Give a listen to the latest Shelf Addiction author feature! On today's podcast episode Shayne Leighton  and I will be discussing the evolution of a series character as and she'll introduce us to her series, Of Light and Darkness.

​Author Bio

Picture
With over a decade of experience in the entertainment and publishing industries, Shayne Leighton is a creative professional with edge and quirkiness. Her debut novel, Of Light and Darkness hit Amazon's coveted Top 100 overall bestsellers list once during the fall of 2015, and again in the summer of 2016, reaching the #4 spot. Having a background in film science, Shayne has produced book trailers and marketing materials for New York Times bestselling authors and major publishers such as Cynthia Leitich Smith (Tantalize, Candlewick Press), Alex Flinn (Towering, Harper Teen), and Kimberley Griffiths Little (When The Butterflies Came, Scholastic Press). She strives to be the Guillermo del Toro of the publishing industry, knowing what works visually and creatively to make stories a stunning experience that is visual, just as it is intellectual. She spends most of her time working on things that excite her, drinking coffee, traveling to the Czech Republic where she always finds new inspiration, and discovering hole-in-the-wall bookstores and coffee shops on her random adventures. Shayne is a Libra and a Ravenclaw. Her favorite book is The Night Circus (though soon it may be Six of Crows). Her wand is made out of Hazel wood with a Unicorn hair core 12 1/4" long and reasonably supple flexibility. Her patronus is a robin.

Featured Book | ​Of Light and Darkness (Of Light and Darkness #1)

PictureClick to purchase!
​A fiercely imaginative and multilayered contemporary fantasy about a girl caught between two societies, two sides, and two destinies. 

Charlotte Ruzikova knows no other home than the one nestled deep in the woods of Eastern Europe, where witches draw spells of enchantment, shifters throw tea parties, and elves are the closest in kin. Raised by a vampire in a secret society of legendary beings, Charlotte finds that she is the human freak in her world of magic and wonder. When she stands before an army of impossible obstacles, the likelihood of survival in this modern fairy tale is slim, resulting in a war between light and darkness.

As genocide and war threaten her life and her home, Charlotte will not allow her one true love to be destroyed. Fighting for her adopted coven of rogue monsters, she will do whatever it takes to save them, and she'll do it before the sun comes up and light takes over forever!

An age-cold conflict: dark against light. But which is good and which is evil?
