The author I’m pleased to be hosting for Virtual FantasyCon’s Blog Hop Hunt today is Renee Scattergood, author of the Shadow Stalker serial.

 

Renee Scattergood lives in Australia with her husband, Nathan, and daughter, Taiya. She has always been a fan of fantasy and was inspired to become a story-teller by George Lucas, but didn't start considering writing down her stories until she reached her late twenties. Now she enjoys writing dark fantasy.

 

 

She is currently publishing her monthly Shadow Stalker serial, and she has published a prequel novella to the series called, Demon Hunt. She is also working on a new series of novels, A God's Deception.

 

Aside from writing, she loves reading (fantasy, of course), watching movies with her family, and doing crafts and science experiments with her homeschooled daughter.

"Are you nuts? It's too far away. We'll never make it before they get here!" Deakan said, pointing toward the Galvadi who were heading in our direction.

 

He was right. "Let's head toward the northern forest then, and we can make our way to your hydrocar from there." The forest was about two kilometers from us, but the Galvadi were far enough away we would have time to make it there if we ran.

 

Deakan nodded and took off, and Jade and I followed after grabbing our backpacks. His long legs drove him several meters ahead of us within minutes. When he noticed how far we had fallen behind, he stopped and scanned the hilltop while he waited for us, then let us go ahead so he could keep pace with us.

 

Half way there, Jade came to a halt and bent over panting real hard. She was not as fit as Deakan and I were. "I can't—"

 

I grabbed her arm and pulled her behind me. "Run! They're almost across the lake." In truth I had no idea where they were because we were on the opposite side of the hill now, but I needed to keep her moving somehow. It worked, and Jade began running again, albeit slower. By the time we reached the 5 trees I heard the whine of the vehicle in the distance. I glanced back before joining my friends in the forest, and saw that the Galvadi had reached our camping spot. It wouldn't take long for them to realize where we went.

 

The canopy of leaves dampened the little daylight that was left. Fallen branches and other foliage littered the ground, so it would not be safe for us to continue running. If one of us suffered an injury, there'd be no way we could stay ahead of the Galvadi. As it was, it would take a lot of luck to keep us from being captured. Deakan held up his hand. I stopped moving, but Jade bumped into me.

 

"Voices," he whispered and pointed ahead.
