The News You’ve Been Waiting For!

THE TALON OF THE HAWK ARCsBeen champing at the bit for Ursula’s book? It’s heeeerrre….

That’s right! I have ARCs (Advance Reader Copies, for those not in the know) of THE TALON OF THE HAWK, book 3 of THE TWELVE KINGDOMS. I’m really excited for you all to read this one. It gutted me to write and I’m still a more than a little obsessed with this one. (I may have faxed 94 pages of corrections on the galley proofs – my production editor actually called me “Nutbar,” which she insists it a term of affection. Fortunately she does love me and promised to make as many of the changes as seemed within the realm of sanity.)

ANYWAY.

So, I have ARCs! Want one? Let me know! Ping me in the comments or elsewhere. You all know where to find me. I’ve already got a growing list, so let me know soon! I don’t know if it’s up on NetGalley yet – can anyone tell?

ALSO!

I really thought I’d posted this already, at least as a news item, but when I found out I was focusing on the release of UNDER HIS TOUCH and so I guess I missed putting it here. All y’all who’ve written to ask about Dafne’s book??

YOU GET DAFNE’S BOOK!!

Yay!!!

(Apparently this is all caps day at JeffeKennedy.com)

Here’s the official announcement, which is not easy to read, I know:

Jeffe Kennedy's THE PAGES OF THE MIND, the first in a new series set in the world of THE MARK OF THE TALA, a woman finds herself trapped in a foreign land by a warrior king who cannot understand her clever words, to Peter Senftleben at Kensington, in a two-book deal, for publication in Summer 2016, by Connor Goldsmith at Fuse Literary (World). Dramatic rights: Brandy Rivers at ICM Partners.If you don’t want to squint, it says:

The “woman” in question there is, naturally, our favorite librarian. This story is going to be SO fun! You see, Dafne is going to have to go on a quest, because of all the shiz that goes down at the end of TALON. Because of what Ursula – oh, wait. That’s right. You guys haven’t read it yet!

Hee hee hee.

The point is, you CAN! So let me know if you want an ARC to read and review! Happy Friday everyone! 🙂

  1. Want!!!!!!!!!
    Gimme!!

    Seriously: I am drooling and wanting an ARC so much!

    And I think I already squee-ed over Daphne, but will say again: Yay! Cograts!

  2. Ooooo. I’ve never had an ARC. And it is the one with bad-ass babe with the sword. I was so glad to see that the cover won the contest. I would love to get a copy. 🙂

  3. You know what? I really really really want an ARC mostly because I would love to put it in my ARC collection next to one of Darynda’s, plus I love to be in the know early and spread the word. However, I will buy TTotH regardless so I can have it in my Kindle collection (and of course a pre-order). A paper ARC is like the forbidden fruit and cannot be shared electronically, making it especially delectable and off limits. A seductive little minx on the shelf that no one can touch but me . . . Bwahaha! Ursula and I need a serious sit-down.

  4. Mine Shaft meet up. Soon. (I’ll PM you)

    Oh boy oh boy oh boy! *happy dancing holding glass of Chardonnay*

  5. Oooooh it’s not up on Netgalley yet. I’ve been stalking there waiting for it to pop up. The cover is so gorgeous! I’d love to be on the list to receive an ARC!

      1. Oh my gosh! Thank you so much. I will just have to live without the cover until it comes out. Thanks again! I’ll send you my address!

  6. Okay, now that release week is over, I can start visiting blogs again, and I find this awesome post.

    SQUEE! Of course I want one. And total huge squees for your sale! You rock! I’m so happy for you, Jeffe. =o)
