Indie Book Connect, my no fuss no muss subscription that expands my horizons when it comes to new indie authors. I tend to be adventurous but also I am usually easily confused with all the new books that come out so I find that this is a great way to sample indie authors without actually looking through all that is out there. So let us get into the package.
The Unfinished by Jonathan Myers
From the back of the book: "After being out of the life of espionage of the cold war. Dean is thrown back into the world that he got out of after thirty years, to only discover that the lines of betrayal and loyalty get crossed. With his only goal is to set the unfinished business to business that is finished by any mean necessary. Even if it means he has to use his speciality craft of being the chemist. As he travels across continents to set things straight he discovers a whole new meaning to family."
The book came signed by the author and with a poster that advertised that the next book in the series is coming in 2018.
Rise (Trifecta, #1) by Luis Almonte
From the back of the book: "Fifteen-year-old high school sophomore Alexia Wick is an ordinary girl, with extraordinary abilities. She attends the prestigious South Haven Academy for the Gifted and Talented, but unknown to the other students, she is an Alerium witch. The daughter of a High Priest and Priestess, Alexia must learn to navigate the pressures of high school, all while preparing for one of the biggest competitions of her life- the Annual Trials.
Skill, stamina, and loyalty will all be tested in Rise, the first instalment of the Trifecta Series. In this debut contemporary fantasy novel, magic gets real as Alexia trains for the Annual Trials, which pits teen against teen, by focusing on her craft and pushing her magic and spell casting abilities to their absolute limit. When the handsome and confident Kaleb moves into town, he offers Alexia a welcome distraction from the Trials, but a dark secret could soon tear them apart.
In the trials arena, friendships will be put to the test, fears will be confronted head-on, and powerful spells will be unleashed. When Alexia is confronted with the ultimate game of chance and is torn between her first real love and the allegiance that binds her to her coven, will she buckle under the weight of the pressure ... or will she rise to the challenge?"
This was also a signed copy and it came with a letter from the author and a little bit of information about him.
Like the previous package, I don't know either of these authors and I'm interested in the books and the genres they represent.
