger. One day, I woke up and just had a story in my head and I wasn't able to sleep well until I was finally able to write it out.

5. What all education have you had?

Nothing more than High School.

6. What are your hobbies?

I like watching movies or TV shows. I was into bowling when I was younger but haven't been doing much of that lately. I like billiards.

7. Who is your favorite Author(s)?

I like Clive Cussler, Dan Brown and Jim Butcher

8. Where is your favorite place to write?
I have my computer set up in the living room. I find having the distractions around me help my creative mind figure out a scene I may be stuck on.

9. What inspires you to write?
I try to rethink old stories. Kind of how I thought of The Deceived and my new release Re:Camelot Part One: The Descendant of the King.

Stealing Hope by Beverly Ovalle



Stealing Hope


By Beverly Ovalle

Hope is a shape shifting Dragon, who learns she has come from a family of them. Because the Apocalypse has taken place, the few surviving humans, and Shape Shifting Dragons, the World has returned back to the basics whereas everyone farms, barters and such to make ends meet. 

Ari, has felt drawn to Hope, knowing he is meant to be her mate. He, along with her brothers, Crag, Rog and Hark that she meets in different time frames, help to teach Hope about herself and educate her. 

Ari must also meet and gain the approval of Hopes father, and the rest of the family. Will he? 

This book is very humorous and has a lot of very sensuous love scenes in it. As you read along, you can very well imagine and see a very fun and intriguing action filled book. This book will pull you in, to the point of wanting to follow along in Hope’s life further to see what could and would happen to her. 


Everything you read and feel, you can see, and it is so interesting that you just feel like you are right there with them. I was to the point that I couldn’t put the book down, and I wanted to read more. Hope is a very interesting character!

You will definitively fall in love with this book! I can promise that, therefore I assure you this is a five star read! So if you haven’t already, I would suggest buying your copy today, and enjoying falling in love with Hope the shape shifting dragon and her love Ari as I did. And her family, is pretty epic too. Beverly Ovalle is an excellent story teller for any age group!



Here are my question for Beverly:


1. What made you write this book? 

I've always been fascinated by dragons and the possibility of apocalypse. I started writing this story as a National Novel Writing Month project. I got involved in telling it and kept at it until I was done.

2. How long did it take you to write this book?

I wrote everyday in November, but didn't finish it until June that next year, so eight months.

3. Do you have any photos or descriptions of these characters? (Like Hope or Ari?)

Ari is black haired with gold eyes, stocky and in great physical shape. In his dragon form, his eyes stay the same. His scales are black with a blue tint. He has wings, and a row on spikes from his head to his tail. Hope is blue eyed and her hair is a mix of red and blonde, and brown, a chestnut color. Hope's dragon is small, much smaller than Ari. Her eyes still are blue and her scales a glistening copper, reflective of her hair in her human form. My inspirational photos for Ari and Hope and the rest of the dragons can be found on my pinterest page at https://www.pinterest.com/ovalleba/a-dragons-fated-heart-series-inspiration/.

4. Who are your favorite Author(s)?

Christine Feehan, Stephanie Laurens, G.A. Aikens, and T.S. Joyce.

5. What are you currently working on?

I am revising A Saint's Salvation, adding the heroines point of view and the next in the series, A Sailor's Delight and also working on Finding Faith, the second book in A Dragon's Fated Heart series.

6. What are your hobbies?

I love to read of course. I sew, and bead and race around town on my scooter. If I'm indoor, I love to game.

7. What can you suggest to those wanting to write a book?

Go for it. Give it a try. I never thought anything I wrote would ever be in someone else's hands but I tried it and it is a fantastic feeling when someone likes it.

8. Is it hard to get published?

It's not easy, but it is worth the time. Self publishing makes it easier to do it yourself but it is much more involved.

9. Please provide us a link to all of your work and how we can follow it and you:
