Today, I’m going to play the evil master of fate and not do a Fantasy Friday post.

Mwahahahaha

Be consoled. It’s not that terrible. Here’s a piece of Turkish Delight to calm you down. Really, what I’m doing instead is a fun shift from what I usually post.

The cover reveal for the debut novel of a friend of mine.

I met Amy at a writer’s conference last year. During a zombie Nerf war. If you think that sounds epic, you’re right. Over thirty kids and adults running around several rooms and hallways of a university building, madly firing Nerf darts.

But I’m getting off topic.

The book in question is Rebirth. Let the drums beat, the trumpets sound. Behold, the cover!

Pretty sweet, I’d say. Gives you a feel of what to expect in the story while offering tantalizing details to draw you in. What’s the story about, you ask?

Back Cover Copy:

Liz Brantley has a gift she wants to return.

Able to see and fight demonic forces, she has spent her life alone, battling the minions of hell bent on her destruction, running from the God who gave her this curse. The demon Markus, drawn to her abilities, unleashes havoc on her hometown and pulls Liz further into the throes of battle.

She’s desperate for a normal life.

When she meets a mysterious man who seems unaware of the mystical realm that haunts her, the life she’s always wanted flits within reach. But her slice of normal slips from her grasp when an old flame, Ryland Vaughn, reappears with secrets of his own. Secrets that will alter her destiny.

Torn between two worlds, Liz is caught in an ancient war between good and evil.

And she isn’t sure which side to choose.
