One of my fellow Curiosity Quills authors will soon be releasing her debut noel, THE CHARGE!
Her awesome cover is the first sneak peek I get to share with you guys!!
What
if Texas never joined the United States, and instead became it's own
nation?
In THE CHARGE, that's exactly what
happened. In the 1830s, the Republic of Texas was taken over by a dictator
with superhuman powers who named himself the first King of Texas. Eighty years
later, the Texas Empire has fallen into ruin, but the story of the Texas royal
dynasty is far from over.
College
freshman Warren King wants nothing more than to enjoy a beer by the pool on his
summer break...but that's not what fate has in store for him. When Texas soldiers kidnap his little brother, he
embarks into a still-wild West to save him. While fumbling through a
search attempt in the lawless Texas Empire, he makes a discovery that changes
his life forever. He and his brother are estranged members of the Texas royal
family and the King wants them both dead. Now Warren must save his
brother and choose whether or not to be King, follow a King, or die before he
can retire his fake ID.
The Charge was a quarter-finalist for the 2012 Amazon Breakthrough Novel Award and won a
Publisher's Weekly review:
"A
solid cast of well-developed characters, including a “super-tall” royal Texan
family, stars in this thrill ride of a novel teetering between sci-fi adventure
and alternate historical epic...Easily shifting between characters’
perspectives, and relentless in its action, well-placed humor, and suspense,
this manuscript is a delight."
The Charge will be available in digital and print formats from Curiosity Quills Press on Texas Independence Day, 3/2/13. Go to www.facebook.com/thechargebook for updates.
