Sole heiress to a forbidden craft, Eolyn lives in a world where women of her kind are tortured and burned. When she meets the mysterious Akmael, destined to assume the throne of this violent realm, she embarks upon a path of adventure, love, betrayal, and war. Bound by magic, torn apart by destiny, Eolyn and Akmael confront each other in an epic struggle that will determine the fate of a millennial tradition of magic.
Praise for Eolyn
“Vigorously told deceptions and battle scenes will satisfy fans of traditional epic fantasy, with a romantic thread.” –Publisher’s Weekly
“Ms. Gastreich's uncanny talent for truly creating a world her readers can become part of is a rare gift, and one she shares abundantly in Eolyn.” –Terri-Lynne DeFino, author of Finder and A Time Never Lived
“Humour leavens the story...but never becomes intrusive or undermines the strong threads of loss, duty, romance and revenge that permeate the book. And the action is often superb.” --David Hunter, author of A Road of Blood and Slaughter
Available in hardcover, paperback, Kindle, and Nook editions. Order your copy today on Amazon or Barnes and Noble.
Meet Selenia, a brilliant and ruthless woman scientist, and her lover Nicolas, intrepid
explorer of uncharted lands. Together, they bring a world of wonder to the port of Talagna, but not without exacting a price. Dare to follow this unconventional romance in a brutal and gaudy age. Dare to discover Creatures of Light.
Available on Kindle for $0.99.

Have a wonderful February

Thank you very much, Rita. I've followed you back.
Hi!
Welcome to Book Blogs! I'm Kate, a young adult author. My second novel, Reaping Me Softly, has just been released by Omnific Publishing last October 30, 2012.
At last they have something in common, but that doesn’t mean life is getting any easier. All while facing merciless bullying from the most powerful girl in school, Arianne’s world is turned upside down after Niko accidentally reaps the soul of someone she loves. This sends them both into a spiral that threatens to end Arianne’s life. But will Niko break his own Reaper’s code to save her? And what would the consequences be if he did?
Grab your copy now at:
Amazon
Barnes & Noble
Omnific Publishing
I hope you enjoy your stay here! Lots of great people and interesting topics. If there's anything you might need, please don't hesitate to leave a comment on my page.
Sincerely,
Kate

We’re Anastasia & Demitra. We’ve been members for a little while now. We noticed you were new, so we decided to drop by and say ‘hi!’ Book Blogs seems complicated, doesn’t it? It’s like that at first, but we promise it won’t be long until you’re chatting up all the members on here (: If there’s anything we can help you with, just let us know. We’d be glad to help.
We also have a fairly-new Young Adult (YA) book blog, and we'd love it if you’d come and check us out at: http://characterized.blogspot.com/
You can also find me on: Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr and Goodreads.
We'd be sure to follow you back as well!
