BOOK OF THE DAY: The Wizard and the Wood by Becca Price

by Becca Price
(Click for UK, Australia, Canada or India purchase)




BOOK DESCRIPTION
"I'm dying." Only a special kind of wizard could hear the cry that was carried by the whispery winds. Only a special kind of wizard could answer it.

He followed the cry to the Wide Wild Wood, a place that should have been filled with magic and wonder. But the dryad, the guardian of the Wide Wild Wood, was gone. Without its Guardian, The Wood had sunk into sadness. Its waters sat dark and stagnate, its creatures hid, its plants grew unhealthy. Not even a very special wizard could dispel the sadness by himself. But if the wildfolk came to his aid, he might just have a chance.
 

AUTHOR BIO

 
 
 
 
Becca Price lives in a small town in Southeastern Michigan with her husband, 2 children, and 3 cats on 10 acres of weeds, swamp, and trees. She started writing fairy tales when her children were young, because she didn't like a lot of the books that were available at that time. Since she was a technical writer then, it was second nature to write down the stories. The stories stayed on her computer for quite awhile, shared only with a few friends, until the self-publishing revolution at Amazon hit. She published her first collection, Dragons and Dreams just for the heck of it, not expecting anything to come of it. A fan wrote her about one of the stories in that collection, and the second collection, Fairies and Fireflies, was born. After that, the stories just kept coming.
