Update: Thanks to everyone who downloaded The Quests of Underice while it was free, the book made it into the top 20 children’s fantasy Kindle books on Amazon! I’m happy to have all of these new readers and have reduced the price of The Quests of Underice ebook to $2.99.
The Quests of Underice ebook is free from December 23 to December 26, 2012. If you have an iPad, iPhone, Android phone or tablet, PC, Mac, web browser or Kindle, you can download the Kindle book from Amazon for free and read it on your device! (Here’s a page with all of Amazon’s Kindle reading software.)
What is The Quests of Underice? It is the first three books in the 11 Quests series of children’s fantasy books (targeting ages 8-12, but the book has been well-received by both younger and older…) Here’s the description from Amazon:
In this children’s fantasy series (in which the peril is kept mild, but the adventure is fast paced and exciting), Carla and her best friend James head off to solve Carla’s quest. They find themselves in Underice, a world hidden away for a thousand years, where they journey northward to discover that trouble is brewing. What can two ordinary 11 year olds do? What more can they do with the help of a fairy and a dragon?
And here’s the back cover text from the paperback book:
Eleven-year-old Carla and her friend James chased a thieving gnome… all the way into the hidden land of Underice. There, they discovered magical creatures they never knew existed and a mysterious gathering in the north of Underice.
Carla’s mother explained that Carla had an “11 Quest” to solve: a special quest for some 11-year-olds. Can Carla and James unravel her 11 Quest? Luckily, they don’t need to adventure alone as they are joined by two Underice natives that also happen to be on their own 11 Quests.
This fast paced adventure has been delighting readers on both sides of the Atlantic, and now the first three books are together in this one volume.
The Quests of Underice tells a complete story, but I will be starting on the second trilogy soon. I’m planning to post book four chapter-by-chapter on this site as I write it!
Note: the ebook is scheduled to be free on Amazon starting on December 23rd, 2012. The exact timing of this depends on Amazon’s system and your time zone.
