JULY Book of the Month :: Naermyth by Karen Francisco

Postby jemchan_n » July 5th, 2013, 3:14 pm

Tis now official! Congratulations to ms. Laila who got what she wanted. :D

Here's the synopsis


The world ended. It was not because of a comet, prophecy, natural disaster or whatever garbage foretold on the internet, but because every myth ever written turned out to be an account of historical fact. These monsters we’ve read about as children waged a war that lead to the human race’s downfall. And the unlucky who survived are hunted down or, worse, tortured.

In these dark times, people could only turn to the Shepherd for help. I am one such Shepherd and I thought my only task was to protect the few humans who still thrived on this desolate world. But when I rescued Dorian from Dwende captivity, I discovered that not only is he the most dangerous thing to have around, but he could be our one hope for redemption. I now find myself protecting a born killer, but in doing so, I’m turning my back on everything human.

I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I did. :mrgreen: Let's have fun discussing the book as well. :geek:

No there's a small shop in Waltermart I think that has NBS all over and they said they were tied up to National Book Store but they're not National Book Store and I was like whuut??? Anyway were steering away from the book and I'm sorry bout' that I tend to lead a conversation down a random path.

So about the book is it a long read or just one of those Pocket Books that you could literally put inside you back pocket

Best if you drop by National or any other book store to know if it qualifies as a long read for you.
