Silver Dagger Book Tours: Wicked Prince of Mirrors Book Tour & Giveaway – 10/3 to 11/3

Dark fairytales.

A cursed prince you shouldn’t fall for…but will.

Wicked Prince of Mirrors

Wicked Princes Book 1

by Angela J. Ford

Genre: Fantasy Romance, Romantasy

He’s the kingdom’s most dangerous prisoner. She just accidentally helped him escape.

When forbidden magic awakens within Princess Esmira, she knows she must flee—or be executed. Hoping to escape through the palace’s hidden tunnels, she instead discovers a chamber of ancient mirrors. Mist coils. Magic stirs. One touch shatters the glass—and frees Prince Methrin, the Wicked Prince of Mirrors.

Cursed for vanity, bloodshed, and a betrayal that nearly destroyed the realm, Methrin was exiled to the mirrorverse long ago. Now he’s back—immortal, furious, and dangerously compelling. He claims the stories are twisted lies, the crown was stolen and the true monster escaped. Only Esmira’s raw, unstable magic can stop it.

Forced to flee together, bound by forbidden magic, Esmira is pulled into a world of illusions, broken prophecy, and a prince who sees through every mask she wears. As their connection deepens, so do the risks—because the monster Methrin once unleashed still haunts the realm… and it’s hunting again.

Wicked Prince of Mirrors is a complete stand-alone romantasy novel with a “happily ever after.” Perfect for readers who long for forbidden magic, cursed princes, mirror realms steeped in illusion, and slow-burn romantic fantasy.

Wicked Prince of Mirrors is Book One in the Wicked Princes Collection. A series of standalone fantasy romance novels.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“The premise is fantastic, with strong character development and an engaging start that pulled me right in.”

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“This is a great read during spooky season. There’s danger and monsters afoot.”

Silver Dagger Book Tours: Against the Red Sky: Mission X Book Tour & Giveaway – 10/7 to 10/28

Two missions, one conspiracy, zero room for mistakes- or feelings.

Against the Red Sky: Mission X

by Kristen Illarmo

Genre: YA Science Fiction Thriller

Enzo Cruz knows sacrifice. After a failed mission to assassinate the billionaire behind the Mars colony—and the loss of his grandfather—he’s ready for redemption. His new target? The Mars Ascendance Academy shuttle. His orders: infiltrate, sabotage, escape.

As the youngest operative in Terra Primera, Enzo’s talent with explosives could tip the balance in Earth’s fight for survival. But inside the Academy, nothing goes to plan—especially when Maddie Westing enters the picture.

Maddie has dreamed of joining her mother on Mars since she was ten. Now she has her shot: one of thirty elite students in the Academy’s inaugural class. But being the niece of the colony’s powerful founder comes with strings—and shadows.

When Enzo’s mission collides with Maddie’s quest for truth, both teens are thrust into a conspiracy that threatens Earth and Mars alike. Loyalties will be tested. Secrets will be exposed. And the greatest danger may not come from the skies—it may lie in their hearts.

In this heart-pounding YA thriller, survival means risking everything—including the people you thought you hated most.

For fans of The Hunger GamesRed Rising, and Aurora RisingAgainst the Red Sky delivers explosive tension, star-crossed loyalty, and a high-stakes rebellion that could destroy two worlds.

What readers are saying:

“This YA novel is one long dopamine hit, an insightful saga with crush-worthy protagonists. Enzo, pulled between his ecoterrorism world and a gnawing realization that there may be flaws to his organization’s methods, is a vibrant, well-executed character. Maddie’s journey parallels his in many ways, and her resolve, spirit, and appealing energy make her equally entertaining. Their two paths collide, and Illarmo delivers a twisty examination of greed, loyalty, and the dark motives that drive people when pushed to their limits.” Rated 10 out of 10.

-The BookLifePrize

“This is one of the best books I’ve read this year and I have read over a hundred so far! This is a nail biting, page turning masterpiece that will completely have you mesmerized and under its spell by the first few chapters!” ARC reviewer

“Great, fast-paced fun story with lots of twists and turns
that kept me turning the pages. It has elements of academy, romance, scifi, and thriller that kept me up late reading.” ARC reviewer

Silver Dagger Book Tours: The Monsters Among Us Book Tour & Giveaway – 10/4 to 11/4

A viscerally cinematic and genre-defying fantasy/horror novel.

The Monsters Among Us

The Abyss Borne Gods Book 1

by Kent Priore

Genre: Dark Fantasy, Horror

“Kent Priore writes like a natural about the supernatural, and The Monsters Among Us is a marvelously dark and true novel. American fiction has found a terrific new voice.”
—Joseph O’Neill, PEN/Faulkner Award-Winning Author of Netherland

Seth’s life until now has been a product of a diabolical, evil Truman Show, his entire upbringing a façade orchestrated for malevolent purposes. After his beloved dies, he undergoes a demonic metamorphosis, which causes the world’s fictitious walls to crumble.

As he tries to piece a semblance of his life back together and move on, he meets friends who inspire, but even more harsh truths are revealed, perhaps too difficult to cope with.

The very existence of life and reality is exposed as a machination of grotesque gods. And to defeat them, Seth will have to fill his emptiness, for which there’s only two options…
Bring the world to ruin, or learn to transmute his pain into strength.

Fans of “Jerusalem” by Alan Moore, “The Bell Jar” by Sylvia Plath, or “The Master and Margarita” by Mikhail Bulgakovor will enjoy “The Monsters Among Us.”

“I was intrigued from the first sentence, determined to spend the night speed-reading so I didn’t have to remain in suspense any longer.”
-Ella Dupuie, author of Fractures of the Fallen

“Supernatural storytelling at its best, this vivid cinematic novel takes the reader on an imaginative journey through what could be considered end of days. The Monster’s Among Us is a masterful creation and a must read—even for those who aren’t fans of fantasy/horror.”
—Joni Marie Iraci MFA author of Vatican Daughter

 

Amazon * Apple * B&N * Google * Kobo * Smashwords * Books2Read * Bookbub * Goodreads

Graduated from Bard College with a BA in the Written Arts, Kent Priore is an author of dark literature, genre-blending epics and vignettes, where dark romanticism meets modern psychology for a macabre but hopeful depiction of inner struggle and the human ability to endure, and perhaps even prevail. He has a fascination with humanity and is one of the few to believe that despite our many weaknesses, we are far stronger than we often think. He wishes to show that strength to those darker individuals, burdened by lonesomeness, poor mental health, and other forces perceived to be out of their control, as well as show them that all is not lost.

The Discovery of Magic

The Intrigue of Magic Book 1

A world ruled by magic. A palace full of secrets. A girl who refuses to back down.

Seventeen-year-old Alice Harper had her future mapped out—win an archery scholarship, protect her friends, and stay in control. But when a portal hurls her into a kingdom where magic rules and obedience means survival, she lands in a palace gripped by fear—and under the eye of the most powerful man in the realm.

The Royal Mage doesn’t just control the court—he controls people. With power, with fear, with enchantments no one dares resist. And for reasons Alice can’t explain, he’s taken a disturbing interest in her.

The only person who seems to want to help is the prince. He’s charming, clever—and very possibly lying. Caught between dangerous truths and beautiful deceits, Alice must decide who to trust before her friends are lost forever.

She’s not afraid of a fight. But in a world where magic is control, and trust is the most dangerous choice of all, surviving will take more than arrows—it will take everything she’s got.

The Discovery of Magic is the thrilling first book in The Intrigue of Magic, a YA epic fantasy series perfect for fans of court intrigue, character-driven fantasy, and bold heroines who don’t just survive—they fight for each other.
