Hayle Coven Novels

I’m an international, multiple award-winning author with a passion for the voices in my head. As a singer, songwriter, independent filmmaker and improv teacher and performer, my life has always been about creating and sharing what I create with others. Now that my dream to write for a living is a reality, with over a hundred titles in happy publication and no end in sight, I live in beautiful Prince Edward Island, Canada, with my giant cats, pug overlord and overlady and my Gypsy Vanner gelding, Fynn. ***WORLD'S BEST STORY2014*** Her mom's a witch. Her dad's a demon. And she just wants to be ordinary. I batted at the curl of smoke drifting off the tip of my candle and tried not to sneeze. My heavy velvet cloak fell in oppressive, suffocating folds in the closed space of the ceremony chamber, the cowl trapping the annoying bits of puff I missed. I hated the way my eyes burned and teared, an almost constant distraction. Not that I didn't welcome the distraction, to be honest. Anything to take my mind from what went on around me. Being part of a demon raising is way less exciting than it sounds. Sydlynn Hayle's teen life couldn't be more complicated. Trying to please her coven is all a fantasy while the adventure of starting over in a new town and fending off a bully cheerleader who hates her are just the beginning of her troubles. What to do when delicious football hero Brad Peters--boyfriend of her cheer nemesis--shows interest? If only the darkly yummy witch, Quaid Moromond, didn't make it so difficult for her to focus on fitting in with the normal kids despite her paranormal, witchcraft laced home life. Add to that her crazy grandmother's constant escapes driving her family to the brink and Syd's between a rock and a coven site. Forced to take on power she doesn't want to protect a coven who blames her for everything, only she can save her family's magic. If her family's distrust doesn't destroy her first.

Unconscious and on the verge of death, an android appeared before taking him to a spaceship, Spector, which healed him up. Now this Spector wants him to be its operator, so that they can leave Earth. But before that, he needs to settle the grudge he has against those who attacked him and killed his girlfriend.

I'd say 'Ringworld' by Larry Niven is a great one. It's about a huge, artificial ring - shaped world and the adventures that take place there. 'The War of the Worlds' by H.G. Wells is a classic. It was one of the first to really explore the idea of an alien invasion. Also, 'Starship Troopers' by Robert A. Heinlein is a good choice. It delves into military life in a future where humans are fighting an alien species.

Some of the highly regarded science fiction novels could be 'Dune' by Frank Herbert. It has a complex universe with detailed world - building, political intrigue, and a unique ecological system. Another is '1984' by George Orwell, which, while more of a dystopian novel, has strong elements of science fiction in its vision of a totalitarian future. And 'Brave New World' by Aldous Huxley also stands out, presenting a society where technology and conditioning control every aspect of human life.
