A KIRKUS STAR! TIME FOR ANOTHER ENCHANTER HEIR ARC GIVEAWAY!

Well, now. More than a week has passed since my last giveaway, and a lot has happened. The rain stopped, I had a fantastic birthday, and The Enchanter Heir got a starred review from Kirkus!
Here's an excerpt:
...the twisty narrative works, propelled by the deft characterizations of tortured, frustrated, desperate Jonah and fierce, feral, determined Emma and held together by the ubiquitous soundtrack of the blues, both literally and metaphorically. Chima orchestrates a world gravid with smoke and grit and sudden death, throbbing with hopeless longings, messy affections, festering resentments, passionate hungers, inevitable betrayals, and miraculous flashes of beauty and grace.
A smoldering story soaked in tears, sweat and blood, constantly threatening to blaze into an inferno. Spellbinding. 

Whoa. Fans self.  I also received more Enchanter Heir ARCs from my publisher and my first actual copies of The Crimson Crown paperback (coming your way October 1.) 


And, so...I think it's time for another giveaway! 

Here are the deets! I'm giving away signed Enchanter Heir ARCs and swag to three lucky winners. Begins tonight at midnight, ends in seven days. If you won before, please give somebody else a chance to win. U.S. only!
a Rafflecopter giveaway

  16. I found your first book "The Warrior Heir" at a Goodwill store while combing through the books. Before I had even finished it I started tracking down the next one. I am a 40 year old who just started reading fiction again within the last year. I read all three within a month or so. I am looking forward to the continuation of the story.

Great stuff--can't wait for Enchanter Heir to come out!

  97. Have been with the Heir Series since my mother got me into reading in middle school. Warrior Heir was one of the few books I enjoyed those first few years of getting into reading(also got to make a pretty cool quilt book report for it in 8th grade). Have reread the first three books for the 5th or 6th time. I have also read all of the Seven realms series a few times.

    Love your work and keep it up

  100. I am such a huge fan of your work! Besides just being some of my favorite books, your novels really inspire me to pursue my dream of being a novelist myself one day. One of the things I love most about reading your books is seeing how real your characters are - I feel like I can pick them up, place them in any context, and still know exactly how they would react. This gives me something to work on in my own writing! Congrats on the positive feedback - I'm sure you'll be getting plenty more of that! - and I cannot wait to pick up a copy of Enchanter Heir as soon as it hits the bookshelves!

  105. I have been a huge fan ever since The Warrior Heir, and Cinda just keeps on writing more and more amazing books. Mrs. Chima is actually one of the few authors that I've ever read more than one book series of. She is quite fantastic, and I can't wait for The Enchanter Heir!
