Hey everyone 🙂
I just wanted to share a quick look at Rise of the Twinkling Heir by O.C. Jaime. This is the first book of a new YA fantasy series featuring a classic coming-of-age story.
Hermium Everling never wanted to be an Imaginent, and he never wanted to be a redhead either, but such was his lot. He was the boy that built things in his sleep.All he wanted was normal, like every other thirteen-year-old living on the North Star who had aspirations about getting into his favorite Thunder. Thunder cadets were cool! And those who got into Glimmeroc were the coolest of all!The odds of that happening for Hermium however would take an act of the Gods, and an act of the Gods is precisely what is needed.For a great evil now threatens Hermium’s world. Folk are disappearing. The talk of spectrals and fangists spreads. Even the heavens have been touched by what now festers in secret. There is but one answer: the Gods must seal Hermium to his purpose, and it must be Glimmeroc, and it must be quick.Because Molderaac stirs, growing signs are everywhere, and with him the Darkening. And only a light of creation can defeat another light, and only an Imaginent can hold that light’s key.Of course, Hermium doesn’t know that yet, but he will…
After reading the preface to this book, I can say that I’m really looking forward to it. The author is going to be self-published, so any help in launching this book would be fantastic. If you would like to pledge and receive a copy of the e-book, click here.
There has been a tremendous amount of heart put into the creation of this book and development of its world, as seen in the numerous trailers and teasers made to promote it. You can find those on Jaime’s website.
