The Watchers” are supernatural beings in human form, charged with protecting mankind from the armies of darkness. Unfortunately, some of these Watchers go bad. Deirdra Eden’s The Watcher’s Series is written in a traditional fairytale style with a young girl’s discovery of incredible, but dangerous powers within herself, a cast of humorous side-kicks, a quest for greater self-discovery and purpose, and villains of epic proportions.
In England, 1270 A.D., Auriella flees her village after being accused of witchcraft. Pursued by nightmarish creatures, she struggles to accept the truth about her humanity.
Filled with fairies, dwarves, pixies, dragons, and monsters, Knight of Light is an enthralling tale that will capture the imaginations of readers young and old. Auriella’s new life as a royal protector is in shambles. The new king ignores her warnings of a Shadow Legion invasion and he is determined to marry her off. Ghosts from her past, the discovery of other Watchers, and a handsome Scottish warrior throw her off guard and weaken her emotional defenses. Caught in a web of secrecy and betrayal, Auriella struggles to control and protect the devastating power of Starfire. A terrible truth and a fateful choice will lead her to her destiny as the fabled Lady of Neviah, or could shroud the entire world in eternal darkness. Filled with action, romance, drama, and comedy, Hidden Fire is an addicting read that you won’t want to put down.
The Watchers Series has been described as Braveheart meets Supernatural. The mythology for the series is based on many theological texts from dozens of sects with correlating themes. Ancient writings include the Dead Sea Scrolls, the Traditional Apocrypha, the Pearl of Great Price and the Kabbalah. The Watchers are supernatural beings in human form whose duty it is to protect and guard mankind from the armies of darkness. Unfortunately, as the Book of Enoch mentions, some of these Watchers go bad.
Although the mythology is based on these texts, Deirdra Eden’s The Watcher’s Series is written in a traditional fairytale style with a young girl’s discovery of incredible, but dangerous powers within herself, a cast of humorous side-kicks, a quest for greater self-discovery and purpose, and villains of epic proportions.
Auriella joins the ranks of the Immortals, but Azrael has vanished in the depths of war. She is forced to choose between love or loyalty when the druids charge her with finding Alamar, an unruly Watcher who can control the seas. Though witty and charming, Alamar and his blood thirsty friends can’t be trusted. Now, it’s a race against time to find Azrael before he is killed, and Alamar before he is recruited by the Shadow Legion.
“Deirdra Eden has surpassed her earlier achievement in this daring tale of struggle between good and evil forces that exist in every universe.” Mark F. Cheney, author of MARK OF THE JAGUAR
1. What is your favorite Autumn Time activity?
Hikes in the mountain.
2. What is one of your writing quirks?
Since I am a graphic designer as well as an author, all the sentences have to look aesthetically pleasing or I will re-word. I’m also a lyricist so all the sentences have to flow as well.
3. Which of your books was your favorite to write? And why?
Probably my last book. I feel like I become a better writer everytime I write.
4. Who is the person or group of people who most support you in your writing? What have they done for you?
My husband helped me overcome barriers to writing, my father-in-law and dad both edited, my book manager has saved the day so many times, and my developmental editors did a lot of painstaking work to make the books ready to read.
5. What is your trick for getting past writer’s block? And what advice would you give to others who are struggling?
I don’t believe in writer’s block. That thing people call writer’s block could signal that creative energy is to be devoted elsewhere, or that you are in the winter of your creative cycle which is not a bad thing. For more on this see my book Time Management for Creative People.
6. Autumn time has its own set of foods/flavors. What is your favorite Autumn comfort food?
Pumpkin chocolate chip cookies. Get two and put cream cheese in the middle for a yummy cookie sandwich.
