September News

Kia Ora from New Zealand and hello from Splashdown!
Lots of goings-on this month, so let's dive right in...


Now Available
Finding Angel, the first novel by veteran author Kat Heckenbach, is here!
It's aimed at middle-graders and young adults, but fantasy-minded grown-ups will love it too.
Perfect for reading with or without kids!

Angel doesn’t remember her magical heritage…but it remembers her.
Magic and science collide when she embarks on a journey to her true home, and to herself.
Angel lives with a loving foster family, but dreams of a land that exists only in the pages of a fantasy novel. Until she meets Gregor, whose magic Talent saves her life and revives lost memories.
She follows Gregor to her homeland…a world unlike any she has imagined, where she travels a path of self-discovery that leads directly to her role in an ancient Prophecy…and to the madman who set her fate in motion.
Available at Amazon (in Kindle too). Other retailers are taking their time to list it, but you can get Epub for Nook at Smashwords along with many other formats.
