  As Long as We’re Alive, Problems Will Arise APR 21 Posted by  Literary_Titan L.S. Franco Author Interview Pandora’s Box  follows a 14-year-old boy who discovers he is a demigod like his late mother. His life has become a whirlwind of magical schools, ancient mythologies, and adventure while he tries to prevent evil from taking over the world. What was the inspiration for the setup of your story? My son was my inspiration. When I became a mother, a new fear was unlocked: what will become of my child if I am not here tomorrow? I wanted to write something that could speak to him, nurture him, and entertain him, while leaving him with the values I hope I will have the time and support to instill in him. The MC’s name is my child’s name: Liam. His mourning is built on my biggest fear. The chaos the MC faces is nothing but the chaos of life. We tend to think our problems are the biggest in the world—and for us, they are. But it’s important for children to ...

  The Temporal Scythe,  by LS Franco: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Reviewed by Sally H. (ARC Edition) LS Franco’s  The Temporal Scythe  is a masterfully constructed crescendo of myth, memory, and multiversal consequence—a rare kind of finale that doesn’t just end a story, but  elevates everything that came before it . With piercing insight and luminous prose, Franco delivers the final installment in the  Conjurer’s Prophecy Trilogy  with the weight of prophecy and the intimacy of a whispered goodbye. At its core,  The Temporal Scythe  is about  transcendence —not only across timelines and dimensions, but across the emotional architectures of the human heart. We follow Liam Hale, a boy no longer unsure of who he is, but now standing at the convergence of love, sacrifice, and cosmic purpose. His journey is not linear. It spirals—through pain, vision, faith, and loss. Franco’s writing is a  miracle of juxtaposition : vast in scope, yet delicate in execution....
 🪐  Book Review: The Temporal Scythe  by LS Franco. Less than two months for The Temporal Scythe to be available! Check out some amazing reviews the book is receiving from the ARC Readers: Reviewed by John P (ARC Reader) In  The Temporal Scythe , LS Franco closes out the Conjurer’s Prophecy Trilogy not with a whimper, but with a metaphysical roar. The final chapter of Liam Hale’s journey is a collision of worlds—literally and figuratively. As timelines unravel and identities fracture, Franco invites readers to ask the biggest questions of all: Who are we when time runs out? What are we without love? Set against a backdrop of collapsing dimensions, soul trials, and magical warfare, this book pulls no punches. The stakes are cosmic, but never distant. Liam’s emotional core—his longing, his guilt, his growth—is the beating heart of this sprawling finale. The cast, too, shines in their final arcs: Ada finds her own strength beyond regret, Zoe steps into her own prophecy...
🌀 What Makes  The Conjurer’s Prophecy Trilogy  Unique? If you're wondering what sets LS Franco’s  Conjurer’s Prophecy Trilogy  apart in the world of speculative fiction, here are the key elements that define her storytelling: ✝️  Spiritual Warfare with Cosmic Consequences At its heart, the trilogy explores the unseen battles between light and shadow—where faith, doubt, and destiny collide. But this isn’t a simple good-vs-evil tale. It’s a deep dive into prophecy, sacrifice, and the price of power, set across a Megaverse on the brink of unraveling. 🌍  Multiverse Worldbuilding This isn’t a one-realm fantasy. Franco builds layered, symbolic realities—each with its own history, logic, and cost. From the eerie depths of Tartarus to the storm-washed skies of Downtown, every realm pulses with narrative purpose. ⚖️  Systemic Magic with Real Consequences Magic here is more than spectacle—it’s a discipline, a philosophy, and a weight to bear. Everything operat...
