Castaway King Chronicles: After the Dark
Castaway King Chronicles: After the Dark | Spencer Labbe
7 posts | 1 read | 20 to read
Three friends fight for survival in the world aboveground. Elfin fear the light; but to survive in it they must not hide in the shadows any longer. Pil Persins has never seen the sky. He has never felt the fall of rain or seen the stars on a dark night. For thousands of years Elfin have lived underground, hidden away from the dangers of their world. The coming of the sun above ground means death; monsters awaken and predators hunt. But it is a small price to pay for freedom. At least that is how Pil and his two best friends, Felicity Falon and Dunken Dirk, see it. And that path to freedom is to become an Exidite--a brave band of underground warriors who are allowed out during the night to search for supplies and, if necessary, confront their enemies. But the world above ground is far different than Pil and his friends could ever have imagined. The bright purple sky and thick forests hide beings far worse than their worst nightmares. Yet they persevere, hoping to find some light in the everlasting darkness, some truth in the lies and treachery of their enemies and, in some cases, their friends. Life or death. Freedom or slavery. Love or betrayal. There is no room in between this war of darkness and light. AFTER THE DARK IS THE FIRST BOOK IN THE CASTAWAY KING CHRONICLES SERIES.

I have a book signing tomorrow at the Westlake Barnes and Noble! If anyone on Litsy lives in Ventura County, come by and say hi! I would love to meet you in person!

Side note: we will have free cookies. And other fun Giveaways

Other side note: haven‘t been able to do much as I am busy with edits for the second book, but I will be back to posting soon! I love the Litsy community!

Desha We just moved up to Camarillo about a year and a half ago...we love it up here! My sister has already been up here in TO for a long time and we moved from San Diego so we could all be closer! I know Westlake pretty well mostly because it has the closest BN after the one on Telephone Road in Ventura lol! Congratulations on all your success! 🎉🎊🎉📚 5y
Spencer_Labbe @Desha Nice! San Diego is fun but I definitely love living in Cam! The Westlake Barnes is the best! They still have my book in the wrong section though lol 5y
Desha It‘s great that Westlake seems to have a lot of author events—that‘s awesome! If I hear about another one that you are doing in Ventura County I‘ll try to join in! 👍🏻☺️ 5y

I recently went to a very fancy speakeasy hidden behind a bookcase. Like many of you would have, I fell utterly in love with the place! There is so much magic in this world ✨

Jerdencon Where is this place? Very cool! 5y

Here it is! Thank you @LibrarianRyan for tagging me! #20thingsaboutme is a brilliant idea! Let‘s see who to tag 🤔
 @jerra @Dr._Who_number10 @Velvetfur @WhisperingRealms @LazyDays @sixgun

Give it a go if you haven't already!

Lauram I‘m going to wonder who the mean celebrities are for the rest of the evening. 😕 5y
LazyDays Thanks for the tag! How fun 5y
Spencer_Labbe @Lauram No need to wonder! Lol unfortunately there are a lot. Vin diesel is a terrible human being. Tom Hardy has tried to fight someone every time I work with him. Often for no reason. I have heard terrible things about Ellen but will reserve judgment until I work with her. Demi Lavato is not a nice person. The list goes on and on but I'm running out of space lol 5y

LibrarianRyan 👍🏻🤓😎 5y
Spencer_Labbe @Lauram But there are a lot of good people and it doesn't do to dwell too long on the bad! Lol Shailene woodley is the nicest human I've ever met, Morgan Freeman too, and Nick centenio, Justin Theroux, Brittany Spears, all great level-headed folk. 5y
Lauram Fascinating! Thanks for the information! 5y
Spencer_Labbe @Lauram Of course! It is fairly interesting though admittedly useless information! 5y
Lauram It‘s not useless at all. It‘s like reading a personalized issue of People magazine. 😁 (edited) 5y
Dr._Who_number10 Aww that's amazing!! Can't wait for the book to come out! 5y
ItsAngel I relate a lot to 11 and 12 (: 5y
Spencer_Labbe @ItsAngel hell yeah! Those things can be very difficult to deal with but it has inspired some of my best work (in my opinion)! It's good to talk openly about it all! 5y
Spencer_Labbe @Lauram haha glad you enjoyed it! 5y
ItsAngel @Spencer_Labbe I agree. It always makes me feel better when someone understands that I don‘t know WHY I am feeling blue or anxious. 😊 5y
Spencer_Labbe @Dr._Who_number10 Me too! Book 2 has taken longer than I thought but we are so close to release! 5y
Spencer_Labbe @ItsAngel Yes! It's not your intention, and it isn't always preventable, but when people truly understand that and support you it can mean the world! 5y
ItsAngel @Spencer_Labbe absolutely!! 5y
Crazeedi What an interesting list you created! Thanks for sharing 5y
Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick #11 & #20 tell me we'll get along just fine. 5y
julesG Congratulations on your marriage! 5y
Velvetfur Thank you for the tag, I'll get thinking! Yours is very interesting, and about the long hair one I would assume you had long hair BECAUSE IT'S COOL 😂 (my ideal man would be basically a Dothraki) 5y
CouronneDhiver You‘re very accomplished at such a young age - well done! 👍🏽 5y
Spencer_Labbe @Velvetfur ugh! I agree really long hair can be cool! But it was more early Justin Beiber look and def did not work for me lol 5y
Spencer_Labbe @CouronneDhiver Thank you! I still feel like I haven't done enough sometimes, but I'm doing my best and that's all I can do ✨ 5y
Spencer_Labbe @julesG Thank you! 😁 5y
Itchyfeetreader @number 1 and number 7 you are living my dreams !! 5y
WhisperingRealms I will try this over the weekend. Writing about myself over my own characters sounds like an insightful and perhaps jaw clenching activity. Oh, I‘m totally in by the way! lol 5y
Spencer_Labbe @WhisperingRealms Nice!! Can't wait to read it ✨ 5y
jerra Just saw this! I‘m gonna do mine tonight. 5y
Suet624 What a great list. Thanks for sharing so much about yourself. I started a list, got to #8 and became very shy about the whole thing. 😀 5y

Spencer_Labbe @Vivlio_Gnosi haha unfortunately it‘s a book signing only promotion, it‘s a whole thing 😉 but if you live near Ventura county I'm going to be doing some Barnes and Noble signings in the next few months!  5y
Vivlio_Gnosi It's clearly working :-) I don't live there but I won't turn down being flown out there! Side note: I'm requesting to be a minor, nameless, character who gets killed off early in the book. #WorthaShot 5y
