Hey everyone!
The first read2review in a long time!

-----

Title: The Child Returns (Aerenden #1)
Genre: YA Epic Fantasy
Copies: 10 (ePub or Mobi)
Time frame: 30 days
Synopsis:
Seventeen-year-old Meaghan has no idea her perfect life has been a lie--until she witnesses her parents' brutal murders at the hands of red-eyed creatures.

After nearly sharing their fate, she escapes with her best friend, Nick, who tells her the creatures are called Mardróch. They come from another world, and so does she. Now that the Mardróch have found her, she must return to her homeland of Ærenden or face death.

Left with little choice, she follows Nick into a strange world both similar to Earth and drastically different. Vines have the ability to attack. Monkeys freeze their victims with a glare. Men create bombs from thin air. Even Meaghan's newly discovered empath power turns into a danger she cannot control.

But control becomes the least of her worries once the Mardróch begin targeting her. When Nick confesses he knows the reason they want her, she learns the truth behind the kingdom's fifteen-year civil war--a long-buried secret that could cost Meaghan her life.

Here is my review https://www.goodreads.com/review/show... this fab read:

Thanks so much, Natalie!

I wanted to say thank you again to everyone who took the time to read and review The Child Returns. For anyone interested, I'm hosting a virtual launch party for The Zeiihbu Master (Aerenden #3) on FB. If you want the link for the party, you can PM me or find it through my FB page. As part of the launch, I'm also holding a drawing for a digital copy of Book 3, to be awarded prior to launch day. Anyone who's written a review for either of the first two books before the 14th can enter (including past reviews), so let me know if you want me to add your name to the list for the random drawing.
Thanks again. I look forward to getting to know everyone better through goodreads forums and book reviews. I love this site :).

Hello,

I am wondering if I could get some clarification on this read to review discussion. First of all, Kristen, I would love to read your book. Can I buy it? I do not have a kindle. Second, my first YA novel with a (if I say so myself!) kick ass female protagonist is coming out April 1 with the Poisoned Pencil Press. The book is called "Death Spiral, A Faith Flores Science Mystery." Do I have to do anything special on this site to request a read for review? Do I have to have been a member for a longer time? I would love and appreciate reads and reviews on Goodreads and on Amazon. Thanks. Janie

Yes, you can. It's available on all formats. If you go to www.aerenden.com you can follow the link for whichever format you prefer.

I'm not sure about the requirements on member longevity, but to request inclusion in Read to Reviews, I've found the threads introducing them in each particular group and provided the information requested. In most cases, you can find the topic in an Author-specified section. For this group, it's here: https://www.goodreads.com/topic/show/...

Good luck with your launch :).
