I am incredibly excited to say that my debut novel released today on Amazon KU/ebook/paperback: http://quill-still.sofaer.net/mast . It's a queer, cozy slice-of-life portal fantasy story about civics, divinity from a Jewish lens, chemistry/alchemy, and more civics.
Join Sophie Nadash, burned-out 39-year-old chemist, as a run-in with the goddess Artemis while hiking in the Greek woods and finds herself sent to a new, kinder world.
My child within is in need of a hug and it's Thursday.
Time to read something beautiful. Something meaningful. Something that speaks to the child within.
“And shouldn't home be the place where you are allowed to be yourself, loved as yourself?”
―Kate DiCamillo, The Beatryce Prophecy
A young flower hunter gets embroiled in the succession politics of the Sultanate when she must retrieve the rarest and most powerful magical flower after giving it to the wrong hands, in Rati Mehrotra’s Flower and Thorn.
On a harsh frontier where good and evil contend for people's minds, a young woman must fight for her true identity in this scintillating YA fantasy from the author of the award-winning Age of the Seventh Sun trilogy.
@bookstodon I need #BookRecommendations please! I’m looking for low #fantasy recommendations. Romance can be there but I want plenty of adventure & banter to go along with it. Nothing epic- magic should take a back seat and it’d be amazing if the main character did not have magic at all. Best if MC is not royal/deity/etc.
The closest thing I’ve read to this is Intisar Khanani’s The Dauntless Path series (which is amazing and I highly recommend). Anything else like it?
Have you been looking forward to reading SHADOW THIEF, the all-new prequel to SUNBOLT by Intisar Khanani? If so, you're in luck, because it's coming in just 3 more days!
A thrilling and charming middle grade fantasy steeped in Japanese lore and mythology. This brand new fantasy adventure will grip readers from the very first page and never let go.
Can't wait for the release of SUNBOLT by Intisar Khanani? Fill the void with an all-new prequel novella! SHADOW THIEF (The Sunbolt Chronicles, Book 0.5) is releasing on August 29. It will also be included in the print edition of SUNBOLT, releasing on September 19!
This middle grade novel is a great scary read ! Under the cover of a supernatural story, K.R. Alexander explores the themes of difference and being accepted. It is a perfect book for Goosebumps fans !
