This book still needs reviewers via #NetGalley or #BookSirens or #ReedsyDiscovery or #BookSprout or direct through me (only the last option requires you to fill out a simple Google Form so I can track who I email copies to).
Links in blog post! Help appreciated!
I'm not picky about who applies via NetGalley, either. So far, 25 Requests, 25 Acceptances.

Two lives, the legacies of grand stories, are at the forefront of this tale.Frustrated with living in the shadow of a long-dead hero, Derek flees to infamous ruins and begs his ancestors for a sign. The next day, he is summoned to serve as the personal guard of his family's greatest enemy. The ensuing journey leads him through storied places, the depths of loneliness, and a growing dread over what awaits at his destination.A reserved and bookish princess unexpectedly finds herself on the throne yet under suspicion. Chandra hardly has time to prepare or to grieve before facing her duties. Aided by a trustworthy few, she must identify and defeat the culprits before the next plot comes to fruition—one in which Derek is unwittingly key.Cover art by Jenn St-Onge

Forms of payment I would consider in exchange for books:
1. Fiat currency, should be familiar to most.
2. Large rubies and sapphires, and other precious stones. But monsieur, I can't pay rent with these, and how do I make change?
3. Gold bars and bricks, but I have no secure facility to keep them. And how do I make change?
4. Reviews, for a limited time. It seems the most convenient way for both of us! See more information in the quoted message below.
I will say, my long game with the #BookSprout stuff is to have a review team willing to accept ARCs of "The Last Gift-Knight" once I have it ready to review. This time, I would prefer to get that part of the release going on schedule.
So, if for any reason you aren't interested in reading the already released 4 books available there, yet you are interested in the yet-to-be-released title, it's cool to just join the team and wait.

This is a standalone novella about people in homesteads and farming villages who learn that their land is being invaded and their defenders have run away. An ensemble cast settles their differences, works through their feelings about it, and most importantly will work together to resist an approaching battalion however they can. While doing so, they come to a more conscious appreciation of their community and what they value about it; why they might risk themselves instead of giving up, especially when it's not immediately clear how they might win.

Noticing I might have tripped myself out of the gate by setting the review deadline to "7 days" for each BookSprout entry. Oops! How about 60 days instead?
