Jacinta never planned to stumble into the world of the giants…or to throw herself back into the prince’s life

For Jacinta and her mother, life is a daily struggle in the frozen north, right in the shadow of Battlement Wall. She can barely remember the happy days of her childhood, when the royal family visited their northern manor, and she and the prince and princess would play together. They’ve forgotten all about her, and life holds nothing but hunger and hard work. At least, until an elf appears from nowhere and catapults her into an unwelcome adventure in the dangerous land of the giants.

Prince Matthias never forgot the playmate who once made his summers so happy. When Jacinta reappears abruptly into his life with a report of giants and treacherous plots, he’s determined not to let her slip through his fingers again.

Except, all the barriers that have kept them apart for eight years are still there. Not to mention his father is determined to exploit Jacinta’s connection with the giants’ land, never mind the danger to her. With the discovery of the threat that’s looming over the entire continent, Matthias shouldn’t be distracted by matters of the heart. But he can’t lose Jacinta, or betray her again. He’ll have to overcome not only the scheming giant king, but his own weakness, or he’ll risk saving Providore at the cost of losing the one person he can’t live without.

Song of Vines is the sixth and final installment in The Singer Tales, a series of interconnected standalone novels set on the continent of Providore, where magic is harnessed by singers. Each story follows a different heroine navigating everything from miniature elves to brutish giants as she chases her own happily ever after. If you enjoy strong heroines, clean romance, and fantasy worlds with a dash of intrigue, discover the world of The Singer Tales today.

Editorial Reviews

In Gerald Van Slyke’s Historical Novel, The Three Eagles, the settings and events are realistic, immersive, and based in fact. He establishes just the right balance for the tone of the book, which explores the Roman invasion of Britain in 43 A.D. with a fictional account of the Christian missionaries who brought the teachings of Jesus of Nazareth to the Celts and Saxons. Historical writing requires many explanations and details, yet the pace of the writing never falters. The battle scenes are vividly real. Roman politics, social order and military details, tactics, and overall strategy have been comprehensively researched. The fictional elements and characters are thoroughly believable. A compelling, fascinating read. Five Stars.
–Glenn Schiffman, author

The Three Eagles taught me more interesting details about first century Roman culture and everyday life in the Roman army than any college history class. Throw in strong characters, a dramatic plot, and a fascinating story of Jesus’ Apostles walking around as regular people in common social situations and you have a terrific read.
–Jake How, author

The Three Eagles, is a work of historical fiction. The Roman Empire goes to war to lay claim to the British Isles. Author Vanslyke portrays in-depth battle scenes and plenty of intrigue that lovers of ancient history will appreciate. This is a story of love, hate and war written by a military man with a sense for accurate history.
–Marie F Martin, author

When I finished this book I wanted to keep reading and I can’t say that about many fiction books on Rome. You’d think I would like Roman historical fiction, but I rarely do. This one I liked. I am ready for the next one. I thought the story employed just the right amount of cynicism about motives and behavior. It seems like there is some wisdom evident in there! I like the way Claudius is portrayed. He knew he was regarded as a lightweight buffoon, but knew a bit about how to combat that perception and how to mostly ignore it so he could enjoy his scholarship. I thought the pace was remarkably good. I have always felt it must be difficult for authors to develop a whole book with events and revelations occurring at the right places to move the story forward and not do too much too soon nor bog down by doing too little for many pages. You got the pace right. Leaving the supernatural part of Christianity until near the end was good. It allowed time for the story to develop before asking the reader to accept Christian miracles, which the reader is ready to do by the time they appeared. The title is good and the cover artwork excellent. It is missing the usual fair maiden with cleavage. The book had the fair maiden, but the cover didn’t. Good for you! The afterward discussion of what was real and what was not was by itself worth the price of the book. Sometimes (often) historical fiction is more impressive and memorable than book learning and I like to know what actually corresponds to our best guess as to real history. It’s a fine work and I’ll recommend it to my church book group.

Although she’s reluctant to leave her struggling family behind, Maeve will do anything to help her ailing brother, including honing the magic she didn’t know she possessed until she has the skill required to perform a magical cure.

One day both her magical education and carefully laid plans go awry when a mistaken ingredient creates not a spell for healing, but a curse that transforms her into a frog. Left with no other course, Maeve is forced to turn to the wizard and prince, Alden, whose distraction with anything not pertaining to magic makes him the last man she can rely on.

Unaware of his new frog companion’s true identity as his apprentice, Alden and Maeve work together to compete in a magical contest whose prize will give both of them their greatest desire.

A blacksmith, a sailor, and an impossible sword that could destroy everything…
A Retelling of Rumpelstiltskin.

Emberly Miller may very well be the most talented swordsmith in the realm, but no one would ever know with her father getting all the credit. Ever since the loss of her mother, the once great swordsmith, Roy Miller, let his skills and business waste away until Emberly took matters into her own hands. With no one willing to buy a sword from a young woman, Emberly tricks her father into believing the work is his own, using his famous name to sell her blades.

Meanwhile, the charming sailor, Corso, has found himself on the golden king’s ship of leviathans. After trading his service to save his crews’ lives, he has no interest in following the golden king’s rules, but while he’s trapped on board, he might as well learn what he can. Whispers say the king is after a new weapon, one that he wants a very specific swordsmith for…

When the leviathans approach Roy’s forge, determined to drag him aboard their ship, Roy panics and claims he was never the truemaster, sending Emberly into their clutches… Dragged aboard the leviathan’s ship, Emberly is given an impossible task by the golden king himself: craft a sword of pure gold that can withstand battle.

With only a floating forge and a smarmy sailor keeping watch over her, can such a task even be completed? Or will she manage to forge the last tool required for the destruction of the realm?
