Marked By Books: Valkyrie Blitz: Guest Post & TWO GIVEAWAYS!!!

Look at who's back! Do you remember when I hosted the cover reveals for this series and completely flipped out because of how good the cover art is? Just look at it!

Dead Radiance by T.G. Ayer

Bryn Halbrook had always seen the glow. But it is only when her best friend dies that she discovers the meaning of those beautiful golden auras — Death. Alone, lost in the foster system, she struggles to understand who she is and why she was cursed with the ability to see the soon-to-be-dead.

The new foster kid, Aidan, isn’t helping any. Mr. Perfect seems to fit in no matter what, making her feel even more pathetic. But when his affections turn to her, Bryn finds him hard to resist. Impossible actually. A mystery himself, Aidan disappears, leaving behind a broken heart and a mysterious book that suggests Bryn might not be entirely human.

Bryn stands at the threshold of a journey of discovery. Will destiny help her find herself, find her purpose and her place in a world in which she’d never belonged?

Dead Embers by T.G. Ayer

Valkyrie-in-training Bryn Halbrook just can't catch a break. With her boyfriend stuck in Hel and the taunting laughter of Loki still ringing in her ears, she struggles to concentrate on her training and duties in Odin's realm. The last thing she expects or wants is more adventure—but then treachery, a shocking abduction and a chilling discovery send her forth on another perilous, globe-hopping mission.

As the ultimate battle, Ragnarok, draws closer, it's a race against time for Bryn, Fenrir and their team to discover who kidnapped her foster brother from the halls of Asgard and what's causing the mysterious deaths of so many of Odin's chosen warriors.

In the exciting sequel to DEAD RADIANCE, Bryn encounters dwarfs and dragons, new friends and old foes—but worst enemy of all may be the person she trusts most!

Dead Chaos by T.G. Ayer

Valkyrie Bryn Halbrook is faced with her worst nightmare. Bryn struggles to face the truth about Aidan, to understand her feelings, but even as her relationship with Aidan begins to crumble, she refuses to break her promise to help him find his mother and sister.

The Frost Giants have brought Ragnarok to Asgard's door and Bryn and her team must find Heimdall and his special horn before they can summon the gods to fight for Odin. Can Bryn fight what Fate has foretold?

In the exciting follow-up to Dead Embers, the nine realms are poised on the brink of the great war of Ragnarok- the end of the world as we know it—but will Bryn be able to make the ultimate sacrifice to save the world?

I have been a writer from the time I was old enough to recognise that reading was a doorway into my imagination. Poetry was my first foray into the art of the written word. Books were my best friends, my escape, my haven. I am essentially a recluse but this part of my personality is impossible to practise given I have two teenage daughters, who are actually my friends, my tea-makers, my confidantes... I am blessed with a husband who has left me for golf. It's a fair trade as I have left him for writing. We are both passionate supporters of each others loves - it works wonderfully...

My heart is currently broken in two. One half resides in South Africa where my old roots still remain, and my heart still longs for the endless beaches and the smell of moist soil after a summer downpour. My love for Ma Afrika will never fade. The other half of me has been transplanted to the Land of the Long White Cloud. The land of the Taniwha, beautiful Maraes, and volcanoes. The land of green, pure beauty that truly inspires. And because I am so torn between these two lands - I shall forever remain crosseyed.

Have you ever had a super-sized crush on a not-so-human dude? Of course you have! This is my list of favourites.

Tee’s secret: I have to confess a super crush on Angel, to the point of creating my own little fan fiction dream world where I’d kick Buffy’s ass for letting Angel go – must be the writer in me ;)

Interesting choices. I, unfortunately, have never seen either Buffy the Vampire Slayer or Supernatural, though I've been told they're both awesome. The superhero choices surprised me, though. Why did you choose them? Personally, my favorites are Spider-Man and The Hulk (really, who can't love Bruce?), but that's just me.
