What is The Dreamer and the Marked?

In the wake of her Mam’s death, Krystal Monarain has turned to escapism, throwing herself into the fantastic stories she was told as a child and the strange, recurring dreams she has at night. But she never quite believed her Mam’s tales that her birth mother wasn’t human—That is until Draqa, a stranger from one of her dreams, appears in her life and tells her she’s part fae. So she does the unthinkable and risks following him into Arai, the realm where the fae have lived unbothered for hundreds of years. For Draqa, however, Krystal’s arrival in his world could mean his execution, and he must do everything he can to get her off his hands before they’re caught.

Meanwhile, unrest is growing between the fae and those they deem a threat to the safety of their realm, and when someone from Draqa's past comes to him seeking aid, he and Krystal may have no choice but to get involved.

The Dreamer and the Marked is a dark portal fantasy novel I started writing 10 years ago. It is the first in a series that explores desiderium, escapism, redemption, and the grey morality of politically forcing change in a society set in its ways. There's magic, fae folk, and vivid characters and cultures all set within an expansive world--perfect for fans of books like Inkheart and Narnia but with an adult spin.

The characters, Arai, and the first three chapters of the book can all be explored in further detail at airicfenn.com

 

 

"A wall of light nearly blinded her on the other side. She shielded her eyes from it until they adjusted, and then her mouth fell open at the sight..."

About the Author

I'm an author and illustrator from the rocky mountains, and when I'm not writing I'm likely dabbling in some other creative endeavor. The Dreamer and the Marked is my debut novel and was born out of my love for worldbuilding.  

So What Do You Get?

Everything to get The Dreamer and the Marked into the hands of readers has been completed and paid for, so no matter what it will be published! The goal of this campaign is to provide preorders with some extra goodies and at a price that you wouldn't get if you bought them from Amazon or Barnes and Noble. Think of it as a way of saying thank you for your support!

There are 3 options available for preorder:

Signed Paperback

A signed paperback of the book that includes a bookmark.

Signed Hardback

A signed hardback of the book that includes the bookmark and 4 vinyl character stickers. 

Signed Hardback and Paperback Bundle

A limited quantity of bundles are also available! These include both the paperback and hardback, the bookmark, an extra set of stickers (for a friend), and an exclusive PDF dictionary of all currently existing words in Yrlun (the main language featured in the book), and you'll be periodically emailed with updated versions of the dictionary as it grows.

Why Preorder?

By preordering, you help me grow my reach as an author and get The Dreamer and the Marked seen and read by more readers. Additionally, by preordering here you receive the book(s) and goodies for a lower price than if you preorder elsewhere (i.e. B&N, Amazon).

Other Ways You Can Help

If you can't preorder, you can still do your part by spreading the word! Share this campaign with your fantasy-loving friends and family, or your local book gremlin!
