    About this ebook

    She holds the line, and that line will not be crossed.

    The world we know is a masquerade. Beyond our sight, monsters and other paranormal threats prowl our cities, the countryside, searching for victims, and all that stand between us and them are a handful of dedicated professional hunters. Those that defend the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth of Nations belong to the Caerleon Order of the Companions of St. George.

    Sir Differel Van Helsing is Director of the Caerleon Order. She is the great-great-granddaughter of Abraham Van Helsing, a direct descendant of King Arthur through his surviving daughter, the master of the invincible vampire Vlad Tepes Drakulya, the wielder of Arthur's greatsword Caliburn, and the Queen's premier monster hunter. She has vowed to protect Sovereign, Church, and Country from all paranormal threats with her very life.

    This first volume contains 8 stories that describe how she came to be director, how she claimed her vampiric servant, how she trained as a hunter of monsters, how she proved herself worthy of her responsibilities, and her relationship with her childhood frenemy Lady Margaret Rose Chesham, as well as facing the first of her great adversaries. Follow along with her as she grows into her potential and fulfills the legacies of her illustrious ancestors.

    Kevin L. O'Brien

    Kevin L. O'Brien was born with a pen in his hand.Well, not quite, but he has been writing for as long as he can remember, at least since First Grade. Writing has always been his first, true love, but it hasn't always been his career. He worked for 15 years as a biomedical researcher, then for 3 years as a web designer. However, after 30 years of trying to be published in print with little success, he has decided to try his hand at self-publishing.He writes primarily speculative fiction -- fantasy, science fiction, horror, and their sub-genres -- but he also likes to try his hand at thrillers, suspense, mystery, and even westerns. However, his stories tend to have a fantasy element, no matter how subtle.Most of his stories involve the following three main characters:Medb hErenn (http://www.medbherenn.com/) -- One-time queen of Ireland, she is over 3500 years old. A warrior and a sorceress, she cannot be harmed by any weapon made by the hand of man.Eile and Sunny, Team Girl (http://www.teamgirlforever.com/) -- They are two adorable, vivacious, fun-loving young women whose motto is ONWARD TO ADVENTURE!!! Yet trouble follows them like a love-sick puppy wherever they go.Sir Differel Van Helsing (http://www.sir-differel.com/) -- The descendent of Abraham Van Helsing and King Arthur, she heads the Caerleon Order, the premier monster-hunting organization of the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth. She commands Dracula, the most powerful vampire extant, and the greatsword Caliburn, better known as Excalibur.He also writes a series of sword & sorcery stories set in an alternative universe known as the Lands of the Dreams of Men.Kevin lives in Denver with his family and 4 cats.For more information, see his website: http://www.kevinlobrien.com/
