COVER REVEAL!

 

On June 20, 2018, I will reveal the full cover for ROTR #2, THROUGH THE UNTAMED SKY. It will occur at the blog: Middle Grade Minded. I will send a special newsletter to announce it!

 

Release Date for book: March 26, 2019

HUGE ARC GIVEAWAY CONTINUES!

When I run out of ARC's, I'll offer you a choice of book posters from any of my titles!

 

Directions:

  • Leave an online review of RIDERS OF THE REALM at a major site (Amazon, Goodreads, Barnes & Noble)

 

  • Email me a screenshot of the review & your mailing address (open to U.S. addresses only) Email: jennifer(at)theguardianherd.com

 

  • Receive a signed ARC (advance reader copy) from my collection (while supplies last)! ARC's are collector's items because so few are printed. Don't miss out!

FEATURED FAN ART

 

Dragon from The Guardian Herd message board drew an original Kihlara stallion based off my book RIDERS OF THE REALM. His name is Vigilans. He's 14, a scout for the Fifth Clan, and his Rider is Taya Moree. The drawing to the right is of a new pegasus character named Shysong. These pictures show a tame pegasus versus a wild one.

 

Some readers are concerned about the pegasi from Anok becoming tame. The ideas of freedom versus cooperation, love versus dependence, and friendship versus slavery will be explored deeply within the trilogy. Trust me and keep reading!

WHAT'S ON MY DESK?

TRIVIA!

The very first Guardian Herd fan art was drawn by my daughter before STARFIRE was even published! She was eleven at the time. Here is her picture of Crystalfeather with her twins, Echofrost and Bumblewind. I love the cliff and orcas in the background, a nod to Chapter 14--the chapter that I will never forget writing as long as I live! Do you have a favorite chapter?

WINGBEATS BOOK CLUB

HERD NERD PETS

 

These adorable dogs belong to Eva W.

 

Ellie Mae is the basset hound. She's four and lazy and stubborn, but also playful and curious! She buries her bones in potted plants.

 

Annie is a schnoodle! She's seven and clingy, affectionate, super cuddly, smart, and an over-achiever. Eva calls her "the sheriff" because she keeps the other dogs in line! She howls when anyone plays the piano.

 

Astra is a Sheprador! She's a brilliant and energetic puppy. She loves to chew and play. Her favorite toy is an empty toilet paper roll. She also loves bird-watching (who doesn't!) and walks around the neighborhood.
