About Kim Cormack
A Note From The Author.
I began writing this series shortly after my M.S diagnosis. I had many reasons to fight. I had incredible children, family and friends, but this series gave me purpose. Whenever things become dark, I use my imagination to find the light within myself. No matter what life throws your way, you are stronger than you believe. I hope the character's strength becomes an inner voice for the readers who need it. Stand back up, and if you can't stand, rise within yourself. We are all beautiful as we are. We are all immortal.
All heroes are born from the embers that linger after the fire of great tragedy.
She slept a dreamless sleep free of dragons for she had slain them once again.
Fantasy adventure, magical realism, non-stop action with laughter, tears and a coming of age paranormal romance that will capture every reader's heart. A story of a teenage girl who overcomes tragedy and evolves into something she never knew possible as her immortal destiny comes to light. This paranormal fantasy will leave you breathless as it takes you through the darkness and leads you back out into the secret world of immortality triggered by choices in the afterlife.
The end of her life is only the beginning of her story.
This series is what would happen if Hunger games and Divergent hooked up and had a baby!

She had never coveted the role of princess. She'd always wanted to be the hero.
Would you live your life differently if you knew the Correction was coming for you? They have allowed you to live until the age of sixteen because they want you to fight back. Your family line will be erased from this world sometime around your sixteenth birthday. You and your twin sister were never meant to be born. There will be no place to run and nowhere to hide.

If your answer is yes, then hold on tight.
Behind The Series ☥
One thousand years ago, procreation became illegal under the immortal law. Any suspected offspring will be allowed to live until the age of sixteen. At this time, a Correction will be sent to erase their family line. If your bravery has impressed the Guardian's of the in-between, you may be granted a second chance at life as a sacrificial lamb for the greater good in one of the three Clans of immortals living on earth, Ankh, Trinity or Triad. The symbol of your Clan will be branded into your flesh, and with this mark, you will no longer be permitted through the hall of souls each time you die. At eighteen you will be sealed to your Clan. They will train your partially mortal brain to adapt to immortality. Your next feat will be, Immortal Testing where you will be dropped into a floating magical Crypt the size of New York City into a Testing fuelled by your worst nightmares. In this personal hell, anything can happen. Here, you must die thousands of times to prove yourself capable of being immortal. Three Clans go into the Testing. Only the first two to reach the Amber Room will earn their freedom.

Sleep, sweet sleep till the morning. Just dream away and close your eyes. My love, you'll be safe until the morning, sleeping in my heart all through the night. Although bad dreams come to scare you. My love will scare them all away. My heart...
The lights flickered, the pain went away, and her mother was holding her, singing "Sleep, sweet sleep."

The end of her life is only the beginning of her story.

If the answer is yes, then hold on tight, it’s going to be one hell of a ride!
The monster hadn’t come for her during the night as she’d imagined a monster would when she was small. Those were the childhood rules. You only ever had to be afraid of monsters in the dark. Now that Kayn was grown up, she understood that anyone could be a monster on the inside.

She had never coveted the role of princess. She'd always wanted to be the hero.
This is not a fairy tale. This is a nightmare.
Kayn is with Clan Ankh, Kevin is with Triad, and she's lost everything. It's time to pick herself up, dust off the cobwebs of despair and meet with destiny.
An exhilarating paranormal fantasy, action-adventure, magical realism thrill ride. You'll be weak in knees swooning and on the edge of your seat cheering as they train for the Immortal Testing. It's like a thousand ways to die with dark comedy and scenes that will make you blush. There also may be cannibalism, dinosaurs, rat spiders, tar lizards and stone lions that hack up ice loogies. Welcome to Immortal Testing. The new Ankh are about to be dropped into a floating crypt the size of New York City in another world full of their worst nightmares, where they must die thousands of times to prove they're capable of being Immortal.
Her arms floated freely as angel’s wings, having been released from the mortal chains that bound her to this reality. She’d been set free. Her empty vessel floated down the liquid corridor. Even though her eyes remained open, they could no longer see. The strands of her golden hair danced through her liquid nightmare to an unheard song. She was gone…
With a breath and a gasp, Kayn awoke in the Testing, soaked to the bone in the same corridor but it was void of the water she’d submitted to.

The girl that looked to fields of bees for solace was gone. She couldn’t be the girl that saw purple flowers and reminisced about her best friend slipping one into her shoe as a child. He was gone. She wanted to burn this whole field to ash and kick it into the air. She wanted to do that to every memory she had of him. He’d slit her throat during the Testing and left her to bleed out into the sand. When she’d retaliated, she’d become a Dragon. She wanted to destroy everything beautiful and right for it was all a lie...

NO JUDGEMENT. NO FEAR.
Our Heroine is a hot mess of emerging abilities and inappropriate behaviour. The Daughters of Seth Prophecy is underway, and every dark entity out there is trying to stop it. It’s a gong show of sexy pulse-racing, bust a gut laughing mishaps embracing their afterlife duties while gaining powers. Attachments cause drama as Ankh awaits a birth to begin training the next group of Correction survivours for their Immortal Testing. You’ll be on the edge of your seat with jaw-dropping plot twists that will blow your mind and make you question everything.
The crackling tires were echoing. She should ask them to pull over, something was happening to her. She’d had this sense of ability related foreboding before, it rarely went well. Deep breath in. Deep breath out. Be calm. Her peripheral vision flickered ominously. Her heart was thudding like she ran a marathon. She’d been asleep for a day and a half. She needed to feed her ability but didn’t want these new people to know she fed off immortal energy. It might make things awkward. Killian smelled amazing. He had sweet, tasty, potent pheromones. She needed to get out of here. She wiped her brow. Her throat was so dry, she could barely swallow. If she ate them all, they’d have a nice long nap. Usually, someone called her out on her feral inner commentary by now. Maybe they couldn’t hear it? That was unfortunate, survival of the fittest wise.”

After a dark past, a teenage girl comes back from the dead and becomes a hit-man for a clan of immortals.
Some people are born into this world kicking and screaming. They calm down and manage to find a way to fit into society. They have a mother and a father or perhaps only one of those two. Alexandria Abrelle was the name that had appeared on her birth certificate. Lexy had never known this girl. Lexy had come quietly and subserviently into the world, born to a mother, in a coma during her gestation. She was taken from her mother’s womb as she slipped away into her next life.
Lexy had been living in group homes and foster care as long as she could remember. There had only been a few that felt right, but either she’d outgrown them or perhaps …they just hadn't wanted her anymore. She’d never been given a reason. When it came time to leave the last home she’d been at for a few years, she decided to run away with a few of the older ones. They were all tired of allowing someone else to control their lives. They'd planned to hitchhike across the country. It had seemed like a brilliant idea at the time.
She had been reborn in a place far worse than any version of hell, one could imagine. After many years lost in places void of humanity, Grey found her. He introduced her to a partially immortal family. She’d been saved in so many ways by the Ankh. They were the family that she had always been destined to find. They would teach her to embrace the dragon that resided within. She would learn that both the dark side of her spirit and light were equally important. Lexy would learn of necessary evil.
I know some of you love reading short novellas. Here you go my awesome Children of Ankh series readers! Middle-Grade Novella number one. The novella itself is only 60 pages long. I've added a teaser to the first book in the main series, 'Sweet Sleep.'
Happy Reading XO

Owen awoke to the sound of Darth Vader's rhythmic heavy breathing. A very cool birthday gift or so she’d thought at the time. It had easily taken her half of the night to fall asleep and it felt like only five minutes had elapsed since she’d managed to tune out the droning voices in her head and closed her eyes. No, no, no…I don’t want to get up. Owen misjudged her swing for the snooze button and yanked on the cord. Darth landed right on her face. It hurt like hell. She covered her eye as she wandered over to look at the damage in the mirror. That was going to leave a mark. When your morning starts with a black eye from Darth Vader, you just know the Sith is going to hit the fan. This day was going to suck.
In book two of our ass-kicking anti-heroes side series, Lexy of Ankh embraces her duties as an emotionless hitman for the smallest of the three partially immortal clans and even though Lexy is trying to make good choices, nothing makes it easier to get over the devotion she feels for her Handler, Grey. The three newest members of Clan Ankh are dropped into their immortal Testing, and as they begin their unsurvivable scenic tour through their worst nightmares, Lexy goes with the rest of Ankh to the Summit in another world run by Third Tiers. After being ironically partnered with a nemesis in the arena, the unlikely duo finds themselves bound by an intimate secret. Two clans survive the Testing and as always... the third remains trapped inside. The Ankh get absolutely wasted at a banquet where they have no rights and restrooms are death traps. They are forced to hang out with pure blooded immortals who enjoy fun hobbies like virgin sacrifices and cloning famous mortals for some rather dark entertainment. After a shocking list of plot twists and turns... we find ourselves back on Earth preparing for the rest of the shit show.
A sexy sci-fi dark paranormal fantasy thrill ride! The Daughters of Seth Prophecy has officially begun! With their Guardian abilities unlocked in a mystic ritual, the Dragon sisters of Clan Ankh slice and dice their way through the afterlife, saving mortals by comically clearing out demons, hybrid infestations, triggering powers they have no idea how to use. After the Guardian paternity bombshell, Lexy knows her Guardian sire purposely left her to be tortured for five years so she'd have a shot at surviving her Correction and Immortal Testing. First-Tier souls need to be broken to be built. They needed a part human, part Guardian and were willing to sacrifice her youth. What does one do with information like that?
Stretching her Supernatural Handler bond to its limit by seeking pleasure to dull pain tosses a bomb her relationship with Grey. When your pastimes include murdering two hundred demons at dusk and traipsing through the wilderness as a stone-cold feral assassin for a Clan of immortals, you're waving a red flag. Orin was surprisingly alright with being a relief pitcher. Tiberius was becoming impossible to resist, and Grey was boiling rabbits in the backyard, jealous...What could go wrong?
The end of her life is only the beginning of her story.
Would you live your life differently if you knew you were going to be corrected from this world after your sixteenth birthday? You and your twin sister were never meant to be born. There will be nowhere to run. No place to hide. You won’t even know they’re coming. Do you have what it takes to survive your Correction? Could you leave your humanity behind?
