THE COVER OF DAGGER'S SLEEP
A prince cursed to sleep.
A princess destined to wake him.
A kingdom determined to stop them.
High Prince Alexander has been cursed to a sleep like unto death, a curse that will end the line of the high kings and send the Seven Kingdoms of Tallahatchia into chaos. With his manservant to carry his luggage and his own superior intelligence to aid him, Alex sets off to find one of the Fae and end his curse one way or another.
A hundred years later, Princess Rosanna learns she is the princess destined by the Highest King to wake the legendary sleeping prince. With the help of the mysterious Daemyn Rand, can she find the courage to finish the quest as Tallahatchia wavers on the edge of war?
One curse connects them. A hundred years separate them. From the rushing
rivers of Tallahatchia’s mountains to the hall of the Highest king himself,
their quests will demand greater sacrifice than either of them could
imagine.

A blue cover! A fairytale retelling! A beautiful title! I'm so excited for this book, you guys - I've only read half of the Blades Of Acktar series (oops - I suppose I'll have to bump the rest higher up on my tbr!) but everyone raves over Tricia's writings, and I'm more than ready to hold this book in my hands! It sounds like its going to be epic ;).

who else is excited for Dagger's Sleep?
have any of you read the Blades of Acktar series?
(also, exciting news! Splickety's Dystopian Disaster issue releases today, and guess who's writing for it? *raises hand* I'd be beyond thrilled if you go check it out! The cover art is to die for <3)
(EDIT: Oh, I forgot to mention - there's been a smol update to the My Writings page, so for those of you with curious minds, scamper on over and take a look!)
IT'S SO PRETTY AND EPIC SOUNDING!!!
ReplyDeleteThis is going on my TBR, thank you for posting! :D
Gorgeous cover! Sounds interesting. I'm pretty leery of gender-bent fairytale retellings, as I feel like they could turn into a feminist agenda really fast. But I think it COULD be done really well--obviously, as I'm considering trying it, in that Rapunzel retelling I told you about a while ago.
ReplyDelete(ALSO THAT AMAZON PREVIEW SAYS SAVANNAH GRACE IN IT I'M DYING THIS IS FANTASTIC. *cough* Nope, nobody's excited.)
I'll go check out that Writings page. . . Curious minds? More like fangirls. =)
Is this a gender-bent Sleeping Beauty??? BECAUSE I NEEEED!!!!!! I have been wanting to try Tricia Mingerink's books for aaages. I SO NEED TO! All her books sound amazing, and this one's COVER! *heart-eyes* I'm in love.
ReplyDeleteAlsooo...I'M SO RIDICULOUSLY EXCITED THAT YOU'RE IN SPLICKETY. EEEEEEEEE!!!!!
I really love the font of this cover! It's such an exciting moment to see a cover for the first time, so yay that you got to reveal it to the world! :D
ReplyDeleteAAAGHHH SO PRETTY! :D And I love gender-bent stories!!! ^_^
