Giveaway for Blood Hound by James Osiris Baldwin

Howdy! It's Karen with another giveaway from INDIE Books Gone Wild. I have the first book in the Hound of Eden series, a rather intriguing blend of mafia fiction with magic. I did the line editing and Eliza did the proofreading for this book.

Title: Blood Hound (Alexi Sokolsky: Hound of Eden) 
Author: James Osiris Baldwin
Genre: Fantasy (urban fantasy)
Length: 339 pages
Buy Link: Amazon

Synopsis:
"One of the first things every new mage learns about magic is that—despite your newly discovered powers over the universe—you are forever a struggling speck of krill in a very large, very cold, very dangerous ocean."

Alexi Sokolsky is a spook, a hitman who uses his magical talents to help him in the hunt. However, his place in the Yaroschenko Organisatiziya - the Russian Mafiya that has dominated New York since the 1960s - is more than tenuous. Socially ostracized and on the wrong side of a power struggle between the old gangsters and the new, Alexi accepts a job that he hopes will gain him enough respect to survive the dog-eat-dog world of criminal politics... a job which drags him straight into the fight over a fruit from the garden of Eden, a humanoid being known as a Gift Horse.

The Gift Horse's flesh could make a world-changing monster out of any mage, and Alexi's opponents - an immensely powerful maverick from the Italian Mob and an unknown psychopath with the ability to summon demons - both know it. Alexi must decide whether he will answer the Gift Horse's call to become the cure for the sickness attacking his world, or if he is part of the disease that will destroy it.

The first installment in the Hound of Eden series, Blood Hound is the story of Alexi Sokolsky, a wizard and hitman for the Russian Mafia who is drawn into the cosmic war between a universal lifeform known as GOD and the Morphorde, the cancerous viral entity trying to destroy it.

Giveaway for The Price of Freedom by Lauren Parkes

Howdy! It's Karen with another giveaway from INDIE Books Gone Wild. This time I have a rather intriguing young adult book that I'd classify as dystopian fiction: The Price of Freedom by Lauren Parkes. I did the line editing and Jennifer did the proofreading for this book.

Title: The Price of Freedom
Author: Lauren Parkes
Genre: Young Adult (dystopian)
Length: 313 pages
Buy Link: Amazon

Synopsis: 
If only the bombing of Dover hadn’t gone wrong. Or maybe that was exactly how they planned it: four dead border guards and a stolen casement of fertility medication. The looted cargo of Fertility shocked the nation—a nation grieving the loss of natural fertility, a people reliant upon assisted birthing schemes to provide a next generation.

It lodged a stone the size of a coconut in the windpipes of every twenty-something female with a pulse. Everyone that is, except Jade Rose. Newlywed Jade did not need Fertility to get pregnant. Focusing on a way to stay under the radar amidst rising political tensions, Jade inadvertently finds herself the target of resistance movement Freedom.

David ‘Blue’ Azure should not have been anywhere near Dover terminal when the bomb exploded. The gun wasn’t even his. Dejected, he enlists in Freedom. But when a plan to recover the stolen Fertility becomes a kidnapping, Blue comes face to face with Jade.

Jade and Blue should have nothing in common. Young, pregnant wife of a pharmaceutical heir and a murderer.

But they did. Once.

On the day of the Dover attack.

That plan for peace is threatened by the local politics of the Mirrored City, a place ruled by dual theocratic governments. Beneath the tenuous accord between the two halves of the city lies centuries of hostility that threaten to break out into open war. Treacherous conspiracies, deadly diplomacy, a string of grisly murders, and the return of the Old Magic could spell the end for all Creation.

No one is who or what they seem. A quest for answers leads the champions to a deadly battle with their greatest foe yet: themselves.

Giveaway for Amendments by H.M. Lynn

Howdy! Karen here with another IBGW book giveaway. I'm thrilled to announce the recent release of Amendments by H.M. Lynn. I did the line editing on this book, and Mollie did the proofreading.


I really enjoyed editing this book because the concept was quite fascinating: each person is allowed to "amend" their lives twice, basically to go back to a situation and make a different choice. But a fascinating concept is only one part of this book--really it is the relationship between the two main characters, the sisters, that this book is all about. And that's where the book really excels. It uses this fascinating concept as a backdrop to explore this relationship. My favorite line in the book is when a character says, "Wasted amendments aren’t the ones that don’t work out; they’re the ones you didn’t need an envelope to fix in the first place."

Title: Amendments
Author: H.M. Lynn 
Genre: Speculative fiction
Length: 353 pages
Buy Link: Amazon

Synopsis from Amazon: Emelia must choose. Her sister or her soulmate.

In a world not dissimilar to our own, the Administration have ensured that the human race should not have to live with any regrets. Like millions before her, Emelia now has the chance to go back and make the 'correct' decisions. The little envelope that contains her amendment will change not just her life, but that of the people she loves the most. Her sister Finola, whose reckless and self-destructive nature has led her dangerously close to the sinister Marchers movement, and Gabe, the rock that has been holding the remnants of her family together for as long as she can remember.

Caught between saving Finola or happiness with Gabe, she must struggle to predict how the ripples of her amendments will spread. Two envelopes, two choices, one life. 

What would you amend?

Celebrating Two Years - EIC Tia Silverthorne Bach

Happy Friday, IBGW followers! Jo here. Today, I’d like to share something with you all about my fellow IEC, Tia Silverthorne Bach. You see, today is her two year anniversary with INDIE Books Gone Wild, and I’m gonna tell you a little about how that relationship formed. We’re gonna have a little giveaway at the end of this post, so get ready! Anyone who subscribes to our newsletter will also get an e-mail today about the books IBGW has worked on over the last twelve months. So, lots of amazing things happening on the blog today. Ready? Grab that coffee, get your clicking finger ready, and let’s get going!

I met Tia during the Author Blog Challenge in June of 2012. She and I hit it off right away. We have a lot of things in common—yes, other than being complete grammar nerds and lovers of the written word in general. Usually, when I’m thinking a certain way about something, she’s in complete agreement. We fostered a friendship that’s proven to be one of the best I’ve ever made.

Not only is she an amazing person, she’s also one hell of an editor. It’s rare to find someone who cares so much about their client(s), and her values made her an indispensable addition to the IBGW team. Together, we formed the idea to keep all editing in house so a better product emerged on the other side. It was tiresome to hear the complaints about Indie novels being poorly edited, written, and covered. Our mission, from day one, was to change that stigma.

How many people do you meet in your lifetime that hold the same values and have the same ideals as you? Let me tell you, they’re few and far between.

Not only is Tia a stellar editor, she’s also a fantastic author and book reviewer. If you haven’t been to her personal blog, I invite you to poke around here. For her book review blog, go here. But, I digress.

Last year, almost two years to the day from the time I first interacted with Tia, we met for the first time in person. Sure, we’d had Skype conversations, but it’s not the same thing. She’s just as lovely in person as she is via e-mail. I think, if someone needed a pair of shoes, she’d give them the ones she was wearing and never think twice about it. But she demands respect at the same time, and doesn’t let people push her around or take advantage of her kindness.

I’m so grateful to be able to call Tia my friend, and even more grateful she decided to partner with me in this crazy IBGW venture.

So, to celebrate her awesomeness, I’m doing a little giveaway of all the books she’s helped bring to market with IBGW over the last year (or written). Enjoy entering and helping me celebrate the amazing business that’s INDIE Books Gone Wild with Tia by my side at the helm!

List of books included:
I, Zombie
Tbinkerknese 101
Chasing Shadows
Not Born Here: Stories from Marsden, NC
Fractured Glass: A Novel Anthology

New Release Giveaway - A Call to Arms

Howdy! Karen here with another IBGW book giveaway. I'm thrilled to announce the release of A Call to Arms: Book One of the Chronicles of Arden by Shiriluna Nott and SaJa H. I did the line editing on this book, and Jennifer did the proofreading.

While I was working on this book, I had to stop myself multiple times and remember that I was supposed to be editing the book--I got so caught up in the story that I forgot I had a job to do! This fantasy novel has a strong cast of characters who immediately come to life on the page with their individual personalities. The main character, Gib, is someone the audience can relate to--the fish out of water who is thrust into a new life he never expected, and we see the ways in which he deals with his new role, including a budding romance. But enough gushing from me. Here's more specific information about the book as well as info about the giveaway.

Title: A Call to Arms: Book One of the Chronicles of Arden
Authors: Shiriluna Nott and SaJa H.
Genre: Epic fantasy; LGBT fiction
Length: 313 pages

Synopsis:
From Amazon: War is brewing on the eastern border of Arden. The shaky truce between Arden and the neighboring realm of Shiraz has all but dissolved, and both sides are building their forces for battle. But in the quiet farming community of Willowdale, the rumors of war are the least of young Gibben Nemesio’s concerns. With both parents dead and two younger brothers to care for, Gib doesn't have time to focus on anything besides keeping food on the table. Everything changes the day he receives a conscription notice and must report to Arden’s capital.

In Silver City, Gib is forced to leave his life as a farmer behind when he enters the legendary Academy of Arden as a sentinel trainee. If called to war, he will have no choice but to go, for the Sentinels of Arden are the realm's first line of defense against the evils beyond the border.

A newcomer to this breathtaking city of stone, Gibben finds himself thrown into a world of cutthroat politics and scandals that run deeper than he ever imagined. Caught between the responsibilities to his family and to his country, Gib struggles to find balance. When he unwittingly overhears a sinister plot--that if seen to fruition will bear dire consequences for all of Arden--the young sentinel trainee must find a way to warn those in power before it is too late.
