Publication date: October 10th 2019

Some things never die. Hope. Heroes. Defiance.
Things take a strange turn for Dulcea, the elven enchantress turned war heroine and Dragonmistress, when a countryman’s betrayal lands her in enemy hands.
As she awaits her execution, a stranger with mysterious powers offers her another chance at life. Will she die here or risk what sinister fate he has in store for her?
Can Dulcea reclaim her rightful place and lead her army once more? Or does Krath, the man who travels the Realm of the Dead as one of its own, prove to be the obstacle that fells her rebellion?
… Or will this immortal vampire warrior turn out to be the best chance she has of defying the ancient evil arising in the west?


Music evokes emotions. That’s why there’s music in films and tv series; it becomes especially effective at high emotion moments and makes us sympathize or empathize with the characters.
I never write without music. Here is a playlist that worked well for me while writing, and even now I find it describes well the atmosphere of the book.

1. Dance D’Amour – The 69 Eyes

Thank you for checking out my playlist for Immortal Defiance. A few of these songs are either fully instrumental or in a foreign language I cannot understand, but they speak to the part of my soul which loves beautiful things.

Author Bio:
“I live in my own little world. But it’s ok, they know me here.” (Who besides me has this fridge magnet; raise your hand!)
That’s sometimes what it feels like. Who says stories aren’t real? I live in the land of the Midnight Sun and Polar Nights, together with my husband and daughter, and a cast of fantasy characters running around in my head. It’s busy here. Care to stay and chat a while?
Laura Maybrooke is an 80s’ child, who works too much and writes too little, but who’ll never say no to a thrilling romance, a high fantasy adventure, or a cookbook full of delicious treats she’d like to bake one day.
