About Ferryl Shayde – Book 6 – Animal Magic:
The Tavern has survived both Robert de Beaumont and the Sheffield Eight, but has it been fatally damaged? Rachels’ Shunning still causes unrest, while many are shocked by the deaths of Taverners and allies, and the number of badly injured. Meanwhile Jenny steps into her role as the new Mistress of de Beaumont, an old, traditional demesne with scores of apprentices.
Underneath the grief and confusion, Isabella’s poison is spreading. The Taverneers are wrapped up in their own reactions to the deaths, their new bodyguards, and projects. Abel and Kelis are both trying to keep the secret, even from each other, but something magical is drawing them together.
Abel discovers that another myth is real, Kelis discovers more about the origins of magic than she ever expects, and Jenny finds herself refereeing a four-hundred-year-old rivalry.
A race against death leaves Kelis with a new distraction, though not as dangerous as Jenny’s Pack. With the parties at Christmas and New Year as further distractions, none of the Taverneers realise how far the rot has spread, but some Adepts are working overtime to catch Isabella in the act.
As rumour and fact merge and splinter, Abel is left trying rescue all he, and the Taverneers, hold dear from the resultant chaos.

Author Bio:
Vance Huxley lives out in the countryside in Lincolnshire, England. He has spent a busy life working in many different fields. Eventually, Vance tried writing though without any real structure.
Then he actually sent one off to be read which delivered at least one bucket of very cold water (but a polite and informative bucket). As an editor and beta readers explained the difference between words and books, he tried again.
Now he tries to type as often as possible in spite of the assistance of his cats, since he is no longer mobile. An avid reader of sci-fi, fantasy, and adventure novels, so his writing tends toward those genres.
He also spends much too long wandering off down those fascinating blind alleys that the internet produces when researching, but oh, the little treasures at the end of some!
