Demon Days

by Jan Stryvant

  Sean said the first thing that came into his mind.

  "I seek the grail!"

  "The what?"

  "The grail, the holy grail? You haven't seen it, have you? Been looking for it for ages now."

  "Umm, no," Første said and shook his head. "What in the nine hells is a grail?"

  Første opened the door to one of the rooms, and Sean stepped inside.

  "Oh," Sean said, turning back to look at the demon. "If we get any visits from the neighbors while we're busy in here, I can promise you that, after I kill them, I'll kill all of you. Make sure the others understand that this is a very private affair."

  "Yes, Brown Man. I understand."

  Closing the door, Sean looked around the room and laid 'The Brown Lady', as the one had called her, on the bed. It took him a moment to figure out the helm, but he got it off of her, and then stopped and shook his head. "Wow, you're a looker alright. What the hell are you doing here?"

  Afterword

  First off, I want to say that if you enjoyed this book, please go on Amazon and give me a review and a rating. I've said it before, and of course I'll say it again: Ratings are my lifeblood as an independent author, with 4 and 5 star ratings being the ones that help me the most. The more of those I get, the more likely Amazon is to show my work to other folks.

  Secondly, I'd like to apologize for how long it took to get this one out. I'd hoped to have it out about the beginning of December, but I had to go visit family in NY, and while there I injured my back and, well, it's hard to write when you can barely sit upright. Yes, I'm doing physical therapy, and things are a lot better now. But it really sucked there for a couple of weeks.

  As for how many books are left in the series? I'm not sure I know. The current arc will probably be done by fourteen, and I'll probably move on to some other things for a while. But nothing has been resolved yet. I think a lot of it will depend on you, the fans of the series. With the war that's finally started, there's a lot that can be told, so even if I stop at fourteen, I'll come back at some point to continue the rest of the story. Or even some other stories in the same world.

  Again, THANK YOU ALL for reading and enjoying my work. I do it all for you, and you all mean so much to me.

  Some Recommendations: As mentioned before, I do have another name I write under: John Van Stry. If you haven't looked at it, you might appreciate my 'Portals of Infinity' series. It's currently at eight books and will continue, but right now I'm focused on the Valens Legacy series, so I probably won't be revisiting the Portals series until sometime around the end of 2019.

  Some other people I enjoy reading in this genre, and you might, as well:

  William D. Arand (aka Randi Darren) – Please check him out, he's good.

  Blaise Corvin – The Delvers books are really a lot of fun and very much worth it.

  Michael-Scott Earle – one of these days I'm going to bribe him to finish Lion Quest.

  They're all good people and great writers. You may also want to check out this group on Facebook:
