Lani & The Hussites
Karlstejn Castle is under attack, and the fate of Bohemia hangs by a thread. Who can save it? A fearless knight? A legendary hero? Nope. Just Lani Cloud-a sarcastic, reluctant 11-year-old who'd rather be anywhere else.
What starts as a totally boring school trip takes a wild turn when Lani and her BFF Katchy decide to "explore" (translation: sneak off). Before they know it, they're caught in a whirlwind of epic battles, fiery magic, and a centuries-old weapon so powerful it could change history forever. No pressure, right?
Will Lani figure out how to save the day without accidentally making things worse? Will Katchy finally get the hang of not tripping over her own feet? And will a mysterious old friend lend a hand-or just laugh at their epic fails?
From the author who annoyed every Czech history teacher in the country, Lani & The Hussites is a laugh-out-loud, action-packed adventure full of magic, mischief, and the occasional accidental explosion.
Perfect for anyone who thinks history class could use more fireballs and sarcasm. Seriously-what are you waiting for? Read it before your mom catches you and says, "This doesn't sound educational."
Find the courage. Find the weapon. And maybe... find a better chaperone.

Meet Your New Favorite Indie Author: A Walking Cliché of Chaos and Coffee
Ah, the self-published author-equal parts tortured genius and procrastination wizard. Picture this: a person hunched over a laptop, clad in pajamas that have seen better days, nursing a coffee that's 80% caffeine and 20% existential dread. That's your author. Their "office" is a cluttered table (or let's be honest, the couch) surrounded by stacks of half-read writing guides, an alarming number of mugs, and a dog that thinks your mouse is the perfect resting place of his drooling mouth.
They've spent countless hours Googling things like "how to write a bestseller in one weekend" and "does anyone really read acknowledgments?" and now they've finally unleashed their masterpiece upon the world-armed with nothing but an overworked imagination and a full time job that allows them the time to write.
They live for the thrill of checking Amazon rankings every 20 minutes, even though the only reviews so far are from their mom ("So proud of you, sweetie!") and someone suspiciously named BookFan99. Marketing? Oh, it's basically them screaming into the void on Twitter and Instagram while begging their friends to "just share the link one more time."
They may not have a fancy publisher, a massive budget, or any idea what they're doing half the time, but they've got heart, sarcasm, and a borderline unhealthy obsession with their fictional characters. So go ahead, buy their book. It's cheaper than your morning coffee and way more entertaining. Plus, it comes with the added bonus of knowing you're supporting a writer who's out here chasing their dream one typo at a time.
