A Monthly Feature for the Greatest Readers in the World: Specially Chosen “Red Adept Select” Titles on Kindle – This Month’s Featured Title is Kindle Nation Fave Imogen Rose’s INITIATION
(Editor’s Note: We’ve had several opportunities to work with Lynn O’Dell of the popular Red Adept Reviews site over the past few years, so we’re very confident that she will be right at home here among the greatest readers in the world — you, the readers of Kindle Nation Daily. We’re very excited to introduce her to tell you a bit about the still very new Red Adept Select program and how we are working together to help our readers find great reading at great prices on Kindle. –S.W.)
Here’s Lynn:
I have been a book lover all my life. A little over two years ago, I began a book review blog, “Red Adept Reviews.” I focused on independently published (Indie) books because I loved having the opportunity to discover new talent. During my first year of reviewing Indie bo
oks, I was forced to give too many low ratings due to the poor editing of the books I reviewed. My frustration with that led me to start Red Adept Editing Service.
I am joined by a group of talented people who help me maintain excellent quality while I expand the services offered to writers. Every book edited by Red Adept Editing receives comprehensive editing and at least one complete proofread. We are proud to have edited over seventy Indie books, with many more to come.
Occasionally, we come across books that we simply can’t put down.
We recognize these books by branding them as “Red Adept Selects.”
Red Adept Select books are chosen by our professional team of editors and proofreaders for being “outstanding in their genre.” To avoid any conflict of interest, Red Adept reviewers do not review books edited by the team, though they do contribute in the choosing of our Select books.
And now, This Month’s Feature Title:
INITIATION (Bonfire Academy Book One) (Bonfire Chronicles)
by Imogen Rose
- A Red Adept Select book (voted “Outstanding in Genre”-YA)
- “It is better to fail in originality than to succeed in imitation.” – Herman Melville. That one phrase changed my life, AND my perception of what people expected. So I wrote it down, in a little black book, and put it in my purse. Now, I can’t tell you exactly how many times I have read that 1 phrase since I wrote it down, but every time I read a book, and then bask in the brilliance of it’s originality I think of Herman and his wise advice. THEN…I think of the authors that exude this quality more than most. Imogen Rose is one of these authors.- KindleObsessed
- Did the author make a deal with the devil or something to get this level of pure talent or what? Or maybe one of these demons from this book? Hmmm… – Candy Beauchamp (Candy’s Raves)
Imogen Rose is the author of the bestselling YA series, the Portal Chronicles. She was born in a small town in Sweden and moved to London in her twenties. After obtaining a PhD in immunology from Imperial College, she moved with her family to New Jersey, where she’
s been based for the past ten years.
For as long as she can remember, Imogen has dreamt stories. Stories that continued from night to night, from dream to dream. So, even as a child, going to bed was never an issue, just an anticipation of the story to come.
PORTAL, Imogen’s first novel, would have remained in her imagination, to be shared only with her daughter, Lauren, had her eight-year-old not insisted that she write it down. In the course of a month, Imogen typed while Lauren waited eagerly by the printer for the pages to appear, and a novel took shape.
The warm reception PORTAL received encouraged her to continue with the story and the Portal Chronicles. Faustine is Imogen’s first book in her new series, the Bonfire Chronicles. She has recently published INITIATION, the prequel to FAUSTINE.
Imogen is a self-confessed Hermès addict who enjoys shopping, traveling, watching movies and playing with her dog, Tallulah.
Kindle Nation Bargain Book Alert! Here at Kindle Nation Daily we pride ourselves on letting you know about terrific reads, but here’s one we learned about from our readers first — by the hundreds! Bestselling author Imogen Rose’s debut novel PORTAL — the book that had readers repeating that mesmerizing line “Come find me two years ago….” – Now in a $1.99 special edition on Kindle!
PORTAL: A Time Travel Romance
“I think it has a very clever hook and plays so well against a variety of genres -YA, fantasy, romance, sci-fi. It’s a very tough balancing act to walk the tightrope of so many genres without slipping up on one of them, but I’ll be damned if you didn’t pull it off with aplomb”- Terry Goodman (Senior Editor at Amazon Publishing)
“Portal…when love’s just the beginning of the story” – KindleObsessed

FAUSTINE (Bonfire Chronicles)
Fantastic concept, fantastically executed, and a promising start to a new series. -KindleObsessed
Imogen Rose is a genius… an evil genius. -Candy Beauchamp (Candy’s Raves)
Who is Faustine? When Faustine Spencer was five years old, she discovered a secret that changed her life forever. At twelve, her parents sent her to Bonfire Academy in Switzerland to ensure that she received the training needed to control her increasing powers.
Three years later, Faustine returns to Manhattan. All she wants is to be a typical teenager, at least, one that’s part of the in-crowd at her Upper East Side High School. When drop-dead gorgeous Ryker, her long-time crush from the Academy, finally notices her, she couldn’t be happier.
However, her desire for a normal life is shattered when her father, a prominent sovereign, disappears after naming her as his successor. Her siblings begin to disappear, and Faustine finds herself in the midst of a power struggle.
