Our sixth book in the 10 Days of Christmas Giveaway is Ærenden: The Child Returns by Kristen Taber. Wait, what? Mine? Yup, mine. You didn't really think I'd let the holidays go by without giving you a chance to nab the first book in my award-winning and highly-rated series for free did you? What type of friend would that make me? Geez.
If you've already read it, remember that you can tell friends about the freebie (or gift books; it is the holidays, after all). And for those of you who haven't read the book yet, the blurb is below.
Murder. Monsters. Magic. To Meaghan, these words belong in newspaper articles and children's stories, not her carefully planned life. Until the day she and her friend Nick witness her parents' brutal demise at the hands of red-eyed creatures. They flee into the wilderness where Nick tells her the creatures, known as Mardróch, came from another world to kill her. He gives her a choice—face the Mardróch alone or escape through a portal into a distant kingdom.
It isn't much of a choice.
Ærenden is a land more beautiful and sinister than Meaghan could have imagined. Vines attack. Monkeys freeze their victims with a glare. Soldiers create bombs from the air. Even Meaghan's newly discovered empath power turns into a danger she cannot control.
But control becomes the least of her worries when she learns the truth behind the kingdom's fifteen-year civil war—a long-buried secret that could cost Meaghan her life.
