Beasts of Ayutthaya

Beasts of Ayutthaya: Three retellings of Beauty and the Beast is done and I'm waiting for cover art to publish the whole book later in the month. In the meantime you can read each of the retellings separately, here:

Be Our Guest, story of the closing of Tiger Temple in Thailand in 2017;
White Elephant, folk tale about a woman and a royal elephant in 18th century Thailand;
The Halberd, a combination between a modern tale and an old tale, set in Ayutthaya, original capital of Thailand.

All three are retellings of Beauty and the Beast; all three are on kindle unlimited.

The Halberd

The Halberd A retelling of Beauty and the Beast

On Kindle $2.99
In paperback $6.99 + shipping

The Halberd is the third in a series of retellings of Beauty and the Beast; along with Be Our Guest and White Elephant, it is part of Beasts of Ayutthaya: Three retellings of Beauty and the Beast. Phang is in love with an elephant, Naresuan, in 18th century Thailand. She is a mahout, an elephant trainer, while he is a white or albino elephant, the most royal of the royal. It is a turbulent time in Thailand, with King Taksin the Great reuniting the Siamese yet losing his mental stability. Enemies conspire to keep them apart. In modern Ayutthaya, a young boy finds a halberd, an ancient weapon used by people who fought on elephants. Relics of the ancient capital stir up everyone's imagination.
