Blog Tour: Turning Point

Today I would like to introduce a new boxed set called Turning Point. It includes 7 inspirational, young adult novels. And, guess what? It is only $.99! That's less than I paid for either of the two books in the boxed set that I had bought previously.

One of those books rates as one of my favorites, too--By Darkness Hid, by Jill Williamson. I read this book several years ago, one day while staying home from a slight sickness. I read all day long, it was so good, but started to wonder why it was taking so long to finish. Then, I figured out it was 500 pages long. But, that did not stop me from reading the next two books, one of which was considerably longer, in the next week. I was caught up in the adventure and the romance of the story. I could hardly wait and never ceased imagining scenarios in which Vrell Sparrow revealed her identity and disguised gender to Achan, our hansom hero.

But enough about that. I shall now introduce the 7 novels featured in Turning Point.


By Darkness Hid

Jill Williamson

Given the chance to train as a squire, kitchen servant Achan Cham hopes to pull himself out of his pitiful life and become a Kingsguard Knight. When Achan’s owner learns of his training, he forces Achan to spar with the Crown Prince–more of a death sentence than an honor. Meanwhile, strange voices in Achan’s head cause him to fear he’s going mad. While escorting the prince to a council presentation, their convoy is attacked. Achan is wounded and arrested, but escapes from prison–only to discover a secret about himself he never believed possible.

How far will Allison go to keep the secrets she can never tell anyone?

It’s Complicated

Mardan’s Mark

She convinces their caretaker, Aldan, and his brother slaves to share the perilous journey home. This ragtag group of unlikely heroes sets out on a quest — pursued by cutthroat pirates, merciless priests, and marauding soldiers — to return the heir to his kingdom before war breaks out. In this epic adventure fantasy, Srilani and Aldan risk everything to save a prince and a nation, discovering along the way that death is not their deepest fear.

Glass Girl

Laura Anderson Kurk

After her older brother Wyatt is killed in a jealousy-fueled incident and her mother disappears, Meg Kavanagh decides surviving is easy—it’s living that takes guts.
