The Treasures of Carmelidrium, Synopsis

The first synopsis I wrote was very different. Then I updated it and posted it here as well as in my pages based on information I received. After I reviewed that synopsis on the e-book blurb, I learned that you only had 400 characters available to you. Thus a new synopsis that I hope readers will find enticing enough to buy my book.

When a hooded man steps in front of her car, Missie is thrust through a portal into a medieval world where she encounters monsters and mythical creatures. Here her flute has magical powers to heal and destroy and to empower, "The Treasures of Carmelidrium." She is romanced by a prince and hunted by the villain. Will she find her way home? Does she want to?

Below is my blog book tour. I will be giving away 3 e-books just for leaving a comment during the tour along with your email address so I can contact you. I hope you will follow me. I'm suspending all my other post during the tour except for the Sunday Bible Study.

Yours,
N. R. Williams (Nancy)

I like the idea of trimming a synopsis down like this. It has a great way of bringing out the energy of the book, great job! Best wishes on the tour, and Happy New Year to you :)

I like the new look too. It must be tough to make a little synopsis. But it’s enticing.

Thank you Misha.

Trim and tight as they say Joanna.

Thank you Summer.

I think the hardest thing for a writer, Holly, is to craft a short description after months or years of creating the actual book.

I appreciate all your comments.
Thanks
