The Broken Sword by Joseph Robert Lewis

February 2012

Halcyon  Series – Volume 2

In the wintry wastes of Espana, Don Lorenzo Quesada’s world is falling apart. His fencing school is failing, the military wants him back in uniform, and the entire country is reeling from a devastating war. But Lorenzo believes that an ancient and dangerous relic can restore his nation to prosperity and honor, if the military doesn’t find it first.

But just as he prepares to set out in search of this relic, he receives some unexpected guests. Famed pilot and engineer Taziri Ohana arrives on his doorstep with three frightened passengers, two exhausted crewmen, and one harrowing story about her aeroplane being shot down by the the same military commander who wants Lorenzo in his service and the relic in his possession.

With a tempermental saber-toothed cat at his side, Lorenzo races into the north to find the relic and protect his friends. On the road he finds deadly foreign agents, blood-thirsty beasts, and freezing blizzards, as well as a strange masked woman who can guide him to his sacred treasure. But when the relic is stolen and the military unleashes a massive new warship, Lorenzo must find a way to prevent a war that could destroy countless nations, even if it costs him both the relic and his life.

I have always loved books but discovered romance books later in life while home with a sick child thanks to my best friend, Brenda. It didn't take long to meet up with Karen and learn that we shared a lot more than a love of books. We are sisters in spirt who want to help people spread the word about books. KarenneLyn is the web designer of Coffee Time Romance and several other sites. This wonderful exploration of her creative side has become a fun thing to learn and opened the door to meeting some wonderful people.

Interview with Celia Breslin 
We are thrilled to have author Celia Breslin with us today. Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to give readers a chance to get to know more about you and your work. While some questions may be traditional, you’d be surprised at what readers connect to. Sometimes the simplest ‘I can relate to that’ grabs their interest where nothing else can. So, let us begin.

Can you share a little something about Celia Breslin that’s not mentioned in your bio on your website?

Sure! I play piano, and I like to sing. Used to be a soprano, but now I’m more of an alto. I also like to work out every day. Weight training, cardio, walking, etc.

How long have you been writing?

I’ve been writing stories since I was a kid. Mostly short stories back then. After college, I moved on to novella and novel-length work. I still do write the occasional short story, including The Night Hag, a dark modern fairy tale I wrote for Halloween 2023 (free to my newsletter subscribers).

What have you found most challenging about it?

I have more story ideas than I have time, LOL. 

What does writing do for you? Is it fun, cathartic, do you get emotional?

Writing is definitely fun and fulfilling. I do get emotional about my stories, especially when I’m throwing all sorts of problems at my main characters. But then I get to cheer them on when they overcome the obstacles and achieve their HEA.

Describe what your writing routine looks like. Are you disciplined with a strict schedule, or do you have to be in the mood?

I try to write regardless of my mood. I like to stay connected to my WiP, so daily writing is a must.  I’m also an editor, so my typical workday includes both activities. Oh, and my daily workout!

Did you go into writing thinking that it would be a hobby or a job?

It started as a hobby when I was a kid/teen. Fast forward to adulthood…when my daughter was born, I thought, why not publish my stories? So, I started submitting my vampire series to publishers, and it was picked up. Writing has been one my job hats ever since.

Let's move on and give readers some insight into your personal life.

 What are your pet peeves?  Being late, drivers...
