Dragon’s Reach by J.A. Andrews – Spotlight

We’re back with another spotlight post, celebrating semi-finalists in the Book Blogger Novel of the Year Award (BBNYA).

Today’s book? More DRAGONS! YAY!

And I LOVE this book cover!

Let me introduce you to… *drum roll*

 

Dragon’s Reach by J.A. Andrews


Book info

Publisher: Self-Published

Length: 614 Pages

Genres: Epic Fantasy, Adult

Publication Date: 19 May 2020

 

Book blurb

Sable has spent ten years trapped in the slums, indebted to a ruthless gang boss Kiva, and scrambling to keep her younger sister safe.

She has nothing but the power to feel the truth in people’s words and a gnawing longing for freedom.

When she catches the slightest glimpse of escape through a traveling theater troupe, she must decide if the chance is worth risking Kiva’s wrath.

But there are more vicious evils in the world than gang bosses, and some threats you can’t outrun.

About the Author:

JA Andrews lives deep in the Rocky Mountains of Montana with her husband and three children. She is eternally grateful to CS Lewis for showing her the luminous world of Narnia.

She wishes Jane Austen had lived 200 years later so they could be pen pals. She is furious at JK Rowling for introducing her to house elves, then not providing her a way to actually employ one. And she is constantly jealous of her future-self who, she is sure, has everything figured out.

You can find her at www.jaandrews.com.

Blurb

Sheath has just learned that he is not a boy, but a Chimera, a weapon created by powerful dragon magic to be the perfect warrior and win a war almost one believes is coming.

One of an army of 300 child soldiers, he must master every art of war and become powerful enough to defeat a threat that frightens even the Council of Dragons.

Can a boy, no matter how powerful his magic, win against assassins, politicians, giants, the Blood Soldiers of Loria and all the strange creatures, beasts and monsters that call Fuumashon home? He would say yes.

Miss Mildred Percy inherits a dragon.

Ah, but we’ve already got ahead of ourselves…

Miss Mildred Percy is a spinster. She does not dance, she has long stopped dreaming, and she certainly does not have adventures. That is, until her great uncle has the audacity to leave her an inheritance, one that includes a dragon’s egg.

The egg - as eggs are wont to do - decides to hatch, and Miss Mildred Percy is suddenly thrust out of the role of “spinster and general wallflower” and into the unprecedented position of “spinster and keeper of dragons.”

But England has not seen a dragon since… well, ever. And now Mildred must contend with raising a dragon (that should not exist), kindling a romance (with a humble vicar), and embarking on an adventure she never thought could be hers for the taking.

The Iron Crown by L.L. MacRae - Spotlight

Continuing the series of spotlights celebrating semi-finalists in the Book Blogger Novel of the Year Award (BBNYA), today I’ve got an exciting fantasy adventure for you!

And I just LOVE this book cover!

Let me introduce you to… *drum roll*


 

The Iron Crown by L.L. MacRae

 

Book info

Publisher: Self-Published

Length: 568 Pages

Genre: Epic Fantasy, Adventure, Adult

Publication date: 28 May 2021

 

Book blurb

Fenn’s first and only memory is finding himself in the middle of a forest, face to face with a dragon spirit mocking him, all knowledge gone apart from his own name.

Lost and confused, his only hope for answers is Calidra—a woman living on the edge of the world with her partner. Forced to return home when her father dies, Calidra has put off facing her estranged mother for seven years, and she begrudgingly helps Fenn, forging papers for him so he can avoid the Queen’s Inquisitors.

But her mother is the least of her worries when they discover an ancient enemy is rising again. It should be impossible with the Iron Crown in power—and Fenn is terrified he might unwittingly be playing a part in the war’s resurgence.

Surrounded by vengeful spirits and powerful magic, Fenn’s desperate attempt to find his way home might well alter the fate of Tassar, and every power in it.

Add The Iron Crown on Goodreads.

Find the book on Amazon Canada, Amazon US, and Amazon UK.
