A Crown for Cold Silver by Alex Marshall
"It was all going so nicely, right up until the massacre."Twenty years ago, feared general Cobalt Zosia led her five villainous captains and mercenary army into battle, wrestling monsters and toppling an empire. When there were no more titles to win and no more worlds to conquer, she retired and gave up her legend to history.
Now the peace she carved for herself has been shattered by the unprovoked slaughter of her village. Seeking bloody vengeance, Zosia heads for battle once more, but to find justice she must confront grudge-bearing enemies, once-loyal allies, and an unknown army that marches under a familiar banner.
Five villans. One Legendary General. A final quest for vengence.
Marshall, Alex: - Alex was born in Greenock, Scotland in 1943. His passion for music began in his early years and continued into his adult life as a piper with the Black Tusk Caledonia Pipe Band. He enjoys singing and playing his guitar. His love of soccer gave him the opportunity to play semi-professionally with Port Glasgow Juniors.
Following a brief career as a policeman in Greenock, he emigrated to Sydney, Australia in 1964 to pursue a career in education. He graduated from Alexander Mackie Teachers College with a teaching certificate and taught for three years as an elementary school teacher in Sydney. To augment his salary, he played semi-professional soccer with Cumberland United.
In 1970, he moved to British Columbia, Canada, where he began a thirty-six year career in education as a teacher, principal and Director of Instruction. Alex earned a Bachelor of Arts Degree from Simon Fraser University in Vancouver, Canada majoring in English with a minor in History. He has a Masters Degree in Educational Administration from the University of Victoria, Canada.
After his retirement, he and his wife Gina moved to Kingston, Washington near Bainbridge Island where Gina grew up. Retirement has allowed Alex time to enjoy family and friends, write his first novel and play the bagpipes at cultural events.
Alex has two children, both married, who live in British Columbia. He is especially proud of his two beautiful grandchildren. His grandson Cameron created the illustration for the Ravenscraig book cover....
