My adult portal-fantasy novel *Ring Keepers and the Quest for the Dragon Stone* is free on Kindle 6/15 thru 6/19, and I'd be grateful for honest reviews.

Mike Stone is sixteen, overlooked, and quietly in love with his best friend Kelly. The most interesting thing in his life is a box his grandfather has kept hidden for sixteen years — and inside it, a leather journal sealed with a clasp that opens only for Stone blood, etched with five overlapping rings and the words *Property of the Ring Keepers*. When the journal starts growing rings overnight, Mike, Kelly, and their loud, loyal friend Johny are pulled across into Etheris: a world of hollow mountains and wrong-colored skies, where a whole season can pass while barely a day goes by back home, where the realm's ruling council is split over whether to train these newcomers or simply put them to death, and where the elemental arts — earth, air, water, fire, metal, and a forbidden sixth — can save a world or break one.

Because the last person to reach for all of them was David. Fifteen hundred years ago he was the most gifted Ring Keeper alive, and he tore a wound in the world that never healed. He didn't die. He's hunting an artifact called the Dragon Stone, and if he finds it first, nothing in Etheris can stop him — which leaves three half-trained teenagers as the only thing standing in his way.

It's a big adventure — a disgraced master haunted by the students he lost, an immortal library-keeper, a silent knight and his winged mount, a quest through a mountain range that eats your memory — but underneath it's about quieter things: the kid everyone wrote off, the cost of carrying everything alone, the difference between being needed and being loved, and a choice that arrives in a single breath, at the cost of the world and the cost of the heart.

Free through June 19th. If you read it, an honest review means the world to a self-published author. Link: [https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0H5526M55](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0H5526M55)
