Cold Burn of Magic giveaway …

• Posted in About Books, Black Blade series, Contests

I’m gearing up for the release of Dark Heart of Magic, Black Blade #2, on Oct. 27. Only about a month to go now. Woot!

Dark Heart of Magic is available for pre-order at the following sites:

Amazon Kindle / Amazon print / Barnes & Noble / Books-A-Million / iBooks / IndieBound / Google Play / Kobo

The audiobook will be available through Audible and Amazon. Brittany Pressley is once again the narrator.

But while we’re waiting on Dark Heart of Magic, let’s go back to Cold Burn of Magic, the first book in my Black Blade series. I haven’t done a contest here on my blog in a while, so let’s fix that. 🙂

Black Blade #1I’m giving away 5 copies of Cold Burn of Magic. The contest is open to those 14 and older, U.S. only. To enter, use the form at the bottom of this post.

Here’s the book description for Cold Burn of Magic:

THERE BE MONSTERS HERE…

It’s not as great as you’d think, living in a tourist town that’s known as “the most magical place in America.” Same boring high school, just twice as many monsters under the bridges and rival Families killing each other for power.

I try to keep out of it. I’ve got my mom’s bloodiron sword and my slightly illegal home in the basement of the municipal library. And a couple of Talents I try to keep quiet, including very light fingers and a way with a lock pick.

But then some nasty characters bring their Family feud into my friend’s pawn shop, and I have to make a call—get involved, or watch a cute guy die because I didn’t. I guess I made the wrong choice, because now I’m stuck putting everything on the line for Devon Sinclair. My mom was murdered because of the Families, and it looks like I’m going to end up just like her…

So basically, the book features magic, monsters, and mobsters. The heroine is Lila Merriweather, a 17-year-old thief who lives in Cloudburst Falls, West Virginia, a town dubbed “the most magical place in America.” Tourists come from around the world to tour all the magic-themed shops and attractions, as well as see monsters like tree trolls, copper crushers, and more in their natural habitats.

Lila also does her best to stay off the grid and avoid the Families — or mobs — who control much of the town. But when she saves a member of the Sinclair Family during an attack, Lila finds herself caught in the middle of a brewing war between the Sinclairs and the Draconis, the two most powerful Families in town. a Rafflecopter giveaway

    I’m a big fan of your elemental series. Your mythos academy is on my “pile to read”, i can’t wait to discover this new series (sorry if my english is not correct, i’m french….)

  17. Breana M. says:

    I’m not exactly looking forward to any specific book. Lately, I’ve gone back to read some older novels, but if anything good comes out I’d definitely give it a try.

  18. Vicki says:

    I stalk….errr, I mean I search around on the internet for what’s new from my favorite authors and I keep a list for the year (this year, I have 46 listed). As each arrives, I mark it off the list. For the fall, (which I magnanimously decided started Sept. 1 because I was sick of summer already), I have 14 books on the list. Each week has been excitement, waiting on the new book to arrive. This week it is a non-fiction book from Jenny Lawson-Furiously Happy.

  25. April B says:

    I don’t have a specific book that I’m looking forward to this fall. However, I just started reading The Dark Hunters series by Sherilyn Kenyon and I’m really enjoying it!

  29. Ellie Fetzer says:

    There are so many books I am looking forward to! I certainly can’t wait till the second book in your Cold Burn of Magic series!

  32. Deborah says:

    September is such a big month for publishers’ releases that I can’t list all of the books I’m anticipating.

  33. Deborah King-Miller says:

    September is such a big month for publishers’ releases that I can’t list all of the books I’m anticipating. September/October are like Christmas for readers.

  34. Sammi Dunn says:

    I am looking forward to Christine Feehan’s releases this fall! She has three coming out in the next couple of months so I will be sitting on the couch for a while reading those.

  36. Angela Fitzgerald says:

    Honestly, I’m a listener but my daughter, who wants to be a famous author one day always gets books that I win or that’s given to me. She has all of your books Jennifer, Faith Hunter, Julie Kagawa, Kim Harrison, and much more. Since I haven’t seen Faith’s new book on Audible yet, but I have seen your then I’m going with Cold Burn Of Magic. I’m sorry but I had to post my comment using my other email but the one below my name is where you can reach me. Good luck to everyone.
