Rise of a Rector Blog Tour

By -

The final novel in Heather McCorkle’s channeler series, Rise of a Rector, has released! To celebrate, and in the spirit of October, Heather is here to tell us about a scary moment in her life. Take it away Heather!

 For the first part of the story about the day my horse kicked me in the face, stop by YA Book Diva if you haven't read it already, then be sure to come back here for the rest of the story!

 Heather: My one good eye on the white landscape outside, I calmly asked my husband how fast we were going. He said seventy. I told him I was okay, I was conscious, talking, and that most people who are conscious and talking after such a trauma survive. I told him go ahead and slow down because I was fine. He did but then said his vision was going black around the edges. I told him not to worry about me, I was fine, it didn’t even hurt. I told him to take a few slow, deep breathes to open up the tunnel vision that was closing in on him. He did. I kept his up the 25 miles to the hospital, keeping him calm, keeping him driving slower than sixty. The moment we pulled into the ER bay the pain struck me like a sledgehammer and I couldn’t even walk. Weird how I held out long enough to get us there safely….

 Check out Heather’s blog for a new tour stop each day until November 2nd. To thank her fans, and future fans, Heather’s historical fantasy novel (a standalone novel that ties into the channeler series) will be free Friday November 2nd and Saturday November 3rd on Amazon.

Reading level: Young Adult Hardcover: 272 pages Publisher: Little, Brown Books for Young Readers (September 1, 2009) Book summary: The terrifying, nail-biting, and grossly intriguing sequel to The Devouring.  It's been six months since Reggie first discovered and fought against the Vours, malicious and demonic beings that inhabit human bodies on the eve of the Winter Solstice.  The Vours still haunt Reggie, but only in her dreams-until one night, when an unexpected visitor turns her nightmares into reality. My Review: Soulstice was the first book I finished for the new year. Holt has created a gripping, realistic horroriffic fantasy with likable characters, a female heroine we can root for, and a truly evil protagonist. I realized this is the first YA horror series I've read and totally enjoyed. Reggie is back, wondering what the Vours are doing in the quiet time since the incident with Quinn and her rescue of brother Henry six months earlier. The peaceful break do
