Hey, everyone!
"It takes a very special crew to keep the cloudship Orion running, and no one knows that better than Nadya Skylung, who tends the cloud garden that keeps the ship afloat. When the unthinkable happens and pirates attack, Nadya and the other children aboard--all orphans taken in by the kindhearted Captain Nic--narrowly escape, but the rest of the crew is captured. Alone and far from help, only Nadya and her four brave and loyal friends can take back the Orion and rescue the crew. And she'll risk life and limb to save the only family she's ever known. But . . . this attack was no accident. What exactly are the pirates looking for? Could it be Nadya they've been after all along?"
That's the description for NADYA SKYLUNG AND THE CLOUDSHIP RESCUE, which comes out in just two weeks! An excerpt of the first chapter is up at YA Books Central (http://www.yabookscentral.com/blog/spotlight-on-nadya-skylung-and-the-cloudship-rescue-by-jeff-seymour-plus-excerpt-giveaway), plus you can enter there to win a copy of the hardcover.
I know it's tacky to advertise books here, and I apologize for it, but I had the Wattpad community in mind when I wrote Nadya---it exists because of you guys, and for you guys (check Nadya's journal writing if you don't believe me), and I want to make sure you know about it. If you loved the adventures of Litnig, Ryse, Cole, Len, Leramis, Tsu'min and the Soulwoven crew, I bet you'll love Nadya, Tam, Salyeh, Tian Li, and Pepper even more.
You'll be able to find the book most places worldwide that sell English books. Amazon has it. Barnes and Noble has it. Your local bookstore should have it. Your library (school and public) might have it, and if they don't you can ask for it and they'll probably get it for you (it's had really good reviews, which librarians dig). You can pre-order it already.
I'll do just a few more posts about it when it comes out. In the meantime, thanks for hanging with me, and I've got a little thank-you coming. ;-)
