Find out more about HM Clarke and her books on her website http://hmclarkeauthor.com

H M Clarke has been a Console Operator, an ICT Project Manager, Public Servant, Paper Shuffler, IT Help Desk nerd, and a medical biller and coder (the last being the most exciting.) Now she writes Fantasy and Science Fiction while secluded in her dragon's den surrounded by her large book collection.

She attended Flinders University in Adelaide, South Australia, where she studied for a Bachelor of Science (Chem), and also picked up a Diploma in Project Management while working for the South Australian Department of Justice.

In her spare time, she likes to lay on the couch and watch TV, garden, draw, read, and tell ALL her family what wonderful human beings they are.

She keeps threatening to go out and get a real job (Cheesecake Test Taster sounds good) and intends to retire somewhere warm and dry – like the middle of the Simpson Desert. For the time being, however, she lives in Ohio and dreams about being warm…

She is also a bit of a video game nerd and, is into Star Trek, Midsomer Murders and Harry Potter, and she absolutely adores the TV show Almost Human

5.0 out of 5 stars I love this series!!

Giving a lot more understanding to the series I thought the short story was really good. But it was way too short!

4.0 out of 5 stars A Blackwatch Chronicles Young Adult Fantasy Short Story.
Reviewed in the United States on March 23, 2023
I obtained a sample of this story from “Bookfunnel”. It is a fun read and catches your interest immediately. Ashe and Edward are typical young boys who find themselves in a bit of a fix. Eventually they are rescued by a young girl. Magic and adventure abound. There is an added thread involving a big black crow that makes it even more interesting. I can’t wait to read the remainder of the story.

Reviewed in the United States on November 16, 2023
A really cute short story. I love reading about Ryn when she was a child in the abbey. You get to see the bond she creates with Peck. A great quick read. Adds a sense of innocence to Ryn, that comes with childhood.
You can read this before or after the blackwatch chronicles, its a cute peek at childhood Ryn.

This tells you a little about Edward and Ashe and about them getting into a bit of trouble with a boar. Peck helps in a way by calming the boar down and he eventually falls to sleep. Kathryn explaining how her and Peck can communicate. A very interesting short story.
