Artworks, Reviews and Quotes

I love the artworks my readers do of the characters or events from my books. From our beloved blue-haired Arkarian in The Guardians of Time Series, Ethan and Rochelle from the same series to the angels Nathaneal, Gabriel and Michael in The Avena Series, and Kate and Jarrod from Old Magic. There’s no winner. It’s not a competition, but I decided to exhibit these drawings, artworks, and a few reviews, because I love each one and it gives me a chance to thank the creators. If one of these is yours and I haven’t identified you properly, please write to me. If you don’t see your artwork here, feel free to email it to me, or private message me through Facebook or Instagram. I’d love to see it. I’d love to put it up on my website. Thank you.

The Guardians of Time New Covers and News

The new editions of The Guardians of Time Series, Books I, II, III and IV, with their exciting new Young Adult Fantasy covers are all now available from online bookstores.

The new covers for the Guardians of Time Series.

The Named, The Dark, The Key and The Shadow are available in Paperback or E-book from Amazon.com or in English wherever Amazon has a store, which include the UK, Spain, Italy, Germany, Australia, Japan, and many other countries. More bookstore are selling the titles as distribution expands.

If you know of any other stores currently selling the new edition, please write to me and let me know so we can let others know, or leave a website link in the comments below. Thank you. I am no longer selling the first “Shadow” cover to avoid confusion and allow the new cover to start appearing on the online bookstore sites. It all takes time.

News:
For Turkey readers, I am now with an agency in Turkey who are acting on my behalf to find a publisher willing to take on the translation and publication not only of The Shadow, the new fourth book of the series, but to reprint the entire series with all new matching covers. Fingers crossed she is able to find us a Turkish publisher soon.

I hope to find other international agencies in other countries willing to do the same. If you have links to any, for example, in Spain or Germany or Poland, please drop me a line, leave a comment or email me at: marianne.curley7@gmail.com.

The Named, The Dark, The Key and The Shadow, the four books of the Guardians of Time Series in their new matching covers.

What’s Next?

And finally, for those of you asking what I’m doing next: I’m in the editing phase of my new book, a YA Paranormal Fiction. There is lots to know about this new book, but that’s all I can tell you for now except that I’m loving writing it, that it’s a stand alone, and I can’t wait to shop it around for a publisher. Stay tuned because more information is coming soon.

Thanks for reading. Take care everyone.

The Named is out, The Dark is Coming Soon
The Named is now released
The Guardians of Time Series
The Named in paperback and e-book are both now available from Amazon, with other stores to come on board in the days ahead. The next new edition from The Guardians of Time Series to be released will be The Dark. Watch for my notifications, because it will not be long. 
So far the covers have received a lot of love. Thank you to everyone who let me know what they think of them. I appreciate your efforts. Thank you also to those sharing the Facebook and Instagram posts around. Very kind of you all. Please keep doing so while the covers continue to be released.  
I can’t wait to have all four new editions on my bookshelf alongside the older editions. These covers are quite different to what has come before. They are focused more on the paranormal fantasy and time travel aspect. A different take that appealed to me. Thank you to the designer, Aliessa at AC Graphics.

ATTENTION BLOGGERS AND REVIEWERS

THE GUARDIANS OF TIME SERIES, BOOK IV

The Shadow
Marianne Curley

The battle is over. The war is won. The prophecy complete.

But life can’t just pick up where it left off for Ethan. Struggling to cope with the death of his soulmate, at odds with his friends in the Guard, he finds himself adrift, jumping at shadows and sensing someone who can’t possibly be there.

Blaming herself for Lathenia’s death, Jesilla swears to avenge her mother and fulfil her final plans. But she hadn’t planned to fall in love. And that leaves her with an impossible choice – should she follow her heart, or the parental strings of a Goddess short on praise but high on expectation that continues to pull on her from the grave?

The Guard and the Order battle through the past and into an impossible future where darkness lurks at every step.

Released on March 10, 2018, the long-awaited fourth book in The Guardians of Time Series is now available on NetGalley for interested Bloggers to review. Just click on The Shadow cover below for a direct link, and please leave an honest review.

Two years in the planning and twelve in the making, Marianne Curley intended to write the fourth book to The Guardians of Time Series immediately after the release of the The Key in 2004, but that was the same year Marianne was diagnosed with Myelofibrosis, bone marrow cancer, and had to take time off to have a stem-cell, bone marrow transplant. It was eight years before Marianne returned to the publishing world with a new trilogy, inspired by her health experience called The Avena Series. Today, Marianne is fourteen years cancer free, and her new book, The Shadow, fulfils a long-awaited promise to both herself and her readers.

Counting Down – Six Days to the Release of THE SHADOW

FireworksI can’t believe after all this time there are only six days until The Shadow is unleashed on the world. It seems surreal that next weekend, on Saturday, The Shadow will be available for purchase. It could be in your hands in one week’s time. In e-book or paperback, The Shadow will be selling from most bookstores, predominantly Amazon and other online stores in whatever country you happen to live. And all I can say right now is… happy reading everyone. But, wait, there’s more I want to tell you.

 

 NEWSFLASH!!!    NEWSFLASH!!!

For all of you Spanish readers, I have wonderful news. I recently made an arrangement with an awesome Spanish translator who will begin working on translating The Shadow into Spanish beginning this coming April. I will keep you informed of her progress, but all going well, the Spanish translation of Guardians Four, The Shadow, could be available late in 2018 or thereabouts.

I’m still looking for translators in other countries  too, where The Guardians of Time books have become well-loved. Some of these countries include Germany, Turkey, Poland, Finland, Russia and of course the Czech Republic. Drop me a message  if you are a professional translator and native to one of these countries. Email is best for me: marianne.curley7@gmail.com.

Speaking of people I’m looking for, if you are a Blogger  who has also read the Guardians of Time Books 1, 2 and 3, and would like to review The Shadow, you can now go to NetGalley and download an e-book edition in exchange for an honest review. If you have any problems finding The Shadow on NetGalley, email me privately for a direct link.

Plenty more to come in the final days of this countdown, so stay tuned.
