A Historical Fantasy Featuring Elves, Faeries, Dragons as Well as Sword and Sorcery Are Sure to Delight in This Novella.

Online, December 3, 2013 (Newswire.com) - In Chivalry and Malevolence, (USD $6.00 Fictitious Publishing), the opening Novella to the greater Nine Realms Series, author Rae Z. Ryans has based her writing on Alfheim, one of the Nine Realms of Norse mythologies, also known as the Realm of Light. Since little is known about the mythical inhabitants, it enabled her to recreate the world as she saw it. She included a 14th century English Knight to add to the storyline.

"My hope was two-fold," says Ryans. "Sometimes doing the "right thing" goes against everything we've learned. The second was, the power to change rests within ourselves. It is a book about two souls who embark on a journey of self-discovery and healing."

The Alfheimian Unseelie Court sentenced an innocent man to death. The elven Princess Morgana refused to sit idly by, as her people murdered the human Knight. Without her Myst, she must rely on courage and quick wit to save him. Enveloped in her own masked prison, she must break herself free. The laws of her people demanded his death. Turmoil - not love and respect - ruled the Unseelie Court. Could she break the mold to rescue the chivalrous silver-man? The Myst loved him.

Sir Thomas Graftfield did not question his duty or honor. He held his faith and codes close to his heart. Upon returning home from the crusades, he accidentally wandered through a portal and in the blink of an eye, his life changed forever, as the strange creatures surrounded him. Captured and facing certain death, the young knight sought solace in his final hours. He did not expect to find it in the shrouded woman.

Mori remained his only hope, but to save him, Thomas realized she must first save herself.

Ryans is on a five day virtual book blog tour beginning on Monday, December 2nd and ending on Friday, December 6th, 2013 organized by Book Marketing Services, http://www.bookmarketingservices.org.
