Within the Essence (The Division: Book One)
By Connie L. Smith
Publisher: InkSpell Publishing
Cover Design: Najla Qamber Designs
As the demons near,
the Essences rise…
AJ had never been particularly
athletic or coordinated, so waking up to realize she suddenly has super-human
strength is a massive, mind-shaking shock. Finding that she’s gained a stalker
overnight is another mark in the unusual category, and when she discovers she’s
always had the essence of a werewolf in her blood, her world all but shifts
beneath her.
Demons, she’s told, are looming in
the world’s future, and the only hope humanity has of surviving their arrival
is if she and teenagers like her surrender their humanity to dive into their
mythical essences. Fairies, dragons, dwarves, mermaids… The remnants of
seventeen different fantasy species must come to life to save the lives of
everyone.
Someway, an army of supernatural
teenagers must prepare to meet the demons escaping from their dimensional
banishment, or everything ends.
Can these teens succeed and save the world?
Can these teens succeed and save the world?
About the Author:
Connie L. Smith
spends a decent amount of time with her mind wandering in fictional places. She
reads too much, likes to bake, and might forever be sad that she doesn’t have
fairy wings. And that she can’t swing dance. Much of her preferred music is
severely outdated, and as an adult she’s kind of obsessed with Power Rangers.
She has her BA from Northern Kentucky University in Speech Communication and
History (she doesn’t totally get the connection either), and her MA in English
and Creative Writing.
You can find Connie...

WELCOME BACK TO THE FOREST!
Gabe the goblin just saved his town Broken Branch Falls from splitting apart. He also revealed that humans--horrible creatures of myth and legend--may actually be part of their history! But seriously? Nah!
Now Ona, Gabe’s girlfriend, is headed thousands of miles away to Camp Cradle Rock for Spring Break seeking evidence of humans. Gabe knows better than to tell a stubborn ogress she’s crazy, so he’s letting her go and spending the break at the beach like a normal teenage beast. And he’s determined to have a good time without her, whether he likes it or not.
But when Gabe hears Ona went missing, he and his friends set out for the wilds of the west to find her, no matter what dangerous creatures get in his way. Not even humans.
