The Christmas season is one of my favorite times of year! I love every aspect of it. Giving gifts. Spending time with family. Singing carols. Rejoicing over my Savior’s birth. So … even though we are gearing up to celebrate Thanksgiving, I am already listening to Christmas music and eagerly awaiting the chance to set up a tree this weekend!
And … I have already started dreaming up Christmas gift ideas which brings me to the point of this post! Last year, I offered readers the chance to order signed copies of my books to give as a gift for Christmas, and it went over so well, I knew I had to offer it again.
So to streamline the process, I’ve created a handy-dandy order form! If you are familiar with The Songkeeper Chronicles and know how it works from last year, you can go straight there. If you’d like a little more info first, read on …
Order Books Now
Haven’t read the books yet and trying to decide if they would be a good fit? You can read detailed descriptions of each of the books here: Orphan’s Song, Songkeeper, Song of Leira or read the highlights version below. Or scroll down to pricing info.
Story Info: In The Songkeeper Chronicles, music is magic and one girl’s song can shape or break her world. When Birdie accidentally draws the attention of the warlord who rules her country and would like nothing better than to control the power of her song, she is forced on the run.
Alternating View Points: Birdie (13 y/o girl), Ky (14 y/o boy) and Amos (50ish y/o “Scottish” peddler)
Fantastic Creatures: griffins, talking animals, saif (horse/deer), chimera (3-headed monsters from Greek myths, part lion, part snake, and part goat) and more …
Weapons: music, sling and stones, a magical (and slightly temperamental) sword, and a bronze dirk with a hawk’s head for the pommel
Adventures: Well … you’ll just have to read the books to find out. :)
Reader’s Age Range: ages 12+ (but I’ve got lots of adult readers too!)
Because of the split point of view narrative and the wide age range of the main characters, these books have hit their mark with a fairly wide audience, which I think is really cool!
Pricing/Shipping Breakdown:
Individual books: $14.00 each
Trilogy Set discount: $40.00
Hand-Annotated Copy* (limited supply): $25.00 each
Packing/Shipping: $3.00 for first book, plus $1 for each additional book
(Note: US only – sorry, friends-in-other-amazing-places!)
(*Hand-Annotated Copy: This would be a great gift for a long-time Songkeeper Chronicles fan. It includes hand-written notes from yours truly with all the background info you could ever want! Notes on early drafts, character backgrounds, the writing process and the inspiration for certain ideas. You’ll also get notes on songs to listen to while reading! Writing out all those notes does take a considerable amount of time/effort which is the reason for the increased price/limited supply for this unique gift.)
