Hi Everyone!
Today's YA Indie Spotlight features Megg Jensen. Megg is one of the authors writing under the DarkSide Publishing label, which is a group of indie authors working together to put out amazing YA literature. This is such a unique concept, and I plan to feature all of the DarkSide writers in the coming weeks, so stay tuned!
Megg co-runs DarkSide publishing, and is the author of the YA novel, Anathema.
SUMMARY
Reychel is a slave girl surrounded by magic, lies and manipulation. Her best friend disappears in the middle of the night leaving Reychel to face her fifteenth birthday, the day her master burns his brand into the back of her bald head, alone. She's sheltered from the outside world and doesn't have any hope for escape, but when people desperate for freedom ask for her help can Reychel learn to believe in herself?
RATING: A mild PG for violence and kissing.
