Blood's PrideBlood’s Pride
by Evie Manieri

A generation has passed since the Norlanders’ great ships bore down on Shadar, and the Dead Ones slashed and burned the city into submission, enslaving the Shadari people.

Now the Norlander governor is dying and, as his three alienated children struggle against the crushing isolation of their lives, the Shadari rebels spot their opening and summon the Mongrel, a mysterious mercenary warrior who has never yet lost a battle. But her terms are unsettling: she will name her price only after the Norlanders have been defeated.

A single question is left for the Shadari: is there any price too high for freedom?

 

 

 


Here’s what people are saying about Blood’s Pride:

“Evie Manieri clearly has a talent for intricate plot details and I could hardly believe that amongst all of today’s fantasy, she could come up with a world so different and unlike anything I’d come across before.” – Book Monkey

“…delightfully dark and delicious …one of my tips to watch this year in the Fantasy debuts categories.” –  Falcata Times

“…a truly exciting debut that suggests this is just the tip of a potential ‘fantasy classic’ iceberg.” – Fantasy Book Review

“…a dashing first novel, highlighted by an intricate plot well served by complex and unpredictable characters, and an overall delectable theatrical quality that sets the book apart from many other fantasy works.” – Fantasy Book Critic

Evie ManieriAbout the Author:

Evie Manieri graduated from Wesleyan University with a degree in Mediaeval History and Theatre, disciplines that continue to influence her work in about equal measure. She is enthralled by intricacy, and when not weaving together the threads of her plots, she can be found knitting airy lace shawls and singing soprano with New York’s Renaissance Street Singers. Evie lives with her family in New York.

You’ve got three chances to win what sounds like a great read from a new author. And of course, this one counts towards your Women of Genre Fiction Reading Challenge as well.  Don’t forget to check back Monday to see if you’ve won and every Friday for more free books from JFB! Thanks Jo!
