We want to offer a huge “Thank you!” to each person who participated in the release of The Final Paladin.

To each of our readers, bloggers, reviewers, cover reveal team, and social media sharers: We couldn’t have done this without you!

Thank you for making T.J. Akers’ release of The Final Paladin memorable.

We especially want to thank each of the bloggers who hosted a stop on our blog tour.

We are thankful for each one of you!

To our readers: Have you read The Final Paladin yet? We would love to know what you think of it. Thank you for taking the time to read our books and support our authors. You’re the best!

Happy reading!

Happy Thanksgiving, L2L2 readers, authors, and team!

The Final Paladin releases today! We couldn’t be happier, and our readers are thrilled.

Why have we gotten such great feedback?

Life for Peg Bowman is rough in the infamous slums of Five Points, New York, but her brother’s murder changes everything.

Thrust into incredible worlds beyond any story she’s ever heard, Peg meets Sir Godfrey, an eleven-hundred-year-old knight from Charlemagne’s court, trainer of Paladins. He reveals to Peg her family’s ancient obligation to protect the Key of Apollyon, a relic of immense power. She is the last descendant of the Paladins and his only hope for keeping it safe.

When Godfrey confides her brother was murdered because of the Key, Peg rejects her calling and demands revenge, a luxury she can ill afford as otherworldly creatures seek her death to claim the Key’s power for themselves.

Can Godfrey and his faithful retinue—Chim the Hobgoblin, Rebecca the Jewish Maven and healer, and Jack the sometimes human and sometimes seven-foot Black Dog—keep her safe and convince her that her calling is worth pursuing? Or will she succumb to the Key’s lure and wield it for revenge?

This story is available now, so snatch it up while you can still get the launch-week discounted price.

And be sure to check out the blog tour for more details about this fabulous new release.

Happy reading!

The Final Paladin’s blog tour begins tomorrow!

To begin, we have both a historical peek into the world of The Final Paladin with a visual post on Liv K. Fisher’s blog, then a review of the book by Gretchen Engel.

Here is the schedule:

And here is a little more about the book itself:

Life for Peg Bowman is rough in the infamous slums of Five Points, New York, but her brother’s murder changes everything.

Thrust into incredible worlds beyond any story she’s ever heard, Peg meets Sir Godfrey, an eleven-hundred-year-old knight from Charlemagne’s court, trainer of Paladins.

Can Godfrey and his faithful retinue—Chim the Hobgoblin, Rebecca the Jewish Maven and healer, and Jack the sometimes human and sometimes seven-foot Black Dog—keep her safe and convince her that her calling is worth pursuing? Or will she succumb to the Key’s lure and wield it for revenge?

Enjoy!

And don’t forget to join us for the Facebook launch party.

Happy reading!

About the Author:

T.J. Akers desires to be a multimillionaire when he grows up and give his wealth to his favorite causes: churches, schools, and animal shelters. Since the millions have been slow in coming, he’s settled for working as a computer technician for a state university and volunteering at his church and local animal shelter. Whenever possible, he indulges his love of writing stories to entertain people, especially younger readers.

Akers holds a Masters of English from Minnesota State University, Mankato, and can often be found roaming the university’s library, especially the children’s and young adult sections. Librarians have always been his heroes.

He lives with his beloved wife of thirty years, his dog, and two cats. The dog is an excellent writing companion, but the cats have proven to be rather critical. Learn more at www.tjakers.com.

Thank you so much! Rebirth’s launch was a smashing success–all because of you.

We especially want to thank each blogger who took the time to read and review Rebirth or to interview Amy Brock McNew for her blog tour.

It was an amazing tour! (Don’t take our word for it; check out all fifteen (15) stops below!)

And thank you everyone who came to Amy’s Facebook and physical launch parties. Ninety-one (91) guests attended Amy’s Facebook Launch Party, and seventeen (17) won prizes. Congratulations to each winner! It looks like next time we’ll need quite a few more prizes. :)

Those who came to Amy’s physical release party at Boondocks Food & Spirits–thank you as well. It was such a whirlwind celebration; so many came to see Amy and have her sign their book!

We cannot wait to hear what you think of Amy’s new release, Rebirth. Comment below and let us know!

Or better yet, leave your review on Goodreads, Amazon, B&N, and/or iBooks! Nothing supports an author more than an honest review.

We can’t say it enough: Thank you for all you have done!

Happy Reading!
