Blurb - The stakes are high in the second installment of
The Iron World Series as Avery Quinn decides which path her life will take.
Become a vampire and be with Jack forever, or pledge herself to the Fey and
help save Faerie from the horrible Queen Mabry? The more she thinks about it
the more she wants to remain human. But as she sinks further into the magical
world she has come to love, Avery realizes that remaining human is next to
impossible, especially when a dark king sets his sights on her. To make matters
worse, a secret society of shape shifters have sworn themselves as Avery’s
enemy all because of a certain classmate with a caustic temperament. With a
mythical war brewing and Evaine close on her heels, Avery must decide who to
give her humanity to before it’s too late.

Bio: Born
in 1985 as Candace Osmond in North York Ontario, I began to travel with my
parents at the very young age of four years old. I had lived all over Canada
and seen everything my country has to offer, from the enchanting shores of Fogo
Island, Newfoundland to the gigantic snow-capped mountains of Port
Alberni, British Columbia all by the time I was ten. I did, however, spend
most of my life in Eastern Canada where I was surrounded by folklore and
legends, not knowing how they would shape my personality and imagination for the
rest of my life. Being the only girl of my age in a small group of kids, in an even smaller town, left me spending most of my time by myself and, in result, letting my imagination take over. I would sit by the shore and dream up stories of mermaids and other fantastic creatures to pass the time. Coming from a family with writers and artists dispersed throughout, it was only natural that I spend my time writing, drawing and reading. I dreamed of becoming nothing more than an artist, a creator of any kind. By the age of eleven, I spent most of my waking hours scribbling down short stories, poems and anything else I could think of, while adding my own personal illustrations. By the age of fourteen, I had won numerous minor arts and writing competitions. I excelled at anything art and literature related so, naturally, I planned to attend university for nothing more or less than that. In 2003 I planned to attend university for Creative Writing and Literary Studies. But, with the fear that I would spend all my time and money on an education and end up in a field that I may very well struggle to succeed in, I backed out and attended school for Design instead. Now, a successful Designer living happily in sunny Medicine Hat, Alberta, I met a man and fell in love. His passion and talent for art far exceeds my own, but he motivated me to awaken my old habits of staying up late or waking up early to scribble down dreams and ideas before I had forgotten them and they disappeared forever.

Blood
& Bone Ultimate Playlist
My playlist for Blood & Bone was quite different from the one for Iron & Wine simply because I had to go to dark places and make myself feel sad, angry, and sometimes helpless. Avery experiences a great deal of heart ache and also confusion about who she is and what she should be in this book. These songs helped put me in that state of mind and imagine what feelings and emotions would be like when going through those hard times as a young adult.
1. Cold Desert by Kings of Leon
2. Dying by Hole
3. I Know Places by Lykke Li
4. Blown Wide Open by Big Wreck
5. The Scientist by Coldplay
6. The Only Exception by Paramore
7. All I Wanted by Paramore
8. On Call by Kings of Leon
9. Doll Parts by Hole
10. Violet by Hole
11. Don't Forget Me by The Red Hot Chilli Peppers
12. Change by The Deftones
