Hi, Everyone!
My name is Andrea Pearson and I'm an author of middle grade and young adult fantasy. In celebration of the completion of my Kilenya Series, I'm giving away eBooks! Read on for more details. :-)
The Key of Kilenya, first book in the Kilenya Series (with 50 five-star reviews on Amazon), is available everywhere for free (
Kindle,
Nook,
Smashwords),
but only until the 18th of January.
It's originally $3.99, and is geared to readers 10 and older. If it were a movie, it would be rated PG. No swearing or vulgarity, and very minimal violence.
Here's the book description:
We all have a choice—but we can’t choose the consequences.
Jacob
Clark is chased down a path that takes him to another world—a world
where he is a wanted young man. The Lorkon want to control him and the
special powers he possesses. The people of the new world want him to
save them from the destruction of the Lorkon. All Jacob wants is to go
home, but even that choice has consequences. He doesn’t know what to do
and if he waits too long, the new world and the one he came from will be
destroyed. As Jacob looks for people he can trust, he finds himself in
the center of the fight for freedom—both for himself and the people he’s
come to know.
Jacob has no idea where the path he chooses will take him, but once the choice has been made—bring on the consequences.
Back to Andrea. :-) I had so much fun writing this book! I came up with the idea for the magical key when I was 10 - the same age as many of my readers - and built on it until I was 22, when I sat down and actually wrote the book. The Kilenya Series has sold really well and I've been so excited to find people just as passionate about the books as I am. :-)
The second book,
The Ember Gods, is available for $0.99 until January 18, but you don't have to buy it if you don't want to, because I'm giving it away for
free. In fact, I'm giving away three different eBooks. The only thing required on your part is to decide which one you want, mention it on this blog post, then email me the info, and I'll send you the file. :-)
Here are the books to choose from:

Book description:
Jacob
Clark’s new abilities are a blessing and a curse. He’s a hero for
returning the magical Key of Kilenya to its rightful owners, but at
school he's starting to get noticed for something other than his
basketball skills. And the attention is freaking him out.
Balancing
both worlds is tricky enough, but Jacob has tasked himself with saving
Aloren who’s trapped in Maivoryl City by the Ember Gods. He doesn't want
to wait for the potion that will protect his team from the corrosive
influence of the Lorkon, but the desire to prove himself to the high
school basketball coach conflicts with his plans to rescue her.
Feeling
pulled by both sides, Jacob must walk a tightrope of warring worlds
with lives on the line. Lives that will be lost if he doesn’t figure out
how to complete his quest and balance his abilities. Fast.

Andrea Pearson, author of the Kilenya Series, Kilenya Romances, and Katon University series, lives with her husband and daughter in a small valley framed with hills. She is Executive Director of the Indie Author Hub group and creator of the writing application, Writer’s Progress Bar. She is an editor for the website Gather.com.
Andrea spends as much time with her husband and daughter as possible. Favorite activities include painting, watching movies, collecting and listening to music, and discussing books and authors.
Her mother says they can't possibly be related because Andrea isn't in love with chocolate and tomatoes, though she’ll eat either. (But not together.) She would much rather snack on toasted English muffins with lots of butter or nearly anything with cheese.
