Free (nook/Kindle/iTunes/DRM-free) Destiny of the Light [Australia Fantasy w/Romance]

[ATDrake]

Destiny of the Light by Queensland-resident author Louise Cusack (ISFDB) is the 1st in her Shadow Through Time trilogy of high fantasy/modern world parallel crossover averting-disaster-by-fulfilling-the-prophecy epic quest adventures with romantic elements, free courtesy of publisher Pan Macmillan Australia's Momentum imprint.

This was originally published by Simon & Schuster Australia's Earthlight imprint in 2001, and Momentum are bringing it and the sequels into e-print at a very affordable cost.

Currently free @ B&N (also in the UK), Amazon (not available to Canadians, but free in the UK), Kobo & iTunes (both available to Canadians, and DRM-free at Kobo), and directly from the publisher's webstore (DRM-free ePub/Mobi bundle available worldwide).

NB: If you like this one, the two additional novels you'll need to complete the trilogy are deep-discount regular-priced at just $2.99 AUS suggested retail each (not couponable @ Kobo, at least from a Canadian perspective), according to the Momentum website (where you can purchase them directly at just $1.99 per): Daughter of the Dark & Glimmer in the Maelstrom

And this has been the selected 3rd (non-repeat) free ebook thread of the day.

Because it's always nice to get DRM-free freebies from a major publisher imprint, and also sf/fantasy ones as well, which are Relevant To My Interests®.

And bonus points to Momentum for bringing back into print older stuff that probably has an established fanbase who'd love to see it available again, and at a very affordable discount price point, instead of just concentrating on pushing newbie authors at full price as they might otherwise have chosen to do.

Enjoy!

(ETA: Apparently this is my 6666th post. That's like the Number Of The Beast With Benefits! )

Description
Ennae is a parallel world joined to our own world by the Sacred Pool, a portal that can only be opened by one with the Guardian blood running through their veins. It is through this watery gateway that Khatrene leaves her modern-day life behind forever, drawn into a quest that will take her into the depths of the unknown.

Khatrene must fulfil her destiny as The Light, the woman whose child will unite the four elemental worlds. At each turn are real and imagined enemies who will do everything in their power to prevent her from fulfilling the prophecy, including the ethereal and erotic shadow woman, the enigmatic tattooed man, even her beloved brother Mihale.

Talis, her appointed Guardian, must help her through the dangerous terrain of Ennae, sacrificing everything to ensure her safety in a land where magic prevails and nothing is as it seems.

From an exciting new voice in Australian fantasy fiction comes the first book in the Shadow Through Time trilogy. Beautifully crafted and written, Destiny of the Light combines intrigue, magic and horror to create a reality that is out of this world.
