So, I enlisted Progeny in the Kindle Select program, allowing me to put it on promotional sale for 5 days.
Wednesday through Friday, it is $0.00.
In that time, it's hit #1 on Amazons Bestselling Epic Fantasy (free), #24 Genre Fiction, and #36 for ALL books.
You have one last day to get it. Tell everyone you know.

Terrene Chronicles: Bundle 1: Merchant, No. 1: Market (Science Fiction & Fantasy)

updated Mar 07, 2011 09:19pm
Description:
The Terrene Chronicles are a series of short stories inspired by past events only alluded to in R.T. Kaelin’s high fantasy novel, Progeny. Reader response to the novel prompted me to write and publish a set of standalone short stories inspired by historical events referenced in Progeny.
Fans of the first volume in the Children of the White Lions have stated their desire to know more about the expansive world of Terrene and its rich history. The Terrene Chronicles will give old and new readers alike a chance to see what shaped the people, countries, and events of the world of Terrene.

Description:
The opening of Progeny, the new novel by R.T. Kaelin. The 655-page novel tells the tale of two young siblings - a brother and sister - whose home is destroyed, friends and neighbors lost, and lives are forever changed after a vicious attack on their village by a stranger. The event spurs the pair into a strange world where they discover their heritage has little to do with being the children of simple farmers. Swept up by myth and magic, they discover their destiny is much more than they could have ever imagined.

Without a doubt, R. T. Kaelin’s Progeny goes on my list of high fantasy to be re-read. With the number of books currently competing for my attention, that is saying a lot.
At first glance, it seems that Kaelin has written a formulaic quest-type fan... " Read more of this review » |
