Bound

by Emily Smith

While seventeen-year-old Riley sits and broods in her favorite tree, a pastime she's become quite good at over the last few months, an unusual glass hatch glints on the forest floor. It's not long before this dancing light strikes Riley's eye, and she's crawling along the ground toward it. Beneath the glass, a young man floats, eerily frozen in time. Moved to action by an unseen power, Riley opens the hatch and pulls the young man out, unwittingly waking him in the process. When the bloodbinder, Cray, says, “Wish in me for I am bound by blood to grant you three,” their lives and fates become inextricably entwined.

About the author

I am Emily Smith, author of a range of books for readers of about seven years and upwards.

Magic or adventure, mystery or mayhem - whatever your tastes in books, there should be something to suit you. But all my books should make you laugh (and one or two might make you cry...).

I have won prizes (yay!) and was a runner-up in the Blue Peter Award (which was fun).

I am currently working on my new series The Days of Feere - watch this space!
