On Music Monday of each week for 15 weeks I will post a song and lyrics from the ANGELFIRE playlist (some songs are on my website, some are not) to give you a taste of what ANGELFIRE and its main characters, Ellie and Will, are like. I will also post a contest to win a book from this list (in no particular order). The winner will be announced on the Monday of the next week, when the next contest is posted.
Week 9 winner of the ARC of ANGELFIRE is Ludwig at oneofakind308@gmail.com!
Congrats! I'll email you shortly for your address to send your prize.
Here's the stack of awesome books and swag I will be giving away to YOU.
(Dragonite and little reapers not included)
Week 10 Giveaway
Song: Preliator by Globus
Some of you may know that Ellie's official title in the ANGELFIRE series is the Preliator, which is roughly translated in Latin to "warrior." Obviously she would be called the Preliatrix with the feminine suffix, but I chose the use the masculine suffix for many reasons I won't go into. It's the decision I made, along with the other creative liberties I took in my Latin usage and lore interpretations. Take it any way you'd like =)
I'm also not going to post the lyrics because they are in crap-Latin, which makes the song nearly un-translatable. Whoever wrote this song knew only basic Latin, but I understand what they were trying for in the lyrics and the song is badass regardless. I write most of my fight scenes to this song. Big FFVII fan here so I used a fan-made Advent Children music video for this song =D

Ellie ends in lie. Do you know that Will? She lies to you!!
oreo_93 AT hotmail DOT com
Woohoo! New page
"I don't want to possess you. I wish to marry you because I love you!" *swoon* Oh John Thornton... yum! Margaret Hale, you are a silly, stupid girl!
Can we make it to 5,000? I daresay we will in less than five hours.
oreo_93 AT hotmail DOT com
Hooray! Over 4800 comments! and a shiny new page!!
@WulfLuva Hehe, you're saying anything to take Will from Ellie!
Ellie doesn't even remember you Will?! If you had been in my life for even two seconds I would forever remember you!
oreo_93 AT hotmail DOT com
@cyc Yes I am. I left myself single for him and he hasn't shown any appreciation.

Zorro's sword is nothing compared to Will's... :)
oreo_93 AT hotmail DOT com
No one's sword compares to Will's
My mom's thinking of people to cast as Zorro's teenage son for the thrid movie.

There was a guy I wished to know
He had the bod of a god and was tres beau
Waving a sword nearly twice as large
Beware all you Reapers for Will is in charge!
His bright green eyes and that killer smile
Rock my world with his clever wile.
How can Ellie resist you? Oh wait! She can’t!
For by your mere gaze do you truly enchant.
Oh Will, save Ellie
For the assassin is quite scary.
Be her hero, her love.
Nix that, you’re mine from above.
An immortal yes, but a vampire? Not really.
Even the Archangels got tired of that story.
A tale of new and a life of old
Will should be mine! Lo and behold!
Will, you’re really divine,
And I wish you were mine!
The hot one with the fancy, dandy sword
(Whom Bastion abhorred).
Tomorrow is the last day... I hope this goes by quickly!!!
That was fun. ^^

We should have like a widget with the countdown for this. If someone can make one (cause I can't) I will be very impressed. It would be like 30 points.

If I could, I would put on my fuzzy socks and slippers, slip into my warm bathrobe, cover up with a blanket on the couch along with my hot chocolate and my special copy of ANGELFIRE and read all day.
