Chasing Ravens
Book # 1
By- Jessica E. Paige
Genre- YA Fairy Tale/Folklore
 
Orphaned at a young age, 15-year old Anouk’s punishment for being too outspoken is an arranged marriage worse than any she could imagine. Fleeing on horseback, yet without a sense of where to turn, she stumbles upon an idyllic village where she finds safe haven. Could this be home?
 
Ultimately, it will lead her to confront the very face of death, yet amidst the danger and darkness, she meets a handsome woodsman and finds a glowing blue flower with power beyond her wildest dreams.
 
Inspired by Russian fairy tales and steeped in ancient folklore, Paige’s novel is ripe with fantasy, love, and courage.
 
   
EXCERPT

Anouk retrieved her bow from her room and headed with Eva to an empty field beyond the stables, gathering sticks as they walked. Laying the branches on the ground, they formed several squares, each one at a different distance. Anouk lifted her bow, focused her aim inside one of the targets, and loosed her arrow. It flew beautifully, humming as it sailed, and Anouk’s heart sang right along with it.
