INFINITY RING…so far

Next week I’ll go into more detail about the book I’m releasing soon, but for those who need to get caught up on the series, here’s what you’ve missed…

I happen to have a few extra copies of a couple of books laying around, and I will send them, one per person, to anyone who asks for one in comments. When they’re gone, they’re gone!

Summaries provided by Scholastic.

13316287BOOK ONE: A MUTINY IN TIME

When best friends Dak Smyth and Sera Froste stumble upon the secret of time travel — a hand-held device known as the Infinity Ring — they’re swept up in a centuries-long secret war for the fate of mankind. Recruited by the Hystorians, a secret society that dates back to Aristotle, the kids learn that history has gone disastrously off course.

Now it’s up to Dak, Sera, and teenage Hystorian-in-training Riq to travel back in time to fix the Great Breaks . . . and to save Dak’s missing parents while they’re at it. First stop: Spain, 1492, where a sailor named Christopher Columbus is about to be thrown overboard in a deadly mutiny!

By James Dashner, NYT Bestselling author of THE MAZE RUNNER series and the recently released THE EYE OF MINDS.

BOOK TWO: DIVIDE AND CONQUER

(2 Hardcover books, and one galley available)

Hundreds of ships carrying thousands of warriors are laying siege to medieval Paris. The Parisians are holding their own, but the stalemate can only last so long. And that’s bad news — especially since Dak has been captured, forced to work alongside the Vikings while Sera and Riq defend Paris from within. No matter which side wins, the kids lose!

By Carrie Ryan, NYT Bestselling author of THE FOREST OF HANDS AND TEETH trilogy.Dak, Sera, and Riq might be in over their heads when they attempt to stop a Viking invasion!

BOOK THREE: THE TRAP DOORimages

(3 Hardcover books available)

Dak, Sera, and Riq return to the United States and walk immediately into a deadly trap. The year is 1850, and the nation is divided over the issue of slavery. In these dark days, the Underground Railroad provides a light of hope, helping runaway slaves escape to freedom. But the SQ has taken control of the Underground Railroad from within. Now Dak and Sera are left wondering who to trust . . . while Riq risks everything to save the life of a young boy.

By Lisa McMann, NYT Bestselling author of books for teens and the popular series, THE UNWANTEDS.

BOOK FOUR: CURSE OF THE ANCIENTS 9780545386999_p0_v4_s260x420

Sera has a secret. She’s seen the future, and it is terrifying. Unfortunately, she can’t do anything to prevent the Cataclysm while stranded with Dak and Riq thousands of years in the past. Their only hope lies with the ancient Maya, a mysterious people who claim to know a great deal about the future. Is there more to these ancients than meets the eye?

By Matt De La Pena, critically-acclaimed author of several books for teens, including BALL DON’T LIE, MEXICAN WHITEBOY, and the forthcoming THE LIVING.

BOOK FIVE: CAVE OF WONDERS

(2 galley copies available)

Europe is in the grip of the Dark Ages, but there is a light in the dark: Baghdad. The great city has become a center of learning, populated by scholars, merchants, and explorers from all across the known world. But danger lurks in the desert . . . and Dak, Sera, and Riq must act fast to save the world’s greatest library from utter destruction.

By Matthew J. Kirby, award-winning author of THE CLOCKWORK THREE, ICEFALL, and the recently released THE LOST KINGDOM.

Online Game: Can you help get Lewis and Clark back on the trail again?

Beyond the adventure of fixing history, Dak, Sera, and Riq are dealing with other issues. What did Sera see when she disappeared at the end of Book 3? Where are Dak’s parents? Why doesn’t Riq have remnants?

Next week, I’ll tell you about BEHIND ENEMY LINES, and what I consider to be one of the coolest spy stories in history!

    I would really love to have the first book in the series, but I’d rather pass, because I am outside US (Philippines to be exact, shipping would be crazy.) and I’d rather someone else have it.

    But thanks for the offer ;). So excited for your new series and I am definitely and patiently waiting for The Shadow Throne.

    You’re so great!

    Merry Christmas to you (already).

        The storm was en route our area (Cebu) and some parts were affected greatly, but I’m so thankful we were ok.

        Thanks a lot for the concern.

    I hope those who get the books enjoy them!

    I’ve been planning on reading this series and I’m really looking forward to it. It’s so cool how each book is written by a different person and it will be interesting to see how each author’s writing style comes into play in their book. I think it’ll be a real fun read! 🙂

    Sounds really cool… But I’d let others have it because I’m going away for awhile…
    Anyways, my class was bummed when we finished The Runaway King because book three isn’t out yet and they won’t have the same teacher next year to read it to them. So are you giving away other books like The Shadow Throne too?

      Micah, yes there will be a giveaway for The Shadow Throne here on this blog in December. Stay tuned!

    AHH! I missed it, I wanted to get as many of those books as I can! Some kid keeps checking out The Infinity Ring series, so I can’t read them :L
    I doubt you have any more copies, or any of The Infinity Ring, I guess I’ll have to go to the….. Public Library D: (Oh, that place is evil, I get bad vibes from it) (<– Oh maybe because I don't like having to talk to people- I can't even order chicken nuggets DX)

    Jennifer,

    I love the Ascendance Trilogy and was digging around your website to see if you would be in the DC area soon. I was sad to see you wouldn’t be! I would love to have a free copy of your book and just ordered the Eliot series for my 8 year old brother for Christmas. Thanks for all the great reads and can’t wait for the February release date!!!
