SC Hutchinson's Latest Developments

While the world of the Marked Souls Saga remains poised on the edge of a primordial awakening, the battle for Book 3 is happening much closer to home. For those who have been holding their breath since the final pages of Winter’s Echo , I am thrilled to pull back the curtain on the next chapter of Eilif and Linnea’s journey: Rune of Ice and Hail . The Sword of the Father Eilif Askildsen has spent twelve centuries trying to bury the man he was. He thought the blood-stained legacy of his lineage was at rest, but the past has a way of clawing its way back to the surface. In Rune of Ice and Hail , Eilif is confronted with the impossible: the reappearance of his father’s sword. A weapon he thought was lost to time and earth has returned, and with it, the cold realization that some destinies cannot be outrun—even by a Destroyer. The Council’s Shadow and the Age of Tyr While Linnea remains Eilif’s anchor, the Council of Elders is determined to see the ship sail into a dark horizon. The tens...

Hello my wonderful readers....while there are some of you who have stuck with me through this difficult time, these difficult years, I want to express my gratitude to you.  Those who are new, I say welcome.  I have changed some direction from the last time that I self-published.  I am more...deliberate, less...impulsive in my attempts to bring you the stories that flow in my head.  Perhaps that comes with age.  Perhaps that comes with the emotions that grief brings.  I was always 'daddy's girl'.  I idolized my father.  Sure, we disagreed, we clashed a lot, but that was because we both have a penchant for being stubborn when we think we are right.  Who really knows?  Still, the loss of my father has brought about many changes in my personal life.  Life is an interesting journey full of so much, whether bad or good.  So, without further ado, here is a short unofficial synopsis of Winter's Echo: Mark of the Gods.   Synop...
