Prague: once a city of
alchemists, astronomers, heretics, and--it’s even been rumored--portals to
hell, and now the destination of every disaffected, beer-loving kid in a
backpack. But when musicologist Sarah Weston accepts an invitation to
spend the summer at Prague Castle cataloging Beethoven’s manuscripts for the
wealthy Lobkowicz family, she discovers a city filled not with ex-pats, but
with dark magic, where the fabric of time is thin and danger lies around every
corner.
Soon after Sarah arrives, strange
things begin to happen. Her predecessor may have been murdered, and Sarah
finds herself at the center of escalating and dangerous mysteries spanning
several centuries. Who is killing off the academics at the museum?
What secrets of time travel was a sixteenth-century alchemist hiding? Who
was Beethoven’s Immortal Beloved? What Communist-era intrigue is a powerful
American politician willing to kill to cover up?
In CITY OF DARK MAGIC, Prague
comes to life with cinematic scenes filled with excitement and intrigue. With
the turn of each page, you could find murder, paranormal time travel, a handsome
prince in search of the Golden Fleece or a 400-year-old dwarf who holds a
golden key that will unlock the city. Rollicking, sexy and wildly
imaginative, CITY OF DARK MAGIC could be called a rom-com paranormal
suspense novel—or it could simply be called one of the most entertaining novels
of the year, which will leave you anxiously awaiting the sequel.

NOVEL FOR REVIEW: A Soul's Calling, 340 pp., Wanderlust Publishing House, ISBN 13-978-0-61569-535-8
Dear Myckyee,
I know your time is limited and have to be very selective in the books you review, but I would count myself very lucky if you considered my book A Soul's Calling for review on your website.
A Soul’s Calling is a memoir about a man who listened to his heart instead of reason. The book, a work of speculative non-fiction, is part travelogue, part hiking adventure, with shamanism and magic woven throughout.
A Soul’s Calling transports readers to Nepal's rugged but enchanting Khumbu Valley where mountains speak and nature is imbued with a special kind of magic. The novel is an inspiring modern day adventure that weaves the timeless themes of living an authentic life, the consequences of power, and what a man would do for unrequited love.
Scott, a forty-something attorney, is average in every way except one. He has a connection to the Other Side. He speaks to Spirit and Spirit speaks to him. He sees, hears, and interacts with an invisible realm that is beyond ordinary human perception. When Scott learns his soul has been spiritually compromised he travels to the ancient kingdom of Nepal to win it back. Once there, he hikes the Himalaya carrying a mysterious bundle and a stick laden with prayers from Luminous Beings hoping to come face to face with the greatest mountain on earth: Mount Everest. As his journey unfolds, Scott is called on to battle his fear of heights, the thin air, and his physical limitations. Powerful, sweeping, and deeply moving, readers will search their hearts as the book draws to a stunning conclusion.
If this sounds appealing, I would be happy to provide you with a Kindle copy through Amazon. To read an excerpt from the book, please visit www.scott-bishop.com or you can view it using Amazon's Look Inside feature here:
