I'm posting this for a friend.

Joanne Hall's debut fantasy novel, Hierath, the first in a series of three, has been published by epress-online.


YOu can buy it as an ebook for five dollars
Fictionwise eBooks: Hierath by Joanne Hall

or in print from lulu.
Hierath by Joanne Hall (Book) in Science Fiction & Fantasy

If you live in the Uk or Europe, you can also buy it direct from Joanne herself, and save yourself some postage. She'll also sign it for you.

More details can be found on her website The New Kingdom Homepage - front

and here's a blurb!

In this dramatic fantasy, the world stands on the edge of peace, the first peace for a thousand years. A fragile alliance has been formed between the New Kingdom and Telesia, and they have agreed in principle to set aside their centuries-old quarrel over land and culture. The deal has been forged by the efforts of Alex, the peace-loving newcomer to the throne, but things are about to change.

Alex meets and falls in love with Lydia, a fisher's daughter from the east, to the displeasure of both his family and his friends. His aunt has already arranged for the alliance with Telesia to become a permanent and marital one, and the sudden arrival of Lydia throws all her carefully laid plans into jeopardy.


Then a horrific act of betrayal drives the world once more to the brink of war.

i haven't no! she gave me a copy (not signed, grumble) and im saving it for xmas and being bored at my parents house. when i have read it i will probably add to this thread with my thoughts. at the moment im just spamming away and hoping some people will be curious enough to buy it.
there's more on the website, including an extract from the second book, which is odd to me (i will suggest she adds one from the first as well!)
