about me

Having spent the few years writing my vampire trilogy, The Living and The Dead, (Book One available to read on here - further chapters available on request) I thought I'd try something completely different. For last year's NaNoWriMo (National Novel Wwriting Month) I completed 50,000 words of a teen fiction: Riptide. The first five chapters are posted here. This year for NaNoWriMo, I am again trying a different genre - a thriller. I will be spending all my free time trying to reach the 50,000 word count for the month, so if you approach me for read swaps, I probably won't see your request until the November madness is over!

The name Amerynthe is the creation of Lorenz Huldasson, an American writer now living in Chile, for one of the main characters his first fantasy novel, The Book of Wizards. Amerynthe has magical abilities and is a telepath and empath.

He has finally caved in under my constant badgering and uploaded the Book of Mages and is here under the pseudonym of seenoevil - do have a look if you have the time and enjoy sci-fi/fantasy crossover.

I look forward to receiving all comments - positive or negative - and will reciprocate as soon/often as I can.
If you approach me for a read-swap I will expect you to read first. Similarly, if I request a read-swap, I will be happy to read first.

Amerynthe

Lori is an ordinary girl who, like all teenagers, begins to question what she has always been told. Is she really just ordinary after all?


When you're a child you believe every word your parents tell you. Mine told me I was allergic to chlorine, and that a rare skin complaint meant that I could not immerse more than 10% of my body in water at any one time. I never learned to swim, and I only ever took showers, never a bath. I never went to the beach. I never went out on a boat - and I never questioned them, never considered for a moment that they might be lying, until one night, when I borrowed a friend's dinghy and took it out for a for a moonlight sail ...

*Amerynthe*

Life is simple, isn’t it? You’re born, you live, you die and that’s it. Isn’t it?
But for some, there’s more to life than death.


One full-time job, a part-time counselling practice, a house she can’t afford to live in herself, credit card bills that take every penny – these are the boundaries of Aimée Lincoln’s world. Intellectually she has dealt with the death of her mother seven years ago, but emotionally this is a wound she keeps well-hidden.

Into her counselling room one night comes Tyler, a man who claims to have been a friend of her mother’s. Client-counsellor boundaries break down quickly as Tyler becomes her guide and mentor in the world her mother had always kept hidden from her.

Only Tyler knows that Aimée is the last of a seven-generation line of psychics. Her father had planned to kill her as soon as she was born to absorb her power, but Tyler killed him before he could complete his blood ritual. And what neither Aimée nor Tyler knows is whether her mother’s death had been a freak accident, or an act of revenge.

Aimée knows that people are not always what they seem. Now she discovers that people are not always people. Tyler helps her accept the new reality and life will never be the same again. It will be better.

I didn't think this would be my kind of read at all, but I am enjoying it immensely. I am keen to find out what turns the boy Eddie into the nameless leader known only as The North Korean but I am finding the pace a little slow. It all helps build up the picture, but so far there is little real te... view book

There is little I can add to the comments you have already received. It reminds me a little of Alice in Wonderland, and deserves its place in literary history as much as Carroll's story did. I can't guarantee it a place in history, though, but I can put it on my shelf and wish you the best of luck... view book

Thoroughly enjoying this and very intrigued to find out more. It's well-written and has that page-turning quality that will keep readers hooked. There are a few typos here and there and some inconsistencies with tense in places, but nothing that can't be easily put right. Backed with pleasure... view book

I'm enjoying this a lot more than I thought, and I can see it very clearly in my mind's eye, always a good sign. I like the spareness of the dialogue, the concentration of Null's mind on the pressing question: Who am I? Happy to back the book, even though deep down inside I know that those Nig... view book

I'm cursing the fact that I started to read this halfway through my lunchbreak, and have to return to mundane work after only 2 chapters. Those 2 chapters are enough, however, for me to back the book, and I will comment further when I've had a chance to read more. So far, so good! Best wishes ... view book
