Hey! Looks like I get to start this year with lovely prize(s)!! Thank you to Tiffanie of Mostly YA Lit for hosting the December New Release Giveaway Hop! which made it possible for me to win Falling Kingdoms by Morgan Rhodes!

Couldn't wait to find it in my mail!! This wait is worth another Mr. Mailman feature!

About Mr. Mailman:
Mr. Mailman is a kind of "blog meme" started by Juju over at Tales Of Whimsy to feature books which one is anxiously waiting to arrive in the mail!


Falling Kingdoms by Morgan Rhodes
Book 1 of the Falling Kingdoms series
Genre: high fantasy

About Falling Kingdoms:
In a land where magic has been forgotten but peace has reigned for centuries, a deadly unrest is simmering. Three kingdoms grapple for power--brutally transforming their subjects' lives in the process. Amidst betrayals, bargains, and battles, four young people find their fates forever intertwined:

Cleo: A princess raised in luxury must embark on a rough and treacherous journey into enemy territory in search of a magic long thought extinct.

Jonas: Enraged at injustice, a rebel lashes out against the forces of oppression that have kept his country impoverished--and finds himself the leader of a people's revolution centuries in the making.

Lucia: A girl adopted at birth into a royal family discovers the truth about her past--and the supernatural legacy she is destined to wield.

Magnus: Bred for aggression and trained to conquer, a firstborn son begins to realize that the heart can be more lethal than the sword...

The only outcome that's certain is that kingdoms will fall. Who will emerge triumphant when all they know has collapsed?
