Cover Reveal: Piper Prince by Amber Argyle

 

Piper Prince (Forbidden Forest #2)
Author: Amber Argyle
Genre: YA Fantasy
Publication Date: April 2019

Description:

All magic is light. If that light be darkened, shadow and punishment come.

Long ago, a curse fell upon the land—a curse of forgetting and wraiths, a curse that ensured no daughters were born to the pied pipers in over three centuries. The pipers were all that stood between the humanity and utter destruction, so they did the only thing they could: they stole the daughters of the nearby kingdom with their hypnotizing melodies. With the sons born from those unions, they continued to defend against the wraiths and fight the curse, even though they were slowly losing.

Larkin was one of those daughters. Stolen by Denan and married against her will, she found herself falling in love with the very man who had taken everything from her, the man who had made her a princess. Together, they discovered that she was the first woman in three centuries to possess the magic of the pipers, and therefore, the only person capable of breaking the ancient curse.

But breaking the curse means unraveling the very past the curse is intent on keeping secret. The answer lies buried in the crypts of the Black Druids, men who consider Larkin a traitor they’ll kill on sight. Embedded in the intrigues of their court, she unearths a dark conspiracy destined to hasten the destructive power of the curse—a conspiracy aimed at destroying her piper prince.

Witch Fall (Witch Song #3)

Author: Amber Argyle

Genre: YA Paranormal

Release Date: January 15, 2014

Buy Links: Amazon / Barnes and Noble

Description:

All things fall.

Even Witches.

Supreme in their dominion over seasons, storms, and sea, the Witches have forgotten the unmatched destructiveness of mankind. And among the weapons men seek are the magical songs of the Witches.

Lilette is one of the few who see the decadence and decay weakening the Witches. As an outsider amid her own kind, can she help them survive the coming war?

Prequel to:

Witch Fall is the third book in the Witch Song series, but it's a prequel to the others and can be read as a stand-alone. The book introduces the reader to leading lady Lilette - a witch who is an outcast within her own kind. The Witches have become incredibly powerful and relish in controlling things like the weather, the seasons, and the sea itself. Their pride has grown enough to blind them to mankind - and the fact that they want the magic songs of the Witches for themselves, to use as weapons against one another. Lilette seems to be the only witch who sees the truth of what the Witches have become, along with the impending war with the humans. Will she be able to convince the witches to help her fight the humans before it's too late?

Within pages of starting this book, I found myself drawn into Lilette's world and her struggles. I ended up reading the entire book in just about one sitting because I couldn't tear myself away from what was happening. I loved Lilette as the main character - she's strong, smart, down to earth, and compassionate. She has her weaknesses and flaws as well, which only made her more realistic and easy for me to identify with. The plot was fantastic and I thoroughly enjoyed learning as much as I could about the Witches, their world and history, along with the world around them. The author did a wonderful job describing everything with great detail and vivid imagery - so that I felt like I was inside the book beside Lilette the entire time. There's a lot that goes on in the book, which introduces a new reader to the characters, world, and overall plot to the series - or it gives readers who have read the first two books a deeper look into these places, people, and histories. I never felt confused or overwhelmed with the information, which I believe to be a great asset for readers new to the series. The writing was fast paced but not rushed - it flowed naturally through each scene. Overall, this was a fantastic prequel (or third book) in the series and I highly recommend it for readers who are familiar with the books or those who wish to start them. Fans of fantasy and paranormal fiction will definitely want to pick this one up!

Witch Born (Witch Song #2)
Author: Amber Argyle
Genre: YA Paranormal 
Release Date: September 5, 2012

Description:

Brusenna thought it was finished. 

She defeated the Dark Witch, saving the Haven Witches from imprisonment and death. She found love and a place to belong. 

She was wrong. 

Haven is not the sanctuary it appears to be. Even love is in danger of slipping away like water through cupped hands. 

Some things can't be saved. 

A new threat merges with the old as the Witches’ dark history begins to catch up with them. Only Brusenna knows the extent of the danger and how to stop it, though doing so might cost her everything. 

Including her life. 

Will Brusenna be required to make the ultimate sacrifice?
  

 

Defining moment during your youth when you realized you wanted to be a writer. 


I can’t remember a time when I didn’t want to be a writer. When teachers asked what we wanted to be when we grow up, my answer was always a writer or a ballerina—since I have the grace of a one-legged zombie, I think I chose well.

I grew up with a book in my hands and the smell of aged paper in my nostrils. I wrote a story about mermaids and the lost City of Atlantis when I was in middle school. In high school, I had a short story published in a national newspaper and a magazine.

In college, I majored in English. Everything I did was building toward becoming a writer.
