Wednesdays in the Tower Blog Tour: Author Interview


I'm thrilled to have the Wednesdays in the Tower Blog Tour stopping by today with my interview with author Jessica Day George. Wednesdays in the Tower is the much anticipated follow up to Tuesdays at the Castle...



Wednesdays in the Tower
(Castle Glower #2)
by Jessica Day George
5/7/13
Bloomsbury
Purchase: Amazon / B&N / Indiebound

A castle that is constantly rearranging itself, and a young royal family sworn to protect it... Celie, Rolf, and their beloved Castle Glower are back in this exciting sequel.

Strange things are afoot in Castle Glower: new rooms, corridors, and even stables keep arriving, even when they aren't needed. Celie's brother Bran, the new Royal Wizard, has his hands full cataloguing an entire storeroom full of exotic and highly dangerous weapons, while Celie has her hands full . . . raising the creature that hatches from a giant egg she finds! Will they be able
to find out what's making the Castle behave this way in time?
