Night of Pan by Gail Strickland Blog Tour

Hi everyone! My name is Gail Strickland. I am especially honored to be asked by Katie to write for her blog, since her intriguing book KIYA: HOPE OF THE PHARAOH is running around in the back of my recently published book NIGHT OF PAN. It seems perfect that Kiya of ancient Egypt and Thaleia my Delphic Oracle in ancient Greece would be hanging out together. I think they would be great friends!
Kiya and Thaleia are both headstrong, willing to speak their minds and definitely willing to take on men in power who want to subjugate them. I actually laughed out loud, when I read the opening to KIYA. She runs into a once forbidden part of Thebes, curious to know the mystery of an abandoned temple, the Temple of Bast. “Are you afraid I will be struck down by Bast for being unworthy to enter?” she asks her sisters.
Toward the beginning of NIGHT OF PAN, Thaleia convinces her best friend Sophia to run up Mount Parnassos so that they can spy on a Pythia-Oracle who Thaleia knows in her heart is a fake Oracle being used by the head-priest to serve his own purposes. Sophia is afraid they will be caught on the Sacred Way and tries to convince Thaleia to return home, but Thaleia strides up the mountain until at last they reach the Temple of Apollo. “I (Thaleia) look behind us to be sure no one else is coming. The light no longer shimmers. My head is clear. We turn a last uphill bend in the path. Massive Cyclopean blocks of the Sanctuary wall loom before us. I hold my breath and spider-crawl past the stonewall. Past a treasury, its bronze door bolted. Gulping deep breaths, I slip inside the high gate and into the Sanctuary. Music from flutes and finger cymbals, drums and a rattle of knucklebones drift from the great temple.”Both Kiya and Thaleia bravely step inside the forbidden temple. And both girls discover their destiny there: Kiya as “Great Queen mother of a king” and Thaleia as the “Oracle of Delphi.” However, both girls must find the courage to face many obstacles, before they claim their destinies. And both girls act with compassion in their hearts. It is not enough, they know, to be strong. Theirs is not a courage only to fight with sword and might but also the courage to understand who they truly are and to confront greedy queens, priests and warriors on their own terms.One of Kiya’s first acts is to willingly go with the Egyptian soldiers to become the pharaoh’s queen in order to save her sisters from the same fate. Acting out of love, Kiya finds the courage to forever leave behind her home and family. When Thaleia—trying to save her mentor—summons a daimona and unwittingly burns the fake Oracle (who hates Thaleia), only when she understands that a powerful Oracle must forgive, not seek revenge, not lash out in hatred and anger, can she find the integrity and courage to help the girl.So, what do you think, Katie? I have a feeling that Kiya and Thaleia would have a great time running around the mountains together! We should do a reading and let them share some stories.

I love the parallels you've drawn, Gail! Seriously, I've been waiting to read Night of Pan since I joined in with the cover reveal. It's on my kindle, making it's way to the top of my TBR list. I NEED to read it now!
And I love you you said Kiya's running around in the back of your book. Hahaha!
Thanks for stopping by!

Fall For Fantasy Week #13

Welcome to the Fall Into Fantasy Tour, where we are keeping your mind off any end-of-summer blues and welcoming the cooler weather by introducing you to some incredible fantasy reads to curl up with and giving you plenty of chances to win awesome prizes!

Week 13: The Darkworld Series
Prequel Novella: Fear's Touch
Book One: Darkness Watching
Book Two: Walking Shadow
By Emma L. Adams


This is a standalone novella, intended as a prequel to the Darkworld series. As it takes place one year before the events of Darkness Watching, it doesn’t contain any spoilers (although it does hint at things which will come into play later in the series).

Freakish powers and staring demon eyes aren’t part of Claudia’s plans for the future – and neither is ending up stuck at the gloomy, isolated University of Blackstone. But bad life decisions are the least of her problems, when a split-second decision to help out another magic-user puts her in the crossfire of both the shadow-beasts and the creepy organisation which hunt them down.

Claudia’s never had to worry about making the right choice before, but every decision matters when you have a Darkworld connection. Soon, she’s going to have to make a choice: turn her back on the crazy and try to live a normal life, or take the monsters down.

But in a world where everyone seems to have secrets, can she really trust her fellow magic-users – or even herself?

Eighteen-year-old Ashlyn is one interview away from her future when she first sees the demons. She thinks she's losing her mind, but the truth is far more frightening: she can see into the Darkworld, the home of spirits– and the darkness is staring back.
Desperate to escape the demons, Ash accepts a place at a university in the small town of Blackstone, in the middle of nowhere - little knowing that it isn't coincidence that led her there but the pull of the Venantium, the sorcerers who maintain the barrier keeping demons from crossing from the Darkworld into our own world.
All-night parties, new friendships and a life without rules or limits are all part of the package of student life - but demons never give up, and their focus on Ash has attracted the attention of every sorcerer in the area. Ash is soon caught between her new life and a group of other students with a connection to the Darkworld, who could offer the answers she's looking for. The demons want something from her, and someone is determined to kill her before she can find out what it is. 
In a world where darkness lurks beneath the surface, not everyone is what they appear to be...
Reviews:
"Demons, Sorcerers, evil, and secrets. Could you ask for a better supernatural suspense set-up? The plot is original, and completely gripping. From the first page, this book had me hooked." - Rose at Desert Rose Reviews

"A suspenseful first part to an intriguing new fantasy series." - Sharon Stevenson, supernatural author
“The story is extremely well-written with effortless, flowing prose, and the original magic-user mythology and Darkworld creatures are very entertaining. The author took what might have been over-done premise and twisted it into something very fresh and exciting.” - Lexa Cain, author of Soul Cutter 
"Emma is an amazing writer. She has become one of my favorites. I couldn’t put Darkness Watching down." - Diane at A Creative Mind

When you have a connection to the Darkworld, nowhere is truly safe.
Ashlyn has found a new home in Blackstone, but when a spate of grave robberies across the country spark fears that someone is practicing illegal sorcery, she comes under the radar of the Venantium, the protectors of the Barrier between her world and the Darkworld, who are suspicious of any sorcerer who doesn’t know their origins.
The trouble is, what Ash does know might just get her killed.
Sufferers of the dangerous condition known as the vampire’s curse are being brutally killed, and the latest victim is Leo’s guardian, the ex-head of the Venantium. Ash determines to help Leo find out what’s really going on, but it isn’t long before events are spiralling out of control. The dead are rising from their graves, and the barriers around Blackstone are threatened by a demon which looks exactly like Ash herself…

ABOUT EMMA L. ADAMS Emma spent her childhood creating imaginary worlds to compensate for a disappointingly average reality, so it was probably inevitable that she ended up writing fantasy novels for children and young adults. She was born in Birmingham, UK, which she fled at the first opportunity to study English Literature at Lancaster University. In her three years at Lancaster, she hiked up mountains, skydived in Australia, and endured a traumatic episode involving a swarm of bees in the Costa Rican jungle. She also entertained her creative writing group and baffled her tutors by submitting strange fantasy tales featuring dragons and supernatural monsters to workshops. These included her first publication, a rather bleak dystopian piece, and a disturbing story about a homicidal duck (which she hopes will never see the light of day).

Now a reluctant graduate, Emma refuses to settle down and be normal. When not embarking on wild excursions, she edits and proofreads novels for various publishing houses and reads an insane number of books. At the age of 21, she signed a publishing contract with Curiosity Quills Press for the first book in her creepy urban fantasy Darkworld series. DARKNESS WATCHING was published in October 2013, and four more novels and a novella will follow. She chats about writing and other book-related things at her blog, From the Writer’s Nest, and looks forward to sharing more tales from the bizarre depths of her imagination.

Cover Reveal: The Hurricane by R.J. Prescott

Publication date: February 16th 2015 
Synopsis:Emily McCarthy is living in fear of a dark and dangerous past. A gifted mathematician, she is little more than a hollow, broken shell, trying desperately to make ends meet long enough to finish her degree.
Through an unlikely friendship with the aging, cantankerous owner of an old boxing gym, Em is thrown into the path of the most dangerous man that she has ever met.
Cormac “the Hurricane” O’Connell is cut, tattooed and dangerous. He is a lethal weapon with no safety and everyone is waiting for the mis-fire. He’s never been knocked out before, but when he meet Em he falls, HARD. Unlike any other girl he’s ever met, she doesn’t want anything from him, but just being around her makes him want to be a better person.

Jackson returns to Arcas expecting to find peace—a peace greatly lacking within his own home. But when a violent archer takes over as Lord of the White Palace, the future of the ancient kingdoms is shaken.
While Rigel, Otava, and Merope work together to rescue the six sisters trapped at the White Palace, Sephdar returns from shadowy crusades to find White Wings’ army leaderless. The new self-proclaimed ruler has a plan for the Seven Sisters and a plan for The Bridge to Earth. But when his ambitious arrows pierce the peaceful kingdoms, an unlikely force confronts the dark lord and the future of the crowns is changed forever.
In absence of the seven sisters, Jackson returns to find that dark creatures have overtaken the beautiful Starling Forest, destroying everything in their path. Jackson and Nekkar narrowly escape together, but Nekkar blames the Son of Earth for releasing the present darkness in Arcas. The rocky, new friendship strengthens as they journey through dangerous lands toward the Free Realms. Can their loyalties survive when the beautiful Princess Andromeda interrupts their quest and the darkness of war batters their souls?
Hold to your axe and hold to your lass as you join Jackson to combat the darkness spreading through the world of Arcas. But remember, the most powerful arrows do not pierce the body but the soul.

Blog Tour Tour: Found In Us (Lost #2) by Layla Hagen

Publication date: July 24th 2014
Synopsis:**This can be read as a STANDALONE. The second book in the Lost series tells Jessica and Parker’s story.**
All Jessica wants -as a college graduate — is to be a good girl. She landed the job of her dreams at a museum and is trying to eliminate temptations. No more short skirts (when she can help it). No wild parties. And no men.
She particularly excels at that last thing. . .
Until her path crosses Parker’s. Again. Jessica remembers the last time their paths crossed very well. She was left with a seriously bruised ego. She knows it would be best to avoid him altogether. But the charming Brit makes it hard for her to elude his electrifying pull. He is as irresistible as he is captivating.
And enigmatic.
Because underneath the sleek Armani suit and the sweet British accent that makes her crave his touch, Parker isn’t the perfect gentleman everyone thinks he is.
He’s exactly what Jessica doesn’t want, but desperately needs.
A bad, bad boy.

Excerpt:
I decide to use the dress as an excuse to leave early. To my dismay, Parker is leaning against the wall farther down the corridor, one or two turns away from the entrance to the bar. His eyes rest on the stain on my dress for a few seconds and my cheeks flare up instantly. I'm sure he can see the redness in them even in the dim light. "I have to go," I say. "My dress is soaked.""I'll drive you home," he says, walking toward me. "No, you just got here. I'm sure you and Dani have lots to talk about." I actually take a step back, only to hit the wall behind me."I'd just drop you off and return. Are you afraid of being alone with me, Jessica?""No . . . it's just not necessary. I can take a cab.""What are you afraid of?" he insists, stepping right in front of me. "That I'll try to seduce you and take you to bed? Do I really strike you like that kind of guy?"Every inch of my body commands me to say yes. In my experience, men who don't look even half as godlike as he does are after one thing only. But his humiliating rejection all those months ago proves he isn't one of them. And nothing I've seen or heard about him indicated he’s a womanizer. But being so close to him makes it impossible to think rationally. I push him away, but with one swing he grabs both my hands and pins them against the wall above me. His lips are inches away from mine, the fingers of his free hand tracing the contour of my lips, leaving a trail of fire behind them. He's so close to me that I can feel every single hot breath against my lips. He locks eyes with me, and it's the sight of his blue eyes boring into mine—more than his proximity and his touch—that sets me on fire, causing an almost unbearable pressure between my thighs. He trails his fingers from my lips down to my chin and then slowly over my neck. I bite my lip when he presses gently with his thumb on the hollow of my neck, then proceeds with his torture farther down. His fingers peruse the hem of my neckline, at the exact point where the soaked fabric of the dress meets my skin, then slip under the fabric. Just a fraction of an inch.Not enough to actually touch my breast. But more than enough to send me over the edge. "Damn you, Parker, kiss me," I whisper. He doesn't answer, the corner of his lips lifting in a delicious smile as he removes his hand from my neckline, letting it fall by his side. His eyes never leave mine. I wait, sucking in my breath, for him to lean forward and kiss me. After what feels like hours, he finally leans forward and kisses me.
On my goddamn forehead.

Cover Reveal: Jaded Little Lies by Christina Channelle (Four Letters, #1)

Publication date: April 2015
Synopsis:
What do you do when the love of your life is halfway across the world?
If you’re Jade Reamer, you fill that void with writing depressing song lyrics, hanging out with asshole exes, and re-reading your dead best friend’s diary (morbid, anyone?). But she’s got a lot to deal with—getting to know her biological family, for one. Not to mention getting through her first year of university without her best friend, Nina, by her side.
Then there are the men in Jade’s life. Her ex, Connor, has baggage coming out of his ass since the car accident. Her brother, Bryn, thinks stifling who he really is while pretending everything’s okay … is okay. When that’s far from the truth. And Reed? Reed decides the best way for Jade to deal with his absence is to get her a dog. And when he finally comes back?
Well, things aren’t exactly the same.
Deciphering between love and hate is the least of Jade’s problems … those four letter words  are getting more and more complicated. Especially when she and Reed are keeping secrets from each other. Because as she forms new relationships and rekindles old ones, an unexpected surprise has got Jade’s mouth spewing lies on top of the usual curse words.
But little white lies won’t hurt anybody, right?

Voodoo Butterfly Blog Tour: Doubt: A Writer's Worst Enemy

Doubt: A Writer's Worst EnemyWhen I was eight or nine years old, I would sit at my mom's electric typewriter and write stories about princesses and Oscar the Grouch. The click-clack of the letters felt powerful under my fingertips. Even now when I sit down to write, I know it will feel so good to sit in my chair and tap the keys with my fingers, letting the ideas that swirl around in my head out onto the page.Since writing is so subjective, I have definitely encountered people who have not liked my writing for this reason or that. A high school English teacher told me (and my mom) during a parent-teacher conference, "You're never as good as you think you are." Really? That's your pearl of wisdom for a teenage girl going through all the self-image issues that young girls go through in America. In my adult life, some people have been downright Debbie Downers claiming, "You can't write for a living" or "There's no money in writing." Tell that to Stephenie Meyer and J.K. Rowling, who were both stay-at-home moms and made their publishing dreams come true (my heroes!). Luckily, I've had lots of people in my corner to raise my spirits. Another high school English teacher is my friend on Facebook and she still encourages me when she sees me post about my writing milestones. My husband and kids know to leave Mommy alone when she's writing. My parents watch the kiddos so that I can go to writing conferences and workshops to improve my craft. A close friend of mine also helps watch my toddler one day a week so I can squeeze in some precious, precious writing time. Friends and family members have been beta readers for my novel, Voodoo Butterfly. And my critique partners, The Lit Ladies (love you guys) have made my novel much better. Friends, family, and my fellow writers have all encouraged me to keep going. Especially when I'm having a moment of doubt. Sophie Nouveau, my heroine in Voodoo Butterfly, struggles with the ugly monster we call doubt, too. To quote my book, "Doubt crawled inside of me like thousands of tiny spiders."  Ultimately, it is one of those forces that blocks her from accessing her magical power.When Sophie inherits a New Orleans voodoo shop, she knows nothing about voodoo. Or her family's secret power. The women in her family are specialized voodoo priestesses called Mind Changers who have the power to change evil people good. When someone starts sending Sophie death threats to scare her away from her new enchanted life, the only way for her to protect herself (and those she loves) is to make her spell work. If she cannot overcome the demons of doubt and fear, she will never be able to access her power.On the surface it doesn't seem like Sophie, voodoo priestess superhero extraordinaire, has things in common with us mere mortals. But I actually wrote Voodoo Butterflyto overcome my own feelings of powerlessness in a time when I was really doubting my own abilities as a mother. Right before beginning the book, I made the heart-wrenching decision to leave teaching in order to be a stay-at-home mom. Some women are natural domestic goddesses, but I found staying home to be isolating and boring at times. The reason why it was so hard for me to leave teaching is that I felt like I was giving up a big part of my identity. This is not to say that I want to change my decision, but the transition into motherhood definitely reached "dark night of the soul" status for me. Writing this book helped me emerge from a pretty confusing, tumultuous, and doubt-filled place inside of myself. And Sophie definitely helped me get my groove back. Here's a few strategies that have helped me overcome doubt during this journey:·       Yoga and meditation·       Walking/exercising with my mommy group·       Going outdoors for fresh air·       Playing with my kids·       Talking with my loved ones or with other writers·       Taking a break·       Power napsWho has ever doubted your writing ability? As a writer, how do you deal with doubt? I'd love to hear your comments :) Also, please join me for the Voodoo Butterfly Book Party on Facebook, November 19 from 6-9 PM. "Show up" in your PJ's and "attend" from your couch if you want because it's an online party. We'll have a Q&A about the book, discussion about paranormal topics, and fun "door prizes" like gift cards, iTunes, and even a free psychic reading. Simply click "JOIN" on the page and invite anyone else who is passionate about the paranormal.



About Voodoo Butterfly:
When twenty-five-year old Sophie Nouveau inherits her grandmother's voodoo shop she knows nothing about voodoo. Or her family's history of Mind Changers who have the power to change evil people good. To complicate matters, someone doesn't want Sophie in New Orleans and sends a series of death threats to scare her away from her new enchanted life.  Tipped off by her grandmother's ghost, Sophie realizes her mind changing spell's been missing one magic ingredient: true love. If Sophie cannot experience transformative love, she cannot make her spell work, and she will be powerless to fight back when confronted by the one who wants her dead.

“How can I fight for you when I don’t know what I’m fighting for?”

When Grace Tate became one of the fallen to protect a vampire, it got her into more trouble than she’d bargained for. She’s angry at Charlotte for hiding the truth, and with Josh living in the city and Seth missing, life is harder than ever.

It’s about to get a lot harder…

Grace doesn’t want to leave Hopetown Valley, but when Josh ignores her calls she decides to go and search for him. She doesn’t expect to run into Seth as well.

When she reaches the city, Grace learns that Charlotte is the most hunted vampire in Wide Island. The city vamps want her blood, and the angels are after her soul. Grace gets caught in the crossfire of a battle she never wanted, but to win one war, she has to fight another.

Torn between the one she gave up everything for, and the one who sacrificed everything for her, Grace has to face Charlotte, and the past, if she wants to fight for her future. But how can she fight for someone who doesn’t want to fight for her?

Every choice Grace makes becomes a battle, and in every battle someone has to die.
