Prelude to the Shards by Michael Timmins

There are three stories in this book and all of them are good.  A touch of magic and lots of danger...

BooksGoSocial and Net Galley let me read this book for review (thank you).  It has been published and you can grab a copy now.

He's waiting for his girlfriend to join him for dinner.  She doesn't show, so he goes to find her.  She's dead and her killer tries to frame him.  He runs, intending to find the witch who can see the truth and pardon him.  The killer pursues him.  But the killer makes a mistake and asks a Blood Mage for help.

The next story is about a race where the winners become the next Witchguards.  The problem is that the losers die.  And not from natural causes...

Whisp lives in Ghost.  It's her town.  She tries to hide her magic but she's willing to use it to save those she loves.  Now the Shen are after her...

Fascinating stories with enough magic to keep your attention.  What more could you want?
