Furthermore- Short Stories to Benefit Cancer Research

Happy release day! Furthermore is here and we are all so excited to share it with you.



Buy now for Kindle, Nook, and Paperback

A first date, a lottery, treachery and deceit. Sometimes fate has other plans. Sometimes there’s more to tell.

In Furthermore, seventeen original stories take you on a journey through worlds here and beyond. From the depths of the earth to the embrace of the sea, your favorite series continue. Prequels, alternative views, and new scenes give readers a chance to experience more than originally told. Including stories from Rebekah Campbell, David Estes, Amber Garr, Karen Amanda Hooper, Stephanie Judice, and Leigh Michael.

The best part? In honor of those who lost the battle and those who continue to fight, all proceeds from this anthology will be donated to cancer research and support.

Find out more about your favorite characters from The Darkness Through the Light Series, The Dwellers Saga, The Syrenka Series, The Leila Marx Novels, The Kindrily Series, Saga of the Setti, and Annabelle’s Story.

And now for some teasers…

“Emily Jenkins, corrupting young men. What would people say?” He tutted at me and as if by magic, I spotted an elderly lady walking along the pavement, scrunching up her nose to stare at us. – Surprise Visitor (The Darkness Through the Light Series)

When I thought I might make her lips too swollen from my rough need of her, I pulled away. Those half-open dark eyes could’ve pulled me into Hell, and I would’ve gladly followed with a stupid smile on my face. - Jeremy’s Heart (Saga of the Setti)

Even when you know it’s the right thing to do, running away from home is never easy. They’re not good people. I can’t stay here anymore. – The Runaway-Tawni’s Story (The Dwellers Saga)

He smiled and my heart melted. One look like that and I second guessed every decision I made. – Rift (The Syrenka Series)

I had to entertain myself somehow, and being around these ridiculous humans made me homesick for a land I left centuries ago. – Human Resources (The Lelia Marx Novels)

This too shall pass. I mentally repeated it over and over, hoping Nathaniel’s injury wasn’t as bad as my crumbling heart made it out to be. – The Sound of Love (The Kindrily Series)

Perhaps the hardest thing to accept about one’s fate is that it can take years to unfold. But when it does, it’s worth every second, every breath, and every dream. – Fate (Annabelle’s Story)

The Sun Dwellers Release!!



After this post, I'm taking the day off! Why? To celebrate the release of my newest YA dystopian novel, The Sun Dwellers, the third book in the Dwellers Saga!!

To celebrate the launch, not only will I be gorging myself on my favorite foods all day, but all three ebooks in the series will be on sale for only $0.99 each for NOVEMBER 30TH ONLY! So please please please buy them today if you want to read this series, because you can get all three books for what it'll normally cost you to get one of them! Here are the links!

On Kindle

On Nook

For those of you who have already read the first two books, get ready for another action-packed dystopian adventure with points of view from both Adele and Tristan. For the first time in the series, they'll be together for most of the book, too :) (Sorry for keeping them apart for so long!) More questions will be answered, like what has Tristan been hiding from Adele? and what brought Adele and Tristan together in the first place?

For those of you who haven't started the series yet, you are no longer my friends...just kidding, well mostly kidding ;) But in all seriousness, now is the perfect chance to get on board because you can read all three books in a row with no annoying waiting time in between books where the publisher tries to build up demand and excitement. And you can read all three for only $2.97 if you buy all three today.

So sit back, kick your shoes off, grab a cup of coffee, and start the adventure today. Happy reading!

Your friend,

David Estes
