The Trials of Daphne Holdfast
Daphne Holdfast is a young captain assigned to defend an isolated fort far behind enemy lines.
Promoted due to her family’s connections and mistrusted by the garrison’s officers, Daphne must find the strength to unite her troops and repel the advancing enemy hordes.
She has one advantage – she is an elite vision mage, endowed with supreme fighting skills.
Can Daphne learn to master her growing powers before the enemy attack?
Or will her first command be her last...?
Christopher Mitchell
Christopher’s first memory is of Elvis dying. His gran told him it was because he’d eaten too many cakes, and Christopher believed her. She also told him that there were fairies at the bottom of her garden, and he believed that too.
He counts himself very fortunate to have a supportive wife and four beautiful children. He loves deserts, which is too bad as he lives in Scotland, but the mountains, glens and lochs more than make up for it.
His other love is Greek Tragedy, especially Euripides, and he also reads history, science, fantasy, and pretty much anything about the Beatles...
