I changed my alliemccormack.com website to Wix, and unfortunately it doesn’t seem to have a WordPress plugin. So… I migrated it here to my not-author website, farhorizons.net.  All the content is here, but the images, including the background, still point at alliemccormack.com, which is a real p.i.t.a., but I’ll work on it, I promise! It just might take awhile.


In the meantime, here's a picture of Levi (on the ottoman) and Tobi (draped over the back of the recliner)

Readers’ Favorite has awarded 5 stars to When Darkness Falls: The Palace!! What the reviewer had to say:

When Darkness Falls by Allie McCormack is the first book in The Palace trilogy. It is a story of compassion, good fortune, humor, and challenges. I loved the story because of how realistic it was, despite being set in a fabled land. I could relate to Alyssa’s behavior because I was also in dreamland when my first paycheck hit my bank after university. Allie is a gifted storyteller, a very descriptive one with a vivid imagination. It was as if I explored Al Khair with Alyssa. I laughed a lot, especially when I imagined myself coexisting with vampires, shifters, demons, djinns, mages, elf hybrids, and more. Allie developed beautiful characters, and I enjoyed the relationship between Alyssa and Remi. Her writing style impressed me, making it easy to follow the story. I am committed to this trilogy.
