Dead
Radiance (Valkyrie Series #1) by T.G. Ayer (YA Paranormal)
BLURB:
EXCERPT:
"That day I knew for sure. I'd lost control of my tears then. They
fell in huge, mocking drops. I stared at Joshua through those bitter tears, my
heart missing beats as I tried to remember to breathe. I finally knew what the
glow meant. I was a freak and Joshua was going to die." Bryn Halbrook had
always seen the glow. But it is only when her best friend dies that she
discovers the meaning of those beautiful golden auras - Death. Alone, lost in
the foster system, she struggles to understand who she is and why she was
cursed with the ability to see the soon-to-be-dead. The new foster kid, Aidan,
isn't helping any. Mr. Perfect seems to fit in no matter what, making her feel
even more pathetic. But when his affections turn to her, Bryn finds him hard to
resist. Impossible actually. A mystery himself, Aidan disappears, leaving
behind a broken heart and a mysterious book that suggests Bryn might not be
entirely human. Bryn stands at the threshold of a journey of discovery. Will
destiny help her find herself, find her purpose and her place in a world in
which she'd never belonged?
BIO:
I have been a writer from the time I was old enough to recognize that
reading was a doorway into my imagination. Poetry was my first foray into the
art of the written word. Books were my best friends, my escape, my haven. I am
essentially a recluse but this part of my personality is impossible to practice
given I have two teenage daughters, who are actually my friends, my tea-makers,
my confidantes… I am blessed with a husband who has left me for golf. It’s a
fair trade as I have left him for writing. We are both passionate supporters of
each other's loves – it works wonderfully…
My heart is currently broken in two. One half resides in South Africa
where my old roots still remain, and my heart still longs for the endless
beaches and the smell of moist soil after a summer downpour. My love for Ma
Afrika will never fade. The other half of me has been transplanted to the Land
of the Long White Cloud. The land of the Taniwha, beautiful Maraes, and
volcanoes. The land of green, pure beauty that truly inspires. And because I am
so torn between these two lands – I shall forever remain cross-eyed.

Book Review:
I laughed, I cried, I wanted to
reach in and slap people, I wanted to hug poor Bryn and bring her home (my
response to all injured kiddos). This
book has it all including some fabulous romance and a little green eyes
monster.
A wonderful weaving of modern day
and ancient Norse mythology, this story is charming. It is definitely recommended for anyone who
enjoys Norse mythology, but also is just a good overall read. I learned a lot about the Norse myths that I
didn’t know (or at least what this author included as being part of Norse
mythology). I am quite versed in Greek
mythology, but not as much with Norse mythology. This was a fun way to learn more.
I highly recommend this book. I give it 4 out of 5 clouds. A good read!
