THE MAEBOWN ~ Epic conclusion to THE WEALD FAE JOURNALS by @WealdFaeJournal #Fantasy #ASMSG



An Epic Conclusion to an Epic Series!

THE MAEBOWN (Weald Fae Journals #4)




"The Weald is at War!"

Now a Maebown, and pitted against a swelling number of Fae siding with Ozara and the Alliance, Maggie is in more danger than ever—so is everything and everyone she cares about. The Alliance is on the move, forcing the original clans across the globe to choose between the enemy they know—Ozara—and an eighteen-year-old human they do not trust.

As the Alliance unleashes its insidious plans, creating havoc the world over, Maggie builds a coalition—the last, best chance to defeat Ozara—but the young Maebown must overcome centuries of distrust the original clans’ harbor for one another. Lines are drawn, sides are chosen, allegiances are galvanized, and friends are lost. Maggie returns to the Weald to force a final showdown.

THE MAEBOWN is the final book in the four-part epic fantasy series, Weald Fae Journals.


ABOUT THE AUTHOR: CHRISTOPHER SHIELDS

Christopher Shields
College Professor and Author
CHRISTOPHER SHIELDS is a Professor of Criminal Justice at the University of Arkansas.  Known in the halls of the university as Dr. Shields, he prefers to go by Chris when anywhere else.  His students love him, and seek his guidance often.  It is for that, and his unique ability to shape and guide the futures of many students, that he considers his academic position his “calling.”
A lifelong resident of Northwest Arkansas, he spent his childhood in the small town of Prairie Grove.  Upon entering the University of Arkansas, he relocated to Fayetteville where he has resided ever since.  Over the years, Chris has acquired a BA degree in Criminal Justice, a MA degree  in Sociology, a JD of Law degree, and a Ph.D. in Public Policy.  Also the author of many nonfiction works, he published his first academic book on prosecutorial and defense strategies in domestic terrorism trials–his research specialization.
Throughout his college career, Chris was active in the University of Arkansas’ Best of Sight and Sound–the Razorback Band.  An avid Saxaphone player, he has enjoyed playing both in the band and in jam sessions for over 20 years.  He got a little rusty for a bit, but works in as much practice and jam time as his teaching and writing schedule afford.
Chris devotes his days to academia, but at night he turns on the desk lamp and creates a new world–a world full of immortal beings, world altering struggles, clandestine romantic involvements, elaborate conspiracies, powerful family and friendship bonds, and superpower struggles that may very well shake the pillars of humankind.
Through his work, The Weald Fae Journals, Chris hopes to open up the vivid and engaging world of the Fae as he perceives them, and at the same time draw greater correlations and lessons from their interactions and characteristics.  He hopes that readers will enjoy experiencing the journey as much as he enjoys crafting and telling it.  Please feel free to email him, or post comments anywhere on the site that interests you.  Happy Reading.

Unrelenting war between humans and elves threatens to destroy the forest forever.

A tyrant king has declared war on the elves and will stop at nothing to see them annihilated. Despite fighting savagely to defend their homes, the elves are outmatched by vicious attacks from highly skilled battle mages. The elven clans must join forces to have any chance of survival against the ruthless king’s army.

Meanwhile, a young half-elf is forced from the human world he has always known and travels into the Wildlands to seek out his elven kin.
