Product Description

Product Description

He caught the pirate. He did the right thing. He'll regret it.

**ILLUSTRATED VERSION**

Captain of the Temple Police is not an easy job. Gerard wasn't expecting it to be easy...but he also didn't expect to have to fight off the Priestess's overtures at every turn. While he isn't against killing, torture seems dishonorable, and a visit to the dungeons leaves Gerard feeling more than a little sympathy for the pirates he's been ordered to capture.

Nevertheless, if he's to protect his gentle, talented wife, Gerard must do his job and eliminate the anti-wyvern pirates. He's made a valuable friend and ally in the wily Admiral of the Temple Sea Watch. Together, they track down the charismatic pirate leader, Gwain, who agrees to meet with them. However, Gwain's chosen site for for their parley is a dangerous island gamepark where the stakes are high, and everyone is prey.

Flames is the second book in the Cowry Catchers 5-part series. The books are:

Embers
Flames
Ashes
Out of the Ashes
Shores Beyond the World

Warning: This is an illustrated series for grown-ups. It includes beautiful, whimsical artwork, because adults deserve pretty pictures, too. However, the explicit elements of the story escalate as the series progresses. There are sexual scenes and situations in these books, as well as types of violence not usually found in children's books. These books are not intended for children or young teens.

This 60,000-word book is DRM-free and carefully formatted. It includes 11 character portraits, 16 full-page illustrations, and a map.

5.0 out of 5 stars More! 22 Mar 2011

What a fantastic volume in the TGotCC series! The cliff hanger is even better than the last. Much more intense action & adventure in this one, plus, continued character development and back-story!
I know I keep saying this, but, I definitely can not wait to see what happens next...

5.0 out of 5 stars Like book 1, but with more mayhem and sex 25 Jan 2011
By A. Watkins - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Kindle Edition
Book 2 of Cowry Catchers is fast-paced and intense. We learn a lot more about our increasingly interesting main characters and their increasingly interesting (and numerous) adversaries. I wasn't convinced that I liked Gerard's sweet little wifey in book 1, but halfway through book 2 I decided I loved her. Like all the characters in Cowry Catchers, she's more complicated and surprising than she seems. If you're as wrenched by the cliffhanger ending as I was, you'll be glad to hear that book 3 is coming out in full cast audio at [...] (hopefully very) soon.

I should mention the illustrations, which add something special to the text. They're very beautiful, and it's nice to see Ms. Hilton's original creature characters as she and artist Sarah Cloutier imagine them. It's just one more signal that this is a story and an ebook made with care and craft. Can't wait for book 3!
2.0 out of 5 stars I haven't yet finished it and don't think I will. 20 May 2013

Maybe I haven't given this book enough time, but so far I haven't been drawn into the story. As a reader, I need to connect to a character or to a cause, but this book starts with too many characters and too much confusion about what is going on for me to get interested. I will save it for a time when I don't have anything else to read.
