Well guess what? She is going to be releasing a book later on this year. Now she's not doing a cover reveal, but she is doing a highlight, and I'm helping out with that, so such is the nature of this post.
Here is the cover in question. Isn't it cool? It's got a griffin on it! That right there is enough to make me want to read it.
And here is the blurb for the story, if the griffin and the fact that Gillian Adams wrote it isn't quite convincing enough.
Every generation has a Songkeeper – one chosen to keep the memory of the Song alive. And in every generation, there are those who seek to destroy the chosen one.
When Birdie’s song attracts the attention of a notorious Khelari soldier, she is captured and forced into a centuries old conflict plagued with ancient secrets and betrayals. Rescued by traveling peddler Amos McElhenny, Birdie flees the clutches of her enemies, determined to discover the truth behind the Song’s power.
Ky Huntyr has stolen many a thing in his time as a street-wise thief and senior member of the Underground—a gang of orphans banded together to survive—but he never thought he would be guilty of successfully stealing a priceless treasure from the Khelari and bringing their wrath on his comrades. Haunted by the tragic consequences of his raid, Ky joins Birdie and Amos in hopes of drawing the Khelari after him to keep the Underground safe.
But war soon threatens all of Leira, and the enemy is closing in. When Amos’ shadowed past threatens to undo them all, Birdie is forced to face the destiny that awaits her as the Songkeeper of Leira.
Is it weird to say I like Ky already? Because I do.
Here is a little bit about Gillian. You can check out her blog, because it's totally amazing, and this is the link to the kick start page where you can find hers and several other upcoming Christian fantasy books. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/enclave/enclave-publishing-fall-releases
Gillian Bronte Adams was born with a pen in her hand, a sword at her side, and a saddle beneath her feet. As a speculative fiction writer from the great state of Texas, she delights in combining epic adventure and fantasy with themes that point to the greatest story of all—or, as she refers to it, writing to the echoes of eternity. During the day, she works as the Equine Director at a Christian youth camp, while at night, she kicks off her boots and spurs and transforms into a novelist.
