The Guardian Cats of New York City: The Watcher On The Shore Is Back!

The cats keep the ancient bargain.

They are still among us, hidden here and there; the cats who remember the Old Compact: you provide a home for us, feed us, take care of us in our illness, and we will protect you from the dangers of the night. They operate below the sight lines of humanity, dealing with dangers that we would never notice until it was too late. They remember the old magics of Freya, Bast and Hecate. They are the Guardian Cats.

Nar-Tali the Gull Hunter is the guardian of Coney Island. He walks the boardwalk after dark, protecting humans at play from the things that hunt the night. But tonight, something is coming out of the ocean. Something huge. And Nar-Tali may need a bit of help to handle it.

The Guardian Cats of New York City: The Watcher on TheShore is available for free Kindle download through this Friday, September 9, and after that is only 99 cents. And it’s available for free on Kindle Unlimited now and forever. Check it out and leave a review!

There is a place in the heart of the City where the lines of force converge. It is a place of peace that used to be a place of vengeance and horror. There is something there, just beneath the surface, that wants to make it a place of vengeance and horror again. And the only thing that stands in its way is a cat named Queenie and a black dog who is much, much more than what he seems.

The cats keep the ancient bargain.

They are still among us, hidden here and there; the cats who remember the Old Compact: you provide a home for us, feed us, take care of us in our illness, and we will protect you from the dangers of the night. They operate below the sight lines of humanity, dealing with dangers that we would never notice until it was too late. They remember the old magics of Freya, Bast and Hecate. They are the Guardian Cats. Kodama is a young cat who lives in a quiet, peaceful neighborhood.  He has heard the stories of the guardian cats and he dreams of becoming one of them, but first he must face a threat that strikes much closer to home.  Something terrible has entered his quiet neighborhood, and it threatens his humans, the kindly giants who took him off the streets and gave him his name.   As he faces one of the hatchlings of the Serpent of Darkness, Kodama must decide what price he is willing to pay to protect the humans who have opened their home to him.

For Real This Time

Back in March, I gave notice that I would be taking down short stories posted on my blogs and republishing them on Amazon. For various reasons, that didn’t happen yet. But it will happen soon.

I’m going to be away from my computers for the whole week next week, but after that, we get started. As promised back in March, I’ll be taking the stories down from my blogs and republishing them at Amazon. For the first five days they’re back up at Amazon, they’ll be available for free download. After that, they’ll be free through Kindle Unlimited.

Stay tuned.

Clan Brennan Free Giveaway for St. Patrick’s Day

So how’s this for a St. Patrick’s Day, I ask you? No parades. The bars are still open for now but highly inadvisable. Even mass is affected in a bunch of little ways to avoid sending those older parishioners off to their reward before their time.

But we all do our best, don’t we? My wife and my sister and I had our own little celebration with corned beef and cabbage and potatoes and a viewing of The Boondock Saints.

In the same spirit, you might consider making it part of your celebration to read the story of an Irish family who continue St. Patrick’s tradition of driving out the dark things.

So in honor of St. Patrick’s Day, The Clan Brennan Family Album is available for free Kindle download now through Thursday 3/19.

And hey, if you still need something to read after that, my entire library is always available for free reading on Kindle Unlimited.
