A Time for Courage

A Time for Courage is a captivating story of the lives of four soldiers struggling with their own personal convictions and human frailty at a time when the country is engaged in a great Civil War. 

In this book, you’ll meet the idealistic Private Madison Jefferson Payne, an eighteen-year-old black Union soldier who pens an inspiring letter that urges black men to join the Union army and fight for their freedom. 

You’ll ride with the dastardly Captain Daniel Barlow on secret missions behind enemy lines. You’ll have a front-row seat into his complex heart as he espouses the belief that black soldiers are inferior, and you’ll witness his secret that will be known only by you. 

You’ll sit with Lieutenant John Davenport, a former college professor who has found his lifelong passion in education, as he wrestles with internal conflict over accepting orders to start a school for black soldiers, a decision he knows is unpopular with many white officers or continue to fight in a war that only brings inevitable death and destruction to humanity. 

You’ll journey with Major James Hightower, a Confederate cavalryman, as he toils with leaving his terminally ill wife and young son to rendezvous with the legendary General Nathan Bedford Forrest and fight for a losing cause and a senseless war that could no longer be won. 

Destiny will bring these soldiers to a small, insignificant place called Fort Pillow near Memphis, Tennessee. On April 12, 1864, they will fight a little-known battle in which honor and survival hang in the balance, and the only thing that can tip the scale is their courage.

Wizardry: Part 1

Wizardry: Part 1: an exciting, high-fantasy adventure novel.

In a world of mighty magic, mighty weapons, mighty abilities, mighty intelligences - and the even mightier beings that possess them - the eternal struggle between the forces of good and evil tends to be decided by which force has the most… power!

Jartan - a young, fifteen-year-old human boy - has just become a paladin. But his recently acquired rank within the noble and powerful paladinhood is one of desperation, and not ability. For an evil wizard of diabolical intelligence and frightening power, along with his demonic son who can transform himself into fantastic creatures of tremendous power and destruction, are planning to unleash a great horror upon the many lands - and Jartan is the only one in a position to stop them. But the boy has nowhere near the maturity, experience, and power for such a daunting and virtually suicidal task. Only an enigmatic wizard with a twisted and troubled past has the knowledge the novice paladin desperately needs. But this sorcerer has his own agenda - and can just as easily kill Jartan, as help him.

The unlikely hero must overcome many challenges in his dangerous adventure. An abysmal swamp that is host to nefarious denizens, the village of forest elves, a library of evil knowledge, and the imposing Undead Forest are only a few of the deadly perils encountered during his travels. But these are nothing compared to what lies ahead, for Jartan finds the journey through the foreboding Underworld an absolute hell. It is an odious realm of darkness where lethal barriers, diabolical traps, and powerful creatures await those foolish enough to venture into the infernal depths. The four 'Caverns of Death' the overwhelmed and underpowered teen must pass is only one of the near impossible obstacles he faces, culminating in the lair of the great diamond dragon - and the gods made certain that nothing gets past the dragon.
