Hi all,
I am looking reviewers for a recently-published fantasy novella that follows the journey of a 17yo in his bid to protect his mother. If you are interested, please offer an email to send you an evoucher or pdf. Below is a blurb of the 40000 word novella.

How much do you love your mother?

At the foot of the Olden Mountains wreathed with ancient clouds, a bushy-haired village boy watches as a silver axe rents his father’s life to pieces. Since that night when panic and gore settled on the humble homes of Sharkney, the 7 year old avid climber became his mother’s sole protector, traversing the vast lands of Empire to make a living and find the cure for her ailing heart.

Now, 17, Aldyn has wagered his life for the Heartstone to save his mama, but events bring him face-to-face with his father’s killer in the city of Kestabal. Aldyn’s thirst for vengeance and the twisting knots of fate lead to him being declared a fugitive after escaping a death sentence, and his journey becomes blighted by betrayal and strange visions of a man imprisoned by the mythical monsters called Deryndons.

Struggling for his life in the dark city of Lodim many leagues from home, Aldyn has worries greater than the ten-storey drop of the alchemist’s tower when he hears the Vultures are back to their ways. If he is to save his mother and the girl he conveniently calls sister, he will have to survive mercenaries and the mythical beasts that ride the high winds.

As the first novella in the Mama's Boy Series, this fantasy/action adventure short story presents a first person fictionalised narrative of the true struggles of brave young men and women as they suffer to make a better life for their families.
