Chronicles of a Hero - Book Tour and Giveaway


Prelude to a Hero
Chronicles of a Hero Book 1
by Jaime Buckley
Genre: YA Fantasy

Nerd. Introvert. He was the hero they never knew they wanted.



All Wendell hoped for was a decent job, a hot new car and a girlfriend to match.



What he got was the mantle of a legendary hero, the heart of a girl who had no idea who he really was…and a diamond bigger than his fist.

What could possibly go wrong?

Prelude to a Hero is book one in the Chronicles of a Hero series, by Jaime Buckley. If you enjoyed Tiffany Aching, Harry Potter or Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, then you’ll love this humorous, original epic fantasy, packed with magic, mystery and sharp kicks to the funny bone.

"I'm already a HUGE fan of fantasy fiction, this book appealed to me as I felt it would be something new and unique... I wasn't left disappointed!"



**only 99 cents**




Race to Til-Thorin
Chronicles of a Hero Book 2

Dream girls. Fried snails. A 30” bodyguard with pink ponytails.


Being a hero comes with learning curves.



The curve of a hip. The curve of a sword. The curve of a sucker punch as it connects with your face.


It wouldn’t be so bad if Wendell had professionals to help him.

Instead, he’s stuck with a feisty gnome, a senile old wizard and a green skinned, cigar-smoking babysitter to guide him.

Is it too late to quit?

Fans of epic fantasy will cheer Wendell on as the Chronicles of a Hero series continues in book two. Those who enjoy the world building skills of J.R.R. Tolkien, J.K. Rowling and Brandon Sanderson will surely get addicted to this original new world.

Feed your fantasy needs and grab your copy today!

"I have not laughed so hard in a long time. I don't KNOW how long it's been. Just when the tension is about to make my heart pop, Chuck or Dax or a situation will pop up and make you laugh."





Into the Fire
Chronicles of a Hero Book 3


Stranded, alone…with a tree sticking out of his bellybutton.



Wendell’s task is simple: get to Til-Thorin Keep.



No problem.

Add to that no map, no help and no flippin’ idea where he is and you have a day in the life of our hero.

Oh wait—we forgot to add the army of cannibals now nipping at his heels.

It just might be the death of him.

Elemental magic and nail-biting action are what you can expect in book three of Chronicles of a Hero. Fans of Dragonlance and The Hobbit will love this new addition to the series.

Don’t wait to grab your copy—buy one today!

"I think this book will be well-liked by those who like Harry Potter, but I think it goes to a new level where those who didn't like Harry Potter can still love this book!"





Trench Wars
Chronicles of a Hero Book 4

Wizards. Elves. Giant Robots with Automatic Weapons.


Wendell is dying for a change of scenery, but Clockworks City has a ban on all outsiders.



It’s a law punishable by death.



So how does a 5’ 10” human hide among 1.5 BILLION gnomes?



By competing in the #1 televised extreme sport in the country, of course.





Enjoy bullets, babes and a bowl of mushroom soup as this series jumps from humorous fantasy to comical science fiction! If you enjoy a good laugh, intense action and unexpected endings, you’ll love book four in the Chronicles of a Hero series.



Grab your copy and keep the epic buzz going!



"(got yelled at by mom to put my Nook away all week....*sigh*) It was that good." 





Second Chances
Chronicles of a Hero Book 5


Fame. Fortune. Thrown into the City incinerator.


Wendell’s chance at the title was always a long shot.

Since then he’s been on TV, Radio and even has the attention of The Church.

Fact is, he’s more popular than ever.

So why are people trying to kill him?
(It’s the cheesy goatee, isn’t it.)





Second Chances is book 5 in Jaime Buckley’s Chronicles of a Hero series. Laugh, cheer and bite your nails as this epic fantasy takes you on a crazy ride, twisting down ramps and out a back window! 



Pick up a copy today!



"You know you have found a great book when you want to slap the author and give the author a hug at the same time, when you take some of the plot turns personally." 





The Truth About Lies
Chronicles of a Hero Book 6

Caught. Tortured. Scheduled for execution. Any Questions?.


Wendell and Dax are exposed and the gnomes of Clockwork City are freaking out. 



Are they spies? Is this an invasion? Was this all just a terror tactic to get gnomes to pay their taxes?



Now with Wendell under arrest and Dax under armed guard, it’s going to take a pardon from President Shrub to set them free.



Good thing Chuck’s planning to kidnap his kids.





The Truth About Lies is book six in the Chronicles of a Hero series by Jaime Buckley. The series that makes you laugh, squirm, grit your teeth and has you begging for more.



Make sure to grab yourself a copy!



"I loved this book because it takes a misfit who was never really liked or appreciated and it shows the beginning of the process of him unlocking his potential and becoming something greater than anyone would have imagined for such a small, insignificant person."





The Price of Fame
Chronicles of a Hero Book 7


Honest Politicians. Humane Terrorists. Religious Devils.

Then it gets confusing…



Wendell’s learned that gnomes are just as irritating and dangerous as humans…they just come in smaller packaging.



Citizens are rebelling, the government’s collapsing, the Church is selling off the poor and Dax’s head on the chopping block.



All Chuck needs to get everyone home is a city wide diversion, a flying S.L.A.G., four lawyers, a hand grenade…and a tiny bit of string.



It feels good when a plan comes together!





The Price of Fame is book seven in the Chronicles of a Hero series by author Jaime Buckley. If you love a good laugh and incredible plot twists to keep you guessing, this book will curl your toes and put a smirk on your face!



"…packed with wild imaginations and inspirations. It’s a rarity that a YA book contains the combination of those three things but Wanted: Hero has them. Seriously, you don’t want to miss reading this book in your lifetime."

One Author, Three Brains.
I thought being an author would be...different.
Not that I'm complaining...much, but it's harder than I thought it would be.
More involved and in my haste, I realized I was just like the people that annoy the living crap out of me right now.
The one's who assume that throwing some words on a page is called writing.
Uh, no.
Believe it or not, writing is not only a job--it's a difficult one. At least if you want to be good at it and make money at it (so I'm told, anyway). Yet many assume you have all this free time on your hands because "he's just a writer".
My goals have been so simple. I don't want to reveal what they are, because I don't want to look like an idiot. However, I will share something important that I've learned during this process of becoming a writer. That's the difference between your brains.
Yes, I mean brains as in plural.
People already think I'm a loon, so I have nothing to lose here--follow along.
There are three brains that I have had to deal with. The first is my writer brain. That's the creative genius...or at least his half-wit cousin that plays a banjo. I use the writer brain to plot, to craft, to shape and generate a world and everything in it. That brain has characters that talk and walk and have conversations with me at all hours of the night. That brain sketches worlds and wonders which I still get chills about.
It's also the brain I like to listen to often.
The second brain is the priority or reality brain. That's the one that knows a clock's ticking and no matter what your loves, dreams and goals are, bills will come and bills have to be paid. It's the brain that says "you need a job, Jack, or move your sorry butt faster and get these books done NOW!" Brain two keeps the tally going of all the in and out's of financial matters, agreements and debts both through written and honorable handshakes (yes, these still exist).
The third brain is the most important to me, but also the most painful and even destructive. It's the love brain. The one that's a father, a husband and it reminds me, not only of all those who believe in me and encourage me...it reminds me when I'm not working fast enough.
It will scream that I'm letting those same people down. It's the brain that shouts at me to create a schedule, not to be more productive, but to create more stability in the lives of others. This is the self-sacrificing brain that can...and many times does, jeopardizes the whole journey.
Each brain has their place and I believe we need all three.
The challenge is finding that balance.
Coming to grips with the needs of each and establishing a truce so that all can function and coexist.
The truth is,...I'm trying to figure out how to lock the little buggers in a closet until I'm done with my next book.
