Independent book launch: Immune by Shannon Mayer

It’s hard to resist a book launch by another independent author, especially when she’s a fellow Canadian who’s also into fantasy for grown-ups.

Shannon Mayer, author of A Zombie-ish Apocalypse and Priceless, will release the sequel to Priceless on March 6: Immune.

What’s it about?

When children go missing without a trace, there is only one person who can find them.

Welcome to the world of Rylee Adamson, a woman with unique abilities, some wild friends and a unstoppable drive to save those who can't save themselves.

But when the details of a missing child duplicate that of her worst case, things start to get freaky. And not in a good way.

I’ll extend the author’s warning to her Mom, and anyone else who shares her sensibilities:

“I’m so sorry Mom, this one will be no good for you to read, either. There is a full on sex scene (nipples and everything), violence and well, lots of bad words. You know — the ones you used to wash my mouth out with soap for? Consider yourself warned.

To celebrate the launch, Shannon’s giving away three signed copies of Priceless. Follow the Rafflecopter below before March 13 for your chance to win an autographed paperback book AND a $5 Amazon gift card.

Shannon Mayer lives in the southwestern tip of Canada with her husband, dog, cats, horse, and cows. When not writing she spends her time staring at immense amounts of rain, herding old people (similar to herding cats) and attempting to stay out of trouble. Especially that last is difficult for her.
