Choices Meant For Kings continues Lender’s Choices Trilogy
Fantasy books are more popular then ever, and Sandy Lender’s new novel, Choices Meant for Kings will attract fantasy fans, young adults and readers of science-fiction. The book offers something new, fresh fantasy elements and an exciting story of romance and adventure.
Choices Meant for Kings offers believable, relatable characters that you root for and against. It offers situations that, while ensconced in a fantasy realm breathes from the page with just the right amount of detail and description, readers can imagine happening in their own lives. The heroine carries herself with integrity, yet shows the flaws inherent in youth from time to time. She makes this a Girl Power Fantasy without any sort of feminist agenda because she is a heroine with guts, with a great sense of humour, with compassion, with a special god-breathed “magic” that she wields as easily as she does a sword, with every young lady’s hopes and fears, with a budding sweet romance and a desire to make the right choices.
Sandy Lender is a fantasy author whose first breakout novel, Choices Meant for Gods, was compared to Tolkien, Rowling, Goodkind, Hobb, Asaro and other fantasy greats. This sequel novel, Choices Meant for Kings, is making Lender an in-demand fantasy writer/speaker and is attracting fantasy enthusiasts across the nation.
Lender has a Bachelors Degree in English and has worked as a Magazine Editor for the last seventeen years. She also is a leader of workshops on world-building and characterization, and has been a fantasy author panellist for science-fiction conferences. When not developing fantasy realms Sandy is a devoted sea turtle conservationist and proud cancer survivor.
Lender will continue to pen her series of fantasy books with Arche- Books Publishing, and is thrilled to be working on the third and final book in this series. Visit Sandy at www.authorsandylender.com.

Special Feature: Understanding the author of Alice in Wonderland
Lewis Carroll, the elusive author of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass, has been the subject of enduring fascination for the past hundred years. The destruction of many major documents about his personal life by his descendants has only magnified the mystery. Jenny Woolf's biography, published to coincide with the release of the new Tim Burton Alice in Wonderland film, lays waste to the myths and suspicions that have obscured Carroll's reputation by placing him firmly in the context of his own time.
