Welcome to the Young Adult Faeries & Fantasy Giveaway Hop. Today we have an awesome family friendly book to give away. The Black Shard by Victoria Simcox (sequel to The Magic Warble) is a fun YA/Middle School Fantasy with gnomes, dwarfs, and fairies. Victoria is letting me giveaway THREE ebooks of this wonderful book. Isn't she awesome?
SummaryKristina's stay at summer horse camp is horrible to say the least, and it's all because Hester and Davina are there as well, making her life miserable. When Hester's cruel prank goes terribly wrong, it's actually what sends the three girls back to the magical land of Bernovem. In Bernovem, Kristina is very excited to see her former friend, Prince Werrien. When he invites her to sail with him on his ship to his homeland Tezerel, putting it simply, Kristina can't refuse. Reunited with her gnome, dwarf, animal, fairy friends ... and best of all, Werrien, things seem like they couldn't get any better for Kristina. But when Werrien becomes fascinated with an unusual seeing stone, the "Black Shard," Kristina is haunted by a ghostlike old hag. Struggling against suspicion, guilt, illness, and ultimately the one who wants to possess her soul, Kristina will see it's in her weakest moment that she will encounter more strength than she has ever known.
Three winners will receive the ebook The Black Shard. This giveaway is International.

DeleteI am half way through reading The Magic Warble. This is one of those books that I would really like to see made into a movie. The characters are great and you really do follow them through a journey. I highly recommend this book, and you don't have to be in Middle School to enjoy it.

ReplyDeleteI love that there are numerous fantasy creatures in this book. Except for the gnome because they kind of freak me out, but I love when there are lots of magical creatures in one book.
