GIF Mood Board

Instead of doing a standard photo collage for my mood board, I thought it’d be fun to take it a step further and do a GIF MOOD BOARD (created with PicPlayPost)!

Alwyn has created a wonderfully rich world full of magic, deserts, and people who will steal your heart! For more images, check out Alwyn Hamilton’s Pinterest Board! She has boards to each book in this series and the images are gorgeous!


About the Book

TRAITOR TO THE THRONE (Rebel of the Sands #2) by Alwyn Hamilton

Released: March 7, 2017
Publisher: Penguin Teen

Summary:

The sizzling, un-put-downable sequel to the bestselling Rebel of the Sands!

Mere months ago, gunslinger Amani al’Hiza fled her dead-end hometown on the back of a mythical horse with the mysterious foreigner Jin, seeking only her own freedom. Now she’s fighting to liberate the entire desert nation of Miraji from a bloodthirsty sultan who slew his own father to capture the throne.

When Amani finds herself thrust into the epicenter of the regime—the Sultan’s palace—she’s determined to bring the tyrant down. Desperate to uncover the Sultan’s secrets by spying on his court, she tries to forget that Jin disappeared just as she was getting closest to him, and that she’s a prisoner of the enemy. But the longer she remains, the more she questions whether the Sultan is really the villain she’s been told he is, and who’s the real traitor to her sun-bleached, magic-filled homeland.

Forget everything you thought you knew about Miraji, about the rebellion, about djinni and Jin and the Blue-Eyed Bandit. In Traitor to the Throne, the only certainty is that everything will change.

About the Author:

Alwyn Hamilton was born in Toronto and spent her childhood bouncing between Europe and Canada until her parents settled in France. She grew up in a small town there, which might have compelled her to burst randomly into the opening song from Beauty and the Beast were it not for her total tone-deafness. She instead attempted to read and write her way to new places and developed a weakness for fantasy and cross-dressing heroines. She left France for Cambridge University to study History of Art at King’s College, and then to London where she became indentured to an auction house. She has a bad habit of acquiring more hardcovers than is smart for someone who moves house quite so often. Follow her at @AlwynFJH.

    Your mood board is gorgeous! I’ll admit, I haven’t yet read Rebel of the Sands, but I did read the sampler. Even with only having 2/3 chapters, I was hooked! So much creativity with the whole Wild West-meets-Middle East feel.

    Thanks for the chance!
