Hello to all,
My name is Samuel J. Fisher. I would like to take this opportunity to introduce a book I have just recently completed. It is called "Sword and Honour Shadows and Rose". It follows the story of Rowan, a Templar Knight of the past, and Christian, a man of our time. Rowan's lineage escaped the purge and persecution of the Templars in France and throughout Christendom in 1307. They managed to escape over the Jura Mountain range and into Switzerland. Rowan was born to lead the Temple but failed. Rowan did manage however to hide the Templar Treasure and Lore for over 600 years. Rowan's soul and voice was awakened by Christian's presence hiking through the Jura Mountains and the River Aare in Switzerland. Rowan then leads Christian on a remarkable quest and perilous adventure to bring his story to our world and time. It is a very good read. My problem is that it is almost impossible to find an agent these days to take a chance on a new author, and most publishing companies will not even open a submission unless it is backed by an agent. Out of pure frustration I posted my book on the Kindle Store at Amazon.com for the Kindle, IPad, Playbook and all other e readers just to find some sort of readership and following hoping to gain momentum and get recognition. The book sells for $4.99 US for the complete novel or $2.99 US for each of three parts. I am working on a great number of other manuscripts. The ones showing the best promise are called "Six Dreams", "One Night As A Hitman", "Surgeons Blade", "My Thai Affair", and are all between 50% and 90% finished. What is the point if no one will take a chance and read them!!!
