I know I did!” -Erin Bedford, USA Today bestselling author of Chasing Rabbits ”Another great story from K.N. Lee that pulls you in from the very beginning. With pirates, dragons, magic and mermaids; this is a book to hit every one of your favorite topics. It was a quick read that leaves you to wanting more. After I finished reading all I was hoping was that there was a second story to come. Like always, K.N. Lee was able to depict a story that you get immersed in, along with you falling in love with the characters.”- M.M. Chabot, author. ”Don’t blink. This short-form, high fantasy offering from KN Lee packs so much into it, you should plan to read it twice. Once because you can’t put it down, and again to catch everything you miss the first time through. All the emotions are accounted for…now if the author would just give me the answers already. Book II can’t hit soon enough.” -Savannah Verte, award-winning author of Viva Zapata ”K.N. Lee has brought us dragons in a way you’ve never seen them before. I can’t wait to read the rest of the series!”- S.J. Cairns, bestselling author of Soul Discovery ”With a gentle touch but real emotions, Half-Blood Dragon uses magic, adventure, love, and betrayal to give us a mirror for our own society. Through the entire book, we meet characters who are stripped of choices solely because of things they can’t control about their “blood.”I’m really intrigued to see where the next two books take us. There are so many questions we need answers to. I want to know more about the Red Dragon, what Rickard really wants, what’s going to happen to Rowen, and will Gavin ever have a moment where he doesn’t get on Elian’s nerves, LOL! Great job to K.N. Lee and hoping the sequels come soon!”- Cait Reynolds, bestselling author of Downcast. About the Sponsoring Author: Mike has recently released all three books in The Cremelino Prophecy Teen/YA fantasy series and the first two books of his next series, The Alaris Chronicles are on pre-order. Please join his mailing list at www.MichaelSheltonBooks.com to continue to get information on these stories and any future publications. Mike was born in California and has lived in multiple states from the west coast to the east coast. He cannot remember a time when he wasn’t reading a book. At school, home, on vacation, at work at lunch time, and yes even a few pages in the car (at times when he just couldn’t put that great book down). Though he has read all sorts of genres he has always been drawn to fantasy. It is his way of escaping to a simpler time filled with magic, wonders and heroics of young men and women. Other than reading, Mike has always enjoyed the outdoors. From the beaches in Southern California to the warm waters of North Carolina. From the waterfalls in the Northwest to the Rocky Mountains in Utah. Mike has appreciated the beauty that God provides for us. He also enjoys hiking, discovering nature, playing a little basketball or volleyball, and most recently disc golf. He has a lovely wife who has always supported him, and three beautiful children who have been the center of his life. Mike began writing stories in elementary school and moved on to larger novels in his early adult years. He has worked in corporate finance for most of his career. That, along with spending time with his wonderful family and obligations at church has made it difficult to find the time to truly dedicate to writing. In the last few years as his children have become older he has returned to doing what he truly enjoys – writing!
