New Readers - S. Usher Evans

Welcome, New Readers to the Worlds of S. Usher Evans! I’m so glad you’re here, and interested in learning more about my books and what I write.

When I do events and shows, I always ask my prospective readers the same thing, what do you like to read? By showing up here, I assume you like Science Fiction and Fantasy, so that’s good. (If not… perhaps you should try it!)

Here’s the down and dirty on each of my six series. Click on the title or the Read More link to get all the details – including buy links.

The Seod Croi Chronicles

Winner, 2022 Florida Author Project YA Book of the Year

In six weeks, Princess Ayla will assume the throne left vacant by her murdered father. But without the magical Pennlan stone, stolen by her evil fae stepmother, Ayla fears her reign may be short-lived.

Cade, her best friend and wizard apprentice, has been tasked to retrieve the stone from the dangerous fae realm. Completing this quest will be the last step toward becoming a fully-fledged wizard—and may just win the heart of his beloved princess. But Cade’s not going alone. Ward, a knight eager to prove himself, has been tapped to escort him – and has his eye on the princess as well.

But as their journey takes them farther from home, a mysterious fae girl begins to follow them, swearing their quest is a lie and there’s more to the king’s death then they’ve been told. And most importantly: she knows exactly where to find the stone.

What do you have that’s free?

I see you, freebie seeker. You’re okay in my book. I have two options for you:

If you love YA fantasy, make sure to sign up for my monthly newsletter. You’ll get a copy of The Runaway Princess which is the awesome prequel novella to The City of Veils. Not to mention you’ll get a monthly digest of all the schtuff I’m up to. (Not a newsletter person? My social media links are below, too)

If you’re looking for more gritty urban fantasy, Resurgence is a free, full-length series starter about a widowered demon hunter. But be warned, once you get started, you’ll want to read the full trilogy (and the spin off!)
