Valhalla Press proudly announces the publication of J.
Calvin Pierce’s Ambermere series. Pierce penned the series twenty years ago
when it met with critical acclaim and was translated into several languages
including Russian. The books, The Door to Ambermere, the Sorceress of
Ambermere, and The Wizard of Ambermere went on to become cult classics.
Valhalla Press is celebrating the 20th
Anniversary of the Ambermere release with the electronic re-release of this
classic series. Readers may enjoy the
books in the e-book format of their choice. The books are currently available
for the Kindle, Nook or on Smashwords. Readers may also download the Kindle App to allow their
PC or Mac to read the Kindle version. Shortly, the books will be released in
Apple ibooks and on Kobo.
In The Door to Ambermere, Daniel believes the only really
pressing issue in his life is a little misunderstanding with a mobster. That’s
because, lacking any awareness of the kingdom of Ambermere, possibly because it
is located in an alternative world, he has no way of anticipating what impact
the machinations of a tippling magician could possibly have on his life. He’s
about to find out.
In The Sorceress of Ambermere, Marcia is clinging to the
increasingly dreamlike memories of the previous summer. Had she really had
those adventures, really braved those perils? The scar on her cheekbone and the
ring on her finger said yes. But then, where is Hannah the witch? Where is the
young woman with the impossible aura and wild, frightening eyes? Marcia is
waiting, but not patiently…
The Wizard of Ambermere finds Marcia in her apartment. She has now
participated in so many strange events, has acquired a history of such a
surrealistic complexion, that the most outlandish adventures have come to seem
perfectly normal. Really, what could surprise her now? Meanwhile, in Ambermere
things are not quite as they should be. Will Asbrak the Fat have to call on
Rogan the Obscure again?
In honor of the 20th Anniversary, Valhalla Press
is also e-publishing two shorter works by Mr. Pierce: Meals on Wheels, a short
story and Sahib, a novelette. Our hope
is to give Mr. Piece’s fans a fresh look at his work and introduce these
enduring classics to a new generation.
