Blog tour Excerpt + Giveaway: The Sundering by Megg Jensen

Today I'm very happy and excited to be able to give a quick glampse into the third novel of the Swarm Trilogy by Megg Jensen.
And once again thanks to BB Blog Tours for letting me be part of this great blog tour!

The Sundering

by Megg Jensen
Series: The Swarm Trilogy #3
Release date: 1st October, 2012

Summary from Goodreads:

After defeating the Malborn and losing the person she loved most, Lianne escapes to Chase's homeland. With her appearance forever marked by death, Lianne feels like a monster both on the outside and the inside. She retreats into herself, fearful of what she's become.

But she can't hide forever.

The Malborn, damaged but not broken, send a deadly message to Lianne. They are coming for her and now she's brought danger to a peaceful land that believed they'd driven the Malborn from their shores forever. Lianne must force herself to trust again and make the ultimate sacrifice to save everyone she loves. In a world ruled by whoever harnesses the most powerful magic, no one can be trusted – no one is safe.

The Sundering Excerpt

"The scent of leather and hay mixed together, washing over my senses. I melted into Aphotica, laying my head on her neck and closing my eyes. I felt every beat of her hooves, every breath she took mixed with my own. My soul came alive again, soaring above the clouds with wild abandon."
