Author Feature | Q&A with Rachel Caine & Giveaway

Hey friends,

I have an interview that I'm very excited to share with you all today. I was able to provide interview questions to NYT Bestselling author Rachel Caine! She shares with us Ink & Bone, the first installment of her new series, The Great Library. If you haven't already guessed, Ink & Bone is a young adult series with a fantasy storyline that seems to cross a bit into historical fiction. This title is a book about books, and as a book lover, that's something that I always enjoy. If you're a fan of her previous young adult fantasy series, I'm sure you'll want to learn more about this one.

Ink & Bone goes on sale tomorrow, Tuesday, July 7th. Be sure to pick up your copy.

About The Book

Ruthless and supremely powerful, the Great Library is now a presence in every major city, governing the flow of knowledge to the masses. Alchemy allows the Library to deliver the content of the greatest works of history instantly—but the personal ownership of books is expressly forbidden.

Jess Brightwell believes in the value of the Library, but the majority of his knowledge comes from illegal books obtained by his family, who are involved in the thriving black market. Jess has been sent to be his family’s spy, but his loyalties are tested in the final months of his training to enter the Library’s service.

When he inadvertently commits heresy by creating a device that could change the world, Jess discovers that those who control the Great Library believe that knowledge is more valuable than any human life—and soon both heretics and books will burn.…

Weather Wardens! Those were my first books by her. My second favorite (but very close) Revivalist :) I feel like the minority in that Morganville is my 3rd in line but hey I love them all :)

I absolutely love Rachel Caine. My favorite series is the Morganville vampire series, but I've also read the Weather Wardens and that was amazing as well. I love how she creates strong female characters that aren't just tough, they're smart too. It's fantastic. I also love all the science she puts in her stories. So cool.

I haven't read any of Rachel Canie's books yet, but Ink and Bone sounds great! Everyone who loves the written word understands just how powerful it can be, and I think that reading a story where that idea is the center of a world would be very interesting to read about.
Thanks so much for the chance to win!
