The coastal city of Virfell needed a blacksmith, not an alchemist. However, Sindrick's ability to blend materials provided him with endless ideas. Stones revealed their hidden properties to him, and he became engrossed with his study of the elements-until someone more enchanting than his creations entered town. She wore a mysterious amulet and carried a shrouded past. Will Sindrick be able to unlock the secrets of the gem before it unleashes a dark power? Or will he discover something more in the woman named Eleanor? The Salty Eleanor is a standalone novel that continues the Shadows of Eleanor series. These fantasy stories delve into a realm where magic can be possible, at a cost.Find more of Matthew's books at www.scenerychanges.com
