Two Trilogy Conclusions: Ravenshade & Final Battle

The endings to two different trilogies I've been reading were recently released on Kindle. Both are at bargain prices for a limited time. For those without a Kindle, the second series is available at Mobipocket.com, as well.

Ravenshade ($0.99), by C.S. Marks, completes the Alterra series, concluding the quest of the heroines Gaelen and Nelwyn, Wood-elves of the Greatwood Forest, began in Elfunter ($0.99) and continued in Fire-Heart ($2.99). I expect the sale price on this third volume to rise to the same $2.99 as the second volume, in the next week or so (if not sooner). You can get the entire trilogy for under $5 (under three, if you grabbed Fire-Heart when it was introduced at 99 cents), a bargain and a good read, so far, for the entire family. These are also quite large volumes - this one looks to be close to the same 2.5 MB size as the last one, as it includes all the graphics from the print version, which has a page count of "only" 540 pages versus 732 for the middle volume and for the 516 first.

Book Description
In the third of the Tales of Alterra, the World that Is…

…the Elfhunter is forced into a confrontation with Gaelen of the Greatwood, setting into motion a tale of deceit and betrayal from which neither may emerge. In an effort to prevail over his wily enemy, Gorgon forms a powerful, poisonous alliance with an ancient, sinister force darker and deadlier than any the Company has yet known. Each side must weave a web of deception that ultimately drives them deep into the ruined northern lands, even as the World of Alterra is plunged into war. Will the armies of Lord Wrothgar overwhelm all who stand against them? Does the fate of the Light rest on the shoulders of one small Wood-elf as Gaelen strives to defeat the Elfhunter at last? At the heart of it all is the Stone of Léir and the mighty but forlorn spirit trapped within it.

The second trilogy that has been completed is In Her Name, by Michael R. Hicks, concluding with the volume Final Battle ($1.59). This trilogy was released first as a single volume and was later split into three titles due to the sheer size (bookstores complained about the print edition). The author has been hard at work on a prequel trilogy, the first of which has now released (In Her Name: First Contact, $4.79), so was delayed getting the separate conclusion volume out for this first one. Not only is it available at a bargain price, he's also lowered the price of the Omnibus Edition that has all three volumes back to the original $5.59 introduction price, as well as each individual volume (Empire, Confederation, Final Battle) to $1.59, letting you choose whether or not you want all three volumes on your home page, or one massive entry where the progress bar moves along quite slowly.

Book Description
In the final book of an epic trilogy, In Her Name: Final Battle picks up where In Her Name: Confederation left off:

Reza Gard awakens in a hospital on Earth after having been in a coma for months. Charged with murder and high treason, he finds himself the scapegoat for a daring plot to assassinate the President of the Confederation.

Escaping with the help of Jodi Mackenzie, who is now hunted for what she knows about the death of the president, Reza discovers that something is deeply wrong with the Empire: the warriors have lost their will to fight. Compelled to step into a trap set for him and Jodi, the two once again find themselves bound for Erlang. But this time it is to meet Tesh-Dar, who has been captured.

Captured and sentenced to death, they can only watch as a human armada gathers for a strike against the Kreelan homeworld. But the human fleet - and humanity itself - will be doomed to utter annihilation unless Reza can save his Empress from death...
