Finished the Palace of Illusions over the weekend. It was a very satisfying story and ended wonderfully.... I would suggest it to anyone who is into historical fiction.
Now I'm off to start The Twentieth Wife. I'll tell you more about that later!
They say show your work to at least 10 people before publishing...

I wish I had remembered that before.
I took yet another look at the previous chapters of TDB and realized that I needed another edit. I know, I promised I wouldn't do this and this time is really the last...
That is, if the 10 people I find who want to beta read this doggone thing think everything is okay.
Yes, I'm on the search for 10 folk, who like epic fantasy, and will respect the copyright, to read this and tell me what they think before I go finalfinalfinal.
If you like epic fantasy, and are interested, go ahead and comment here, or even email me a keshkin@live.com
I'm almost done with my re-edit of chapter 4 so I have one part ready to go.
:D

The War of The Keshkin
The threat to their combined children was great, for each was Gifted, given Divinity in a small measure from the two men. For every ten drops of blood these children bore, four were Immortal. And as Divinity clashed with Itself, the Gift within each child began to twist them from inside.
So, they cried for help, loud enough to rattle the foundations of the lands in which they lived. And the only one to hear them was the one who gave them life.
Each child was placed in their own safe haven, protected for the barrage without, able to strengthen their Gift within.
She gave them Sanctuary.
Had she failed to do so, this story would never have taken place. The Sundering would have been complete.
Crazy Writer Say What?
The Great American Science Fiction Novel was completed 3 months later... and was 53 pages long. Maybe one day I'll publish it.
However, now that I'm 29 years older, I can't use the gremlin excuse any more. Can I?
