My VERY FIRST Giveaway!!

I've been at this blogging thing for over a year now, and I've decided that it's time for my first giveaway! I'm mostly doing this because I have the most amazing readers ever, and also because I think I've gotten too many blank stares when I talk about the Seven Realms series that I love so much. After some research of this series, I've found that it was planned to have four books total. So far, two have been released and the third one, The Gray Wolf Throne, is set to be released in September. The problem I'm having with this is that in all my findings, the author, Cinda Williams Chima, has said that this is the title of the FOURTH and final book--the third being The Sword of Hanalea. A bit of a problem since The Sword of Hanalea is non-existent. It is set to be a four-part series though, so I'm interested to see what the final book will be called.

Now-- the giveaway!!

This is the first book in the Seven Realms series....

AND IT IS AMAZING!!

Here's what it's about:

Times are hard in the mountain city of Fellsmarch. Reformed thief Han Alister will do almost anything to eke out a living for himself, his mother, and his sister Mari. Ironically, the only thing of value he has is something he can’t sell. For as long as Han can remember, he’s worn thick silver cuffs engraved with runes. They’re clearly magicked—as he grows, they grow, and he’s never been able to get them off.

While out hunting one day, Han and his Clan friend, Dancer catch three young wizards setting fire to the sacred mountain of Hanalea. After a confrontation, Han takes an amulet from Micah Bayar, son of the High Wizard, to ensure the boy won't use it against them. Han soon learns that the amulet has an evil history—it once belonged to the Demon King, the wizard who nearly destroyed the world a millennium ago. With a magical piece that powerful at stake, Han knows that the Bayars will stop at nothing to get it back.

Meanwhile, Raisa ana’Marianna, Princess Heir of the Fells, has her own battles to fight. She’s just returned to court after three years of relative freedom with her father’s family at Demonai camp – riding, hunting, and working the famous Clan markets. Although Raisa will become eligible for marriage after her sixteenth name-day, she isn't looking forward to trading in her common sense and new skills for etiquette tutors and stuffy parties. 

Raisa wants to be more than an ornament in a glittering cage. She aspires to be like Hanalea—the legendary warrior queen who killed the Demon King and saved the world. But it seems like her mother has other plans for her--plans that include a suitor who goes against everything the Queendom stands for.
