Destiny Cycle Three Content Creation Phase Complete!

Destiny Cycle Three Content Creation Phase Complete!

I am pleased to announce that the Ćroí Dàn - Heart of Destiny, Dàn Cycle Three content creation phase has been completed! I'll be editing for the next week or two, then hand it off to a few early readers, and I expect to send it off to my editors in early April!

The manuscript is 100K words, a bit longer than the previous two novels. We'll see what my editors cut out for pacing!

Best - Author James Raquepau

P.S. Some of you might ask how Ćroí Dàn is pronounced in English - it is Kree Dawn! The Goddess cast within the Heart-shaped ruby is also called Mo Chroí by Erin's Hero, Breanna Ban Morna!

Blades of Destiny Soundtrack Release: A Hero's Destiny

Lann Dàn: Blades of DestinyToledo Vintiñi, in collaboration with Bards of Destiny, has released a new Blades of Destiny Soundtrack. This latest track is the fourth song in the coming album. A Hero's Destiny follows chapter three in the novel. Toledo captures Breanna Ban Morna's quest for the magical Lann Dàn nicely, keeping to the setting of fifth-century Ireland as the track builds toward locating the diamond long blades wrought by Badb Catha, the Tuatha Dark Goddess, in the rugged Cuilcagh Mountains.

In reflecting on the feel of Blades of Destiny Chapter Three - Quest for Lann Dàn, I love how A Hero's Destiny finishes with an epic flourish!‍

The new soundtrack releases (along with each novel's song) are available on Apple Music, Spotify, and YouTube Music! Listen today!‍ Just search for Bards of Destiny!
