The Cerberus Rebellion
by Joshua K. Johnson
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Fantasy
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
On the world of Zaria, Elves, magic
and mythical beasts coexist beside rifles and railroads. The futures of two
nations hang in the balance as rebels and revolutionaries trade gunfire with
loyalists and tyrants.
The King of Ansgar, secure in his
belief that his loyal nobles and fearful subjects answer to his every whim,
seeks to gain favor with friends across the sea. But his decision to send
armies thousands of miles away will test that fear, and loyalty.
In war, little is held back; in
revolution, nothing is safe.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
EXCERPT:
The
crackle of musket fire drifted up from the trenches; only a few quick shots at
first, but quickly followed by full volleys. Flashes of light marked the battle
in the trenches and Raedan listened carefully for the command to push his
troops forward. He glanced behind him quickly.
The
color guard stood resolute, the banners of Arndell and the North Griffin Cliffs
at the front of the formation. A half-company of infantry had been assigned to
protect the flags should they come under attack.
Wounded
began to drift back out of the trenches. Some retreated under their own power;
others were carried between two of their fellows. Raedan tried to count the men
fleeing the battle, but quickly lost count.
Finally,
the trumpets sounded again, ordering him forward.
“How's
it look in there?” he asked a retreating officer. The man wore the gaudy orange
of Sea Watch and the stripes of a captain. He had taken a round through his
shoulder and was supporting a corporal that had taken a shot to the leg.
“The
artillery did a job on them,” the captain said. “But they've still got some
fight left.”
“All
right, men! Let's take it to them!” Raedan started toward the trenches at the
double time and his men started to trot after him.
The
earthworks twisted and zagged one way and another, slowly leading the infantry
closer to the fortress that loomed large above. The sun had finally set and
flares were exploding high overhead.

ReplyDeleteDo you have a special time to write or how is your day structured?
ReplyDeleteRight now I'm working 2 jobs, going to school for a BA and have 2 kids to tale care of, all on top of writing.
DeleteWhich is to say that my days are always busy, but I typically have the same downtime every week that I use to write. Additionally, I do a lot of Idea scribbling on paper and use Google Keep to save things.
Thanks for hosting!
