I welcome YA Fantasy authors, Andrea Engel and Leslie Engel on to the blog today.
Let's take a look at their latest book...
"An otherworldly setting, grounded by irresistible melodrama and an
unshakeable protagonist worth rooting for."
Kirkus
Is this
The End of Sadie Myers?
Sadie’s life has become a dark brew of strange
visions, unearthly messages, and vivid dreams in which a mysterious shadow man
follows her every move. Are all these bizarre happenings real or figments of a
troubled mind? When Sadie Myers is pulled into a world so different from her
own, everything she thinks she knows is turned upside down. Will she find the
truth behind these unsettling episodes? Can Sadie muster every ounce of her
courage in order to walk through the shadows, the fear of unknown evil, and get
to the other side alive?
Now for a look between the pages
CHAPTER
ONE
Earth,
Spin: Check
“Run,
Sadie! Run!” Gramma Rose yelled.
Where’s
her voice coming from? “I’m running as fast as I
can!” I screamed, but the wind swallowed my words. I looked down at my feet;
they disappeared into darkness.
Terrorized
by the lightning storm overhead, I jumped every time an earth-shaking boom of
thunder
followed a jagged strike. With the tempest so close, I feared being
struck by the next bolt. Sideways
heavy rain pelted my face like burning
needles, stabbing mercilessly.
“I
can’t see!” I ran smack into a tangle of branches that formed a maze. Their
sharp teeth snapped at me as
I crawled through. I knew home was on the other
side. I had to get there.
Rumbling
peals of thunder cracked, one after the other, shifting the ground beneath me.
I pushed my hands hard against my ears to block out the loudest booms. Red
lightning jolted my body with electric vibrations.
Red flashes strobed all
around. I sensed the shadow man behind me, but I couldn’t tell where he was.
“Keep
running, Sadie!” Gramma Rose called out.
Petrified,
I thought this was it: The End of Sadie
Myers.
“I
don’t want to die!” I yelled back.
The
sound of footsteps squished behind me. I imagined breath on my neck. I felt his
fingers graze my hair with creepy restraint.
“No! Leave me alone!”
Where can I buy this fabulous book?
