Jewel of Shaylar


                                   Laura Eno
                 Cover Reveal!!!


Laura & R2D2 stopped by to show off her new cover... which was really nice, but she wouldn't let little R2 stay with me. I know he wanted to. 

Oh well...
About Laura: 
 
Find her on: Website - Blog - Facebook - Twitter - Goodreads
 
About the Book:
 
Archaeologist David Alexander investigates the cave where his father disappeared and hurtles into another world, one filled with magic and bizarre creatures. The mad ravings in his father's journals of icemen and dragons may not be fantasies after all.
Convinced his father may still be alive, David begins a treacherous journey to find him and discover a way home. Along the way, he encounters a few unlikely friends. A Dreean warrior, a beautiful thief and a satyr join him as he searches.
David's arrival into this new world sets off an explosive chain reaction of events. Faced with powerful adversaries and few clues, he may not get the chance to rescue his father before disaster strikes, condemning both of them to death. Or worse.

Now...are you ready??!!

Yes?

The Cover:

It's as lovely as a newborn...though you'd never pose baby with a sword...just sayin'.
Best of luck Laura!!!

    Let me tell any potential reader: I'm not even a fan of fantasy and as a beta reader to this book, I couldn't put it down. The characters are so well written, you feel like as a reader you know them and Laura creates a world I was totally engaged in. I can't wait for book two!

      You've obviously never seen my 48-year-old body in a cheerleading skirt, Laura... You might want to rethink your hire. ;)

      I don't blame you. Though like Laura said, he is a chatty little guy...but then I've been guilty of that myself.
