He could become a god. He could just burn to death. Son of a mortal king and the earth Goddess, Gaian has known since he was ten that it was possible for him to Become a god, too. The catch is that he’ll have to die—by burning—first. He’s not quite ready to try that yet, especially since fire is the one thing he’s afraid of. He was raised to be a warrior. His father wants him to be the next king, if only to keep him from thinking about Becoming. Neither feels right. There must another purpose for his more-than-human strength. The Goddess must have had a reason for giving him that gift. When he meets Mariel, Gaian is willing to put all thoughts of being a king, a warrior—or even Becoming a god—aside. Little does he suspect that family may be the one thing worth burning for. Inspired by the legend of Hercules. (Noblebright Fantasy, Hercules, goddess, god, warrior, sword)

The Adventures of Thunder and Lightning is a collection of comical situations two mischievous young Beefmaster bull calves get themselves into. Each book is a different scenario with a combination of fact and fiction to entertain the reader. The majority of the characters are actual residents of their farm. This is the second book, Thunder and Lightning Go Fishing. How do calves go fishing? you ask. Well, fishing is the art of trying to catch a fish with some type of bait. There are as many types of bait as there are methods of fishing. You don't always catch one. If you did, it would be called catching, not fishing, so it's very easy for a calf to go fishing but nearly impossible for them to actually catch one. This story is about two calves who go fishing, but do they go catching?
