Inverted Reality by Fran Lewis Banner

INVERTED REALITY
by Fran Lewis
July 21-25, 2025 Book Blast

 

 

Synopsis:

Inverted Reality is a compilation of five books that teach people, through the characters involved, the consequences of doing harmful, dangerous or mean things to others. The person will face in some cases the “mirror” that will replay their wrongdoing and then ask if they will repent. If not, the mirror will decide their fate for them. Each story has different characters who have done something wrong or evil to someone else. Some of the stories have voices that have been silenced and can no longer be heard. One story describes someone who was wrongly accused. The last part “The Third Choice” is Fran’s favorite. It tells a story about people who do not repent, and fate or consequences will be inflicted, but she won’t tell you how. Some of the stories are fiction while others are true and factual. You, the reader, will decide whether the story is true or false as you enter the world of Inverted Reality. You can decide what your own definition of the title means, and how you would react if you had to face the mirror or the third choice for what you might have done. You decide if it really happened and how you would react.

It’s good vs. evil, and consciousness vs. unconscionable.

The Place of Blood – Rinn-Iru

Conall Book I

by David H. Millar

Genre: Historical Fantasy

.

Over four
hundred years before the birth of Christ, the island of Ériu is a patchwork of
feuding kingdoms, vast plains, and frozen bogs. Battle, intrigue, betrayals,
and courage are part of life for the Celts who call Ériu home.

At the same time, from their underground halls, the mysterious demi-goddesses
of the Aes Sídhe seduce brave warriors, turning men into kings
and binding them with fearsome geis.

Conall Mac Gabhann is content with his apprenticeship with the
local blacksmith. Content, that is, until he finds his family slaughtered in
their home. Two men share responsibility for the massacre: a mad Irish king and
a dissolute Roman. Conall will have his vengeance or die in the attempt.

Accompanied by his childhood love—the beautiful but dark-spirited—Mórrígan,
and the veteran warrior Fearghal, Conall’s quest takes him
northward through unfriendly kingdoms to a confrontation beyond the ancient
earthworks of the Black Pig’s Dyke.

Along the way, Conall and Mórrígan will gather an army and come under the
influence of the Aes Sídhe. If Conall desires, an apprentice blacksmith will
become a king. Who knows what Mórrígan will become?

The Conall Series contains scenes of sex and violence and language
appropriate to the period (400 B.C.) it is set in. It is not recommended for
those under 14 without parental consent.

The Raven’s Flight – Eitilt an Fhiagh Dhuibh

Conall Book II

.

Conall II:
The Raven’s Flight continues to chronicle the story of Conall and Mórrígan and
the epic journey of the warriors from Ériu (Ireland).

Conall and his brooding queen, Mórrígan, lead over two thousand warriors with
their followers across the narrow sea separating Ériu
from Albu (Britain). Their quest: the capture of Cassius Fabius
Scaeva, the dissolute Roman held responsible for the slaughter of their
families.

The Ériu encounter human, natural, and supernatural foes and friends. At the
mercy of the Aes Sídhe, a race of demi-goddesses who demand that he
fulfil his geis, Conall is named the Hand of the Goddess and given
the instrument that will crush the Na Daoine Tùrsach—a tribe of fanatical,
blood-lusting priests.

They battle fierce northern tribes: the Forest People’s one-eyed king, Drostan
Ruadh, opposes their presence, as do the Na Mèadaidh, led by the sly
Finnean Mac Sèitheach. Yet, not all are enemies. The Raven People offer their
support, although it too comes at a price.

Heroes and villains from myth, legend, and history converge in this saga set in
the vast ancient forests, frozen bogs, snow-capped mountains, and mysterious
lochs of Scotland some four hundred years before the birth of Christ.

The Sisters – Na Deirfiúracha

Conall Book III

.

It is 406
B.C. The Gaels tramp battle through the vast forests of Northern Albu and cross
the brooding moors and marshes to reach the grain fields of Southern Albu. The
majestic stone brochs, crannags and dùin of the north give way to the great
hillforts of the South.

The Sisters is the third book of the series. In this tale,
the fearsome women surrounding Conall take centre stage.

A malevolent queen bent on conquering Northern Albu launches an invasion and
kidnaps the twin daughters of Conall and Mórrígan. The king’s and
queen’s blood oath promises no mercy until the young twins are returned.

A merciless assassin stalks the community, and Tadhg is given
the unenviable task of tracking the killer down. His mission worsens when the
signs point to one of the women close to Conall, and he becomes the target.

Which partners are loyal to their hand-fasting oaths, and who will betray them?
Will honour be redeemed on the battlefield?

Amid the battles, betrayals and intrigue, Mòrag, a tall beauty and fearsome
warrior, desires Conall at any cost. A clash with Conall’s queen, also known
as The Dark Huntress, is inevitable.

A Brace of Eagles – Snaidhm Iolar

Conall Book IV

.

Butter-gold
and cruelly hooked, the beak ripped a ragged gash across the newborn’s throat.”

Blacksmith’s son, Conall Mac Gabhann’s only desire was to follow in
his father’s footsteps and enjoy a long life with his childhood love, Mórrígan.
The slaughter of their parents dashed those dreams. Fuelled by vengeance, both
embark on the dark path of retribution.

From the ancient forest, two great eagles take wing. With amber-gold
eyes, Fate and the Goddess watch, ready to
guide and meddle in human lives.

Conall, now Clann Ui Flaithimh’s ‘king over kings’, must complete
his geis—at any cost. He takes another stride closer to Rome and a
reckoning with Marcus Fabius Ambustus. Flat-bottomed biremes carry
Conall’s army across the Muir nIocht to crash on the shingle
beaches of Northwestern Gaul.
New enemies and uneasy alliances flourish. Assassins, treason, and betrayal
thrive.

Above all, Conall values loyalty. Thus, treason within the tribe sours his
belly. Mercy will have no part in his response.

The fourth novel in the Conall series, Conall IV: A Brace of Eagles,
is a rousing epic of Celtic heroes and villains, bloody battles, political
intrigue, honour, betrayal, tragedy and forbidden love.

Retribution – Díoltas

Conall Book V

.

Witch!”
Tullus gasped.
“You are not that fortunate, Roman,” came the menacing reply.”

Blood has purchased a fragile peace for Conall and Mórrígan and
the close circle of friends they call family. However, allies and enemies alike
wonder if the king and queen have lost the thirst for vengeance on those who
slaughtered their families. Alarmed, gods, kings, and despots conspire to poke
the slumbering fire.

Brennus of the Senones smarts at his defeat at Conall’s hands and
covets his lands and wealth. Will a bruised ego and hubris overrule the Gaulish
king’s typical pragmatism?

The Gaiscedach want revenge for the defeat and execution of
their queen. In the dead of night, like cockroaches, they scuttle over the
walls of Lugudunon.

Marcus Fabius Ambustus tolerates no challenge to his plan to be the
Dictator of Rome. But has arrogance blinded him to the enemy he has
nurtured?

The gates of Rome and retribution draw closer. But Conall needs his enemies as
much as his friends. Still, who are enemies and who are friends? It is a time
of schisms and rebuilding, of loved ones endangered, and assassins and spies
revealed.

Yet, there has always been one constant: only the foolish doubt that Conall and
Mórrígan will show mercy to those who threaten their family.

Conall V: Retribution is the final novel in the Conall
series.

The Conall Series contains scenes of sex, violence, and language appropriate
to the period (400 B.C.) in which it is set. It is not recommended for those
under 14 without parental consent.
