First Blurbs for Witchlanders!

Posted by on Apr 27, 2011 | 7 comments

I’m so thrilled that these three wonderful authors have provided blurbs for my forthcoming book, Witchlanders.  I hope they pique your curiosity about the book, which will be coming out from Atheneum on August 30th.  It’s getting close!

“As unique and enchanting a world as Garth Nix’s Abhorsen myth: here’s a thrilling tale of the clash between two magical races, Witchlanders and Baen, seen through the eyes of very likeable young characters. And it’s written in beautiful prose. Warning – you may stay up all night until you are finished and you will want more! Lena Coakley is definitely a new star in the fantasy firmament.”

-O.R. Melling, author of The Chronicles of Faerie

Witchlanders is a novel that crackles with magic and storytelling and vibrates with the music of words.”

-Arthur Slade, author of The Hunchback Assignments

Witchlanders is a spellbinding fantasy set in a complex and richly rendered world. Coakley deftly balances a rip-roaring adventure with the more somber nuances of a culture steeped in conflict, and her writing is some of the most gorgeous I’ve read in a debut novel. Brava!”

Elizabeth C. Bunce, author of A Curse Dark as Gold and StarCrossed

Thanks guys!  Now I’m blushing!
