Immortal Circus Blog Tour


I'm so psyched to be representing the Summer Court with Fiktshun as a part of the Immortal Circus Blog Tour! 

Stop by every Wednesday for the next ten weeks for Immortal Circus fun! There will be reviews, guest posts, teasers and of course an incredible giveaway! We're competing with the Winter Court, and whoever has the most comments wins! You can show your support for the Summer Court by entering in the contest here or on Fiktshun's site and leaving us a comment. 

Also, feel free to grab the Summer Court button from the right sidebar and put it on your blog or wherever else you want to show your support!

Greetings mortals,

This week, I thought it wise to begin showcasing the dangerous characters Mab has working for her. It is well known that she often harbors criminals, murderers, outlaws, and other unsavory sorts. 

But I fear that until you understand the full weight of this, you still might be swayed to vote for her court.
In essence, she is using convicts to create an unfair market on the sustenance my court so desperately requires. I will let  you draw the parallels. Today I will give you all my court knows of her star magician, Kingston. 

Name: Kingston ???
Age: ???
Race: Caucasian ???
Traits: Serves as Magician under Queen Mab. Proclivity towards fire and shirtlessness. Not to be trusted under any circumstance.
Crime: Witchcraft and Murder 
Judgement: As decreed in the Oracle Proclamation, all mortal magic-users are direct threats to the safety and sanctity of the Faerie Courts. They are not to be suffered under any circumstance.
Suggested Penalty: Death
Actual Penalty (under Mab's misrule): Stardom

As you can see, Mab has serious undermined the safety of the Courts, not only in her Dream Trade, but with those who run the operation. I highly recommend you reconsider your votes. Do not be swayed by her illusion of lushness and safety. 

Sincerely,
Oberon

About the Book
Publisher: 47 North
Publication Date: December 4, 2012
Format: Kindle eBook

Murdered contortionists aren't exactly what Vivienne signed up for when she ran away to join the circus. But like most things under the big top, nothing is what it seems. With a past she can't quite remember, Vivienne finds that running away forever might not be as appealing as it once sounded - especially not when she realizes the devilishly attractive ringleader Mab is the Faerie Queen of legend...and that she and the rest of the troupe are locked in an age-old rivalry between the otherworldly courts. 

Aided by her friends Kingston - a feisty stage magician whose magic is quickly stealing her heart - and his smart-ass assistant Melody, Vivienne finds herself racing against the clock to discover the culprit behind a series of deaths that should be impossible. However, the answer she seeks might reveal more about her own bloody past - and future - than she bargains for. 

The show's just beginning.

Step right up...

About A.R. Kahler
Most little boys dream of running away to join the circus.
Alex didn't just dream it: he did it. But then, he rarely lets a good dream pass him by.
In the past six years he's toured and trained across America and Europe. He's performed in Amsterdam, taught trapeze in Madrid, studied in Glasgow and even had a stint as assistant to Holly Black and Cassandra Clare in New England. He's constantly on the lookout for new places to explore and new worlds to invent. He's a Sagittarius fueled by full moons and espresso. The way to his heart is a latte and fan art. Just for the record.
THE IMMORTAL CIRCUS is his first New Adult novel, and is being released exclusively through the Amazon Kindle e-Serials program by 47North. It will be available in print and audio when the episodes are complete.
MARTYR the first book in his post-apocalyptic fantasy, will be published by Spencer Hill Press in October 2014.
