Free and Discounted Annals of Alasia eBooks

FREE and Discounted
Annals of Alasia eBooks
for a Short Time Only!

I have had the pleasure of reading and reviewing several of Annie Douglass Lima's middle grade fantasy stories, two of them from the Annals of Alasia series. All three books in the series are now on promotion on Amazon Kindle. One is for free and the other two are discounted to $0.99 each. I have included links to the books as well as links to both of my reviews.

In the Enemy's Service
FREE through Tuesday

In the Enemy's Service (Annals of Alasia) by [Lima, Annie Douglass]

About the Book:

Title: In the Enemy's Service | Author: Annie Douglass Lima | | Pages: 333 | Genre: Fantasy | Recommended Age: Middle Grade

Book Description:

Enslaved when invaders take over Alasia, Anya discovers ways to spy on the enemy and slip information to the resistance. But then she uncovers a disturbing reference to her own family and is confronted by a stranger who seems to know her secrets. Holding her life in his hands, he claims to have proof that Anya’s father was involved in the betrayal that led to the Invasion itself.

In the Enemy's Service is the second book in the Annals of Alasia, but the series can be read in any order, and each book can stand on its own.

$0.99 through Tuesday

 Prince of Alasia (Annals of Alasia) by [Douglass Lima, Annie]

About the Book:

Title: Prince of Alasia | Author: Annie Douglass Lima | | Pages: 234 | Genre: Fantasy | Recommended Age: Middle Grade

Book Description:

Twelve-year-old Prince Jaymin, heir to the throne of Alasia, barely escapes with his life when invaders from neighboring Malorn attack. Accompanied by Erik, his young bodyguard and friend, Jaymin flees to a nearby town to live in hiding. There, coming face to face with the hardships suffered by the poor, he determines to improve his people’s lives someday when he takes the throne, assuming he can reclaim his kingdom.

In his struggle to retain his identity and yet blend in with children in the local school, Jaymin’s life depends on his ability to protect his secret from both enemy troops and unsuspecting townsfolk. Meanwhile, Erik must resort to his skills in unarmed combat to defend Jaymin against everyone from a gang of schoolyard bullies to the Malornians who regularly patrol the streets looking for trouble – and for the missing prince.

As the search intensifies and his enemy’s suspicions grow, Jaymin seeks desperately for a way to save his kingdom and himself. Then he stumbles upon a startling discovery that will challenge his assumptions and forever change his view of Malorn and the events that altered his life.

Prince of Alasia is the first book in the Annals of Alasia, but the series can be read in any order, and each book can stand on its own.

Prince of Malorn
$0.99 through Tuesday

Prince of Malorn (Annals of Alasia) by [Lima, Annie Douglass]

About the Book:

Title: Prince of Malorn | Author: Annie Douglass Lima | | Pages: 460 | Genre: Fantasy | Recommended Age: Middle Grade

Book Description:

One major obstacle stands between seventeen-year-old Prince Korram and the throne that is his birthright: Regent Rampus. Temporary ruler of Malorn, Rampus has no intention of giving up his position when the crown prince comes of age – or of allowing the prince to live long enough to reach that age.

Desperate to build an army of his own to stand against the regent, Korram treks into the Impassable Mountains to try to recruit the one segment of Malornian society not under Rampus’s control. But can he lead a band of untrained hunters and gatherers to victory against the full might of the Malornian military? Or will they all be crushed by the grasping hand of the regent before the prince can claim his rightful throne?

Prince of Malorn is the third book in the Annals of Alasia, but the series can be read in any order, and each book can stand on its own.

In the Enemy's Service and More!

In the Enemy's Service



My Review:

I recently discovered this exciting new middle-grade fantasy series by Annie Douglas Lima. She sent me a free digital copy of her second book, In the Enemy's Service, for my honest review.

The main character in this story is a 10-year-old girl named Anya. She's small for her age, but she's able to hold her own in an adult world where corruption and murder are rife.

Anya wants to do what is right, but in her need to survive and to help her country succeed against its enemies, she learns to lie. Sometimes her lies get her into trouble.

Even though this is the second book in a great action/adventure fantasy series, you don't need to read them in order, because each book stands alone. Usually that is not the case with books in a series.

This book does contain violence and people die in the story. It's certainly not sugar-coated in the telling. Some kids might be more sensitive than others, so parents should keep that in mind. I think kids in grade 5 and up will enjoy reading this book. Even adults will enjoy it.

Purchase






Annie's latest book in the series has just been published! It's called, Prince of Malorn. You can find out more about it on Annie's blog here.
