Blitz Host: Lady
Amber's ToursSynopsis
Esa is a street girl living in a post
apocalyptic world. A world that left her with nothing except the physical and
mental scars that drive her to the person she is becoming.
Whilst searching for shelter, she
encounters a creature known as a spinner who pulls her onto a perilous path.
Now with a horde of goblins close on their heels, they must work together and
enter the magical realm in search of answers. Why can she sense magic and why
is a powerful sorcerer determined to end her life?
This is an exciting story of power,
friendship and secrets. Secrets that threaten to rip Esa’s world apart.
Pulse is aimed towards the young adult
market. For those seeking adventure and magic with a futuristic edge. Most
fantasy novels tend to hide the magical worlds or show as historic here I have
tried to blend the worlds together.
Excerpt
“Oh, girlie, you really
shouldn’t have said that.” His beady red eyes greedily took in the girl and seeing
no real threat he lunged forward. His sword scraped the wall where moments
earlier Esa had stood. Pushing from the wall, she twisted to the side and drove
her dagger deep into the goblin’s extended arm. A yowl filled the room and he
swung his sword blindly in her direction. In one fluid movement she dropped to
the floor and kicked her leg out. Boot hit shin and he fell to the floor
grabbing his leg.
“No one calls me girlie.” Standing over him she turned the dagger
around in her hand, bringing the hilt down on the base of his skull. “Night,
night.” Wiping the blood from her blade on her jeans, she turned her attention
to Rootu.
Author Bio:
HJ has always loved
books and read at every opportunity. At first reading with her own children and
then at schools in a hope of capturing the hearts and minds of the young.
Writing became a natural progression for her when her children attended full
time education and she had a little free time.
It wasn’t always
about writing though, during her teens, HJ stepped up her Latin American
dancing and travelled Europe competing.
