The Almost Girl by Amalie Howard Book Spotlight! @AmalieHoward @samijolien

Seventeen-year-old Riven comes from a world parallel to Earth, a world that has been ravaged by a devastating android war. As a Legion General, she is the right hand of Prince Cale, the young Prince of Neospes. In her world, she's had everything: rank, responsibility, and respect. But when Prince Cale sends her away to rescue his long-lost brother, Caden, who has been spirited to modern day Earth, Riven finds herself in uncharted territory.

Armed with the mindset of a soldier and racing against time to bring Caden home, Riven must learn how to blend in as a girl in a realm that is the opposite of all she's ever known. Will she be able to find the strength to defy her very nature? Or will she become the monstrous soldier she was designed to be?

AMALIE HOWARD grew up on a small Caribbean island where she spent most of her childhood with her nose buried in a book or being a tomboy running around barefoot, shimmying up mango trees and dreaming of adventure. 25 countries, surfing with sharks and several tattoos later, she has traded in bungee jumping in China for writing the adventures she imagines instead. 

She isn’t entirely convinced which takes more guts. She is the author of several young adult novels critically acclaimed by Kirkus, Publishers Weekly, VOYA, and Booklist, including Waterfell, The Almost Girl, and Alpha Goddess, a Spring 2014 Kid’s INDIE NEXT title. Her debut novel, Bloodspell, was a #1 Amazon bestseller and a Seventeen Magazine Summer Read. She is also the co-author of the adult historical romance series, THE LORDS OF ESSEX. As an author of color and a proud supporter of diversity in fiction, her articles on multicultural fiction have appeared in The Portland Book Review and on the popular Diversity in YA blog. 

She currently resides in Colorado with her husband and three children.

Release Tour of Mirror Image by Michelle Pariza Wacek with #Giveaway! @MichelePW

 

SYNOPSIS

Which would be worse, knowing that your dead sister has come back to life and is now a serial killer or that someone else is the killer….and that person is you?

Six months after Linda's sister Elizabeth killed herself, Linda has finally gotten her life back to some semblance of normalcy. Until a killer appears who is stalking men ... a killer who resembles Elizabeth ... a killer who seems somehow familiar to Linda.

And, to make matters worse, Steve, her old high school crush and now a detective, is assigned to this case. He's asking Linda all sorts of questions, questions Linda couldn't possibly have an answer to.

There's no reason for him to be investigating Linda. She couldn't possibly have anything to do with this. Could she?

Lost Amidst the Cosmic Storm by Mike Phillips Spotlight!

Synopsis: Lost Amidst the Cosmic Storm                                               

For time out of reckoning, the tribe has made its journey, searching the world for their lost brethren. When the long night has passed, its evils sleeping, the sun blessing the land with light and heat, the tribe leaves the safety of their island home. Upon the shores of the great continent they meet with strange and wondrous guides, a herd of giant lizards that are not only beasts of burden, but friends and protectors. Together the tribe and the herd follow the ancient path of the migration, facing the many hardships and dangers of the wild in their search.

But this is to be no ordinary journey. The long night has raged with many storms. The lowlands are thick with mud and stagnant water. Even with the help of the herd, travel is slow. Disease is rampant. Many of the lizards fall dead from some strange sickness that leaves their skin mottled. The mountain passes are all but washed away, nearly impenetrable. Darkness falls as the last leg of the journey comes, and with the darkness, the call of evil creatures rises on the wind.

The tribe is led by a young chief, strong and brave, but also thoughtful and wise. Some key to the past is lost in his mind. He is troubled by dreams about a time and place very different from the one he finds himself in. Of all the other members of the tribe, only he is old enough to remember what tragedy befell the mothers and fathers, and this memory haunts his every waking moment.

Also amongst them travels the mysterious Man-of-Sorrows. Old beyond telling, he is the ultimate law of the tribe. It is he who drives the tribe forward, never letting them become too comfortable in their island home or forget that they live for a higher purpose. He bares a strange penance, cords of light strung about his hands and feet, and he has been mutilated. His tongue has been cut out, and so he cannot share his knowledge of the time before. How he came by these torments, no one knows for sure.

For all the trouble and toil the tribe continues on. They go because legends say that their lost brothers and sisters are a magic people that will lead them back to the heavens from which they came. Through many adventures, the tribe comes to find their lost brethren, a people very different from themselves, and what the tribe learns about their past, their present, and their ultimate future is far stranger than they could ever imagine.

They are not natives to this world. They are the children of colonists, come from a planet far away, a planet called Earth. When the colonists reached the place that would become their new home, tragedy struck. The sun exploded, sending solar flares of incalculable magnitude into space, destroying their fragile technologies and making them crash land on the planet’s surface. Many of the colonists survived the disaster, only to be killed later by savage predators in the dark places of the world. But the children were protected by the herd, though too young to know their own history, building a mythology about those they seek and the strange circumstances they find themselves in. This story tells of the children’s last journey through the wilderness and what happens when they finally find their brethren and rescue.

He’s taken hostage by the robbers. Now he has to save his life.

Praise Blood Drama by Christopher Meeks

"Blood Drama is highly entertaining and extremely enjoyable. It is a combination black comedy and crime novel." - Lori Lutes, She Treads Softly" "A murder mystery filled with interesting characters, harrowing encounters and a bit of a love interest between Ian and Aleece make this an interesting and satisfying read."- Kathleen Kelly, Celtic Lady "Excellent suspense. Figuring out and following the clues to catch all four suspects is something that Ian is surprisingly good at and something Aleece excels at doing. I loved riding along as all the pieces fell into place."- Carol, A Voracious Reader "Meeks may have daringly stepped into new territory, but he continues to remain in the rarefied atmosphere of fine contemporary authors." - Grady Harp, Literary Aficionado

Eyes Like Lighthouses is Dane Cobain’s first book of poetry, distilled from the sweat of a thousand memorised performances in this reality and others. It’s not for the faint-hearted.

“I’ve never seen anyone do a stream of consciousness piece as talented as that. Very impressed.” – Mark Allard-Will, author of Saskatch-A-Man and co-founder of Cuckoo’s Nest Press

“Dane’s poetry is a multi-layered spiral of the macabre, quirky humour and disjointed imagery. Not only does he make you think, he captures the small forgotten moments of everyday life.” – Nikki Dudley, co-editor of Streetcake Magazine

“…[Dane] combines concrete detail with socioeconomic concerns.” – Lorna Wood, associate editor of Gemini Magazine

Purchase at Amazon

Dane Cobain (High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire, UK) is an independent poet, musician and storyteller with a passion for language and learning. When he's not in front of a screen writing stories and poetry, he can be found working on his book review blog or developing his website.
