If you're a fan of the Grimoire Saga (like I am!),
you are going to love this new spin-off series. The Ourean Chronicles details
events in the lives of three characters we've already met in the Grimoire Saga,
and today I'm helping the author, S. M. Boyce, reveal her covers.
Stone, Cedric, and Deidre are all fascinating
characters in the Grimoire Saga, and I can't wait to see them in their own
stories. Get ready for some exciting new perspectives on this magical world.
These books have a tentative release date of winter 2015. For now, check out
the covers and add them to your Goodreads list!
Here's a little hello
from Boyce, explaining the concept for the Ourean Chronicles and
a sneak peek of how they'll be released:
The Misanthrope: Stone's Story
(Ourean Chronicles #1)
Before Stone trained Kara
Magari or taught the First Vagabond to master the Blood loyalty, he was nothing
more than a slave boy named Terric.
Terric is a curious loner hellbent on reading his
master's forbidden books. When one heist goes wrong, Terric abandons his old
life and runs for freedom—only to fall prey to a ruthless man named
Niccoli.
Niccoli is an isen—a creature of
magic from the hidden world of Ourea—and he awakens within Terric an
unimaginable gift. But this gift comes with a catch. Suddenly in control
of newfound power he is forbidden to freely use, Terric realizes too
late he simply traded one master for another.
In Ourea, a world dominated by
the gifted, few isen dare defy their masters. Until now.

The First Vagabond: Cedric's
Story
(Ourean Chronicles #2)
Ourean legends of the First Vagabond
have survived a thousand years, blossoming in pubs and alleys even as the great
Bloods of Ourea tried to squelch his name. But the myths glorify the deeds and
forget the man he was—Cedric, a boy from a small Hillsidian farming
village.
As a young man, Cedric discovers a
terrifying defect in his nature. He has no Blood loyalty, which means he can defy
his king—something that has never happened in recorded history. But what
begins as a flaw evolves into a strength. Citizens begin to listen to
Cedric, and he discovers that if he leads, others will follow.
What begins as a bid for change in a
world controlled by tradition becomes a mudslide as Cedric's cause falls apart
at the seams. And after a betrayal that destroys his faith in the only family
he's ever known, Cedric is forced to decide between those he leads and
those he loves.

The Demon: Deidre's Story
(Ourean Chronicles #3)
Deidre wasn't always an
isen, but she has always been hated.
In 1814, Deidre is a Southern Belle, born to wealth and a
father who loathes her. Townsfolk call her beautiful and clever. A young
man named Michael calls her the love of his life. But her father calls her
a demon.
Deidre has lived her life with blackouts—moments of evil she
can't control or remember. She hates herself enough as it is, but her life
snowballs out of control when a foreigners named Niccoli comes to town. In one
heartbreaking night, she loses everything—including Michael. And it's Niccoli's
fault.
That night, Deidre becomes immortal.
Powerful. Vengeful. But her grief festers.
As she learns the truth about her
blackouts, she begins to lose the last threads of who she was. And as long as
she kills Niccoli for taking Michael from her, she's okay with that.
