Mankind would never know how close it came to annihilation on June 30, 1908. Somewhere in the murky depths of the Cosmos, the Comet of Karma is born. When all hope fades, it is sent to planet Earth, its sole mission to wipe out a failing civilization. It has happened before, and it can happen again. Except this time, the Earth Keepers would not interfere.
The Comet of Karma tasked with destroying a failing civilization… The Earth Keepers endowed with supreme powers over the planet and agonizing over the ultimate decision… The Protectors risking their lives to keep the world intact… A beautiful brunette with hidden agenda, who is infinitely more than anyone knows… Two ambitious and unscrupulous men, who’ll stop at nothing… Global secret society bent on usurping power on Earth… A woman, ready to betray in order to save her son… Old spy organization with a secret human weapon… The Shifters, with power over mind, matter, time and space…
And three teenagers, two of whom are destined to become mankind’s salvation—the all-powerful KEY of DESTINY. They will open a new era for Humanity, if they succeed in keeping their souls uncorrupted… and if they manage to come together before it’s too late.

ANNOUNCING!
2/20/13 Announcement!
ARCHOS Tablet giveaway is still active. I thank those few people who participated in Phase I – you’ve all been entered! Unfortunately, the participation was lukewarm at best. There’s nothing I wouldn’t like more than for one of my supporters to win this prize valued at $349. It’s presently sitting in my home, waiting for its lucky winner. However, I cannot award it if there isn’t enough participation.
Therefore, I’ve decided to announce Phase 2 with a different set of rules, and additional prizes. It pains me to say that due to the extremely high shipping costs, ARCHOS Tablet is only available in the USA. I have many wonderful fans and supporters outside the USA, and I apologize for the inconvenience. However, this shouldn’t dissuade you from participating as I intend to have other fabulous prizes to thank you all for your awesome support. Phase 2 announcement will be made shortly, and it will be much fun – please stay tuned!

As mentioned above, THE EARTH SHIFTER is priced at only $2.99 (or Euro/UK equivalent) as an ebook so that as many people as possible could easily afford to read and enjoy it. My immediate goal is to sell 15,000 ebooks in a relatively short period of time.
This giveaway is a thank you to my readers and fans for their readership and support. No purchase is required; I am equally grateful to all those who would buy and enjoy my book, and to those who would help me promote it by spreading the word. This is because I strongly believe in THE EARTH SHIFTER message, and in its value to the readers! Therefore, all of you will be able to benefit from this giveaway.
I am giving away several very valuable prizes. All giveaways can be entered simultaneously. Enter one giveaway or all! There is no limit to the number of entries. The more entries, the more chances to win! Sky is the limit!
GRAND PRIZE
ARCHOS 8o G9 Turbo with WiFi, 8″ Touchscreen Tablet, value $349

I love my ARCHOS Tablet! If you are an avid reader, this is your solution! With ARCHOS, you can download ebooks in any format, including Kindle, Nook/epub, PDF, and others. Unlike with e-readers, you are not limited to a specific retailer and can enjoy your books from various sources! I also love the fact that it doubles as a lightweight, super-compact wifi PC, and that I can watch my fave YouTube vids on the go! There are so many other awesome functions this tablet includes that I haven’t even scratched the surface!
In fact, I loved my Archos Tablet so much that I purchased the second one, in order to award it to one of my readers/fans after THE EARTH SHIFTER release! It is currently sitting in its original box, unopened, ready for you to claim your prize!

From my family to yours: HAPPY NEW YEAR!
Princess Lily, contemplating the meaning of the holidays in her favorite red holiday shawl that I knit especially for her. In case you were wondering, these bottles are here for the holiday spirit and as New Year’s decorations. We decided that we couldn’t let good wine go to waste, having inherited an extensive cellar from the previous house owner. We, on the other hand, are a totally non-drinking and holistically-inclined family, and even Lily Cat has reformed lately.
