Tome Thursday: Elemental Awakening

 

Hello everyone!

 

Welcome.

 

Welcome to tonight's book of choice, which landed in my lap literally forever ago and completely at random - so random, in fact, that I can't even remember how!

 

Although I have vague recollections of finding a post asking for ARC readers for it, and applying thinking that it was never going to happen, yet here I am.

 

Having read the ARC, backed the Kickstarter project, and now seeing the book release into the world.

 

Because yes, it's release week, bby!

 

The official published prints went live February 9, and it has been a WILD ride. It's only getting better too, because the second book is coming this summer, there's a novella focusing on a fan favoured side character slated for autumn ... it's a good time to be in this world, is what I'm saying.

 

So buckle up, get your fingers all flexed and ready, sharpen those swords, and dust off ye ole leathers from our Empyrean drought; here there be dragons!

 

Let's walk with them in Elemental Awakening.

 

Tome Thursday: The Gatekeeper of Pericael

 

Hello everyone!

 

This week's book blog is an absolute gem.

 

Because every once in a while in your life, you get extremely lucky.

 

I'm fortunate enough that, about a year ago last year, I was contacted through Goodreads by the lovely, lovely Hayley Reese Chow asking if I'd like to read the ARC for her upcoming fantasy book.

 

I said yes.

 

DUH.

 

And towards the end of 2020, she reached out once again, with another fantasy book, except this one is geared more towards middle graders, but keep in mind that I don't really know these rankings all that well because I'm not American.

 

I do know that when the protagonist is 12 though, that it's PROBABLY meant for a fairly specific audience haha.

 

But don't worry! It's an absolute blast to read even if you're an adult. So let's open the door and check out The Gatekeeper of Pericael.
