#NewRelease Liars and Thieves by D. Wallace Peach #fantasy #IndieAuthor

On By Teri PolenIn Promotions

Happy Friday!  I’ve got a treat for you guys today – D. Wallace Peach (Diana to most of us) – is here with her new release, Liars and Thieves.  Aren’t these covers spectacular?  Perfect for a fantasy series.  If Diana is a new-to-you author, be prepared for immersive world-building and outstanding character development.  I can’t wait to dive into this series.  Welcome, Diana!

What kind of magical skills do the goblins in your story possess?

All of the magic in Liars and Thieves in kinetic, based on motion/movement. Goblins live within the rock core of the northern mountains and have a range of terrakinetic skills. They can alter and reshape earthen elements including all minerals and mineral compositions, including rock, sand, and dust.  As a race, they are practical and concerned with science. And like everyone else, their skills vary in type and strength.

Some goblins are inventors, manufacturers, and engineers. Some goblins use their abilities to manufacture metal objects: railships, weapons, furniture, and piping. Some are engineers designing heating, plumbing, and sewage systems. Others, like the main character Naj’ar, use their terrakinetic abilities to build, restore, and burrow new tunnels. Like most kinetic talents, terrakinetic skills can be used enhance lives or destroy them.

 

Behind the Veil, the hordes gather, eager to savage the world. But Kalann il Drakk, First of Chaos, is untroubled by the shimmering wall that holds his beasts at bay. For if he cannot cleanse the land of life, the races will do it for him. All he needs is a spark to light the fire.

Three unlikely allies stand in his way.

A misfit elf plagued by failure—

When Elanalue Windthorn abandons her soldiers to hunt a goblin, she strays into forbidden territory.

A changeling who betrays his home—

Talin Raska is a talented liar, thief, and spy. He makes a fatal mistake—he falls for his mark.

A halfbreed goblin with deadly secrets—

Naj’ar is a loner with a talent he doesn’t understand and cannot control, one that threatens all he holds dear.

When the spark of Chaos ignites, miners go missing. But they won’t be the last to vanish. As the cycles of blame whirl through the Borderland, old animosities flare, accusations break bonds, and war looms.

Three outcasts, thrust into an alliance by fate, by oaths, and the churning gears of calamity, must learn the truth. For they hold the future of their world in their hands.

Author Bio:

D. Wallace Peach started writing later in life after the kids were grown and a move left her with hours to fill. Years of working in business surrendered to a full-time indulgence in the imaginative world of books, and when she started writing, she was instantly hooked. Diana lives in a log cabin amongst the tall evergreens and emerald moss of Oregon’s rainforest with her husband, two dogs, bats, owls, and the occasional family of coyotes.

    1. Thanks, Miriam. I found a font that I just LOVED, but I couldn’t figure out how to contact the designer and it wasn’t marked for commercial use. I would have paid for it if the cost wasn’t prohibitive, but I just couldn’t figure it out. I downloaded this one after much searching – My second choice. 🙂 I’m glad you like it. That was wonderful to hear. ❤

    1. Well, I’m doing a little happy dance, Denise. I wanted to turn the stereotype of goblins on its head a bit, so they are the ones who are technologically advanced. I usually write in medieval-ish settings and it was fun to add a touch of steampunk. I hope it all works and that you enjoy the read. 🙂 Hugs.

    1. Thanks for the visit, Mae. I was messing with stereotypes when creating the goblin race. Not all of that world-building actually made it into the book. but it was fun “researching.” Thanks so much for picking up the book and I hope that when you get to it, you enjoy the read. Have a great Sunday!
