The Labyrinth Challenge and Cover Reveal!

The Labyrinth Challenge and Cover Reveal!

Welcome
to The Labyrinth Challenge! This is a cover reveal event celebrating my
upcoming book, The Labyrinth Wall. What’s the big challenge? It’s to hop around
to all sites participating in the event (site links are listed at the bottom of
this post) and count how many character quotes are from the main character,
Araina. Circle back to Anything Imagined and comment saying how many Araina quotes were posted during
the hop. I will wait to randomly select a winner from the comments on December
23rd at noon (Eastern Standard time). The winner will receive a $15
electronic Starbucks giftcard (just in time for the holidays).

Without
further delay, let’s kick off the book cover reveal and learn more about The
Labyrinth Wall…
The
Labyrinth Wall

power of hope can set her free…

Araina’s isolated teenage life is forever altered when she witnesses a man
emerge through a rippling wall into the dark labyrinth she calls home. As a
result of the stranger’s arrival, Araina’s Creators have unleashed a series of

decide if she will trust potentially deceitful allies in order to reach safety
on the other side of the labyrinth wall.

Excerpt:

(There
is a different excerpt at each site participating in this event)
Thinking about
the creation of the Mahk piques my curiosity. It could be done in some of the
rooms we’ve passed. I wish we could learn more about the process while we’re
inside the castle. After waking up to the world for the first time, the
Creators simply sent me into the labyrinth with no further explanation. What my
body consists of or how my brain is wired, how life sparked within me, I may
never know. It’s possible we could find where our bodies are produced or learn
how they wire our brains, but realistically, we’re already treading in dangerous
territory without digging that deep. We really need to find the mystery man so we can get out of here, or we’ll be
killed. 
Sweat crawls
down my back and on my palms as my nerves threaten to expose my fear. Who knows
what the Creators might do to us for sneaking into the castle. “This was a
stupid idea… It’s never going to work,” I murmur. “Let’s get out of here before
they catch us. We don’t even know where to find the man in white.”
The expression
on his face is more serious than it’s been before.
He looks down
at his sooty boots. “Don’t you want to know how he came through that wall,
where he came from?”
Sighing
heavily, I shrug. “Lead the way.”
“Let’s get him
and get out. It’s time to rethink this game plan. We could spend days wandering this place looking for him, and I bet, by then,
he’ll be dead.”
He’s right. My
brain boils in search of a good solution.
“If you hadn’t
killed both the guards,” I accuse him, “we could have forced information out of
them.”
“If you think
that’s the best way, that’s how we’ll do it.” He takes off away from the
courtyard, motioning for me to follow.
It doesn’t take
long for me to recognize where he’s headed. We passed a bath hall about twenty minutes ago.
“It’ll be
easiest to take someone that’s off duty and unarmed,” he announces.
My lips purse
unintentionally, but he’s right.
“Why don’t you
do the dirty work?” This seems like a good job for him. I’m not eager to see
any naked people.
“I’m way ahead
of ya.” He motions for me to wait in the hallway as he slips inside.
As the mist
flows out into the hall, warm slimy residue forms on my skin. I glance back and
forth down the passageway. The wait for his return feels endless. A good
fifteen minutes pass, but he still doesn’t emerge with a guard.
I’m tapping my
fingers nervously when the one-handed man in black from the banquet rounds the
corner then starts walking toward me. For a minute, I completely panic,
thinking he knows I’m a Mahk. Then I remember I’m in guard attire. I stand
stiff and upright at his approach; like I’ve seen other guards do for
Simul.
Just when it
seems he’s going to walk right past me without a pause, he turns to face me.
