We are counting down the days until the release of QUEEN OF SONG AND SOULS, book #4 of the Tairen Soul quintet. Each week, I'll be choosing winners to receive an autographed copy of QUEEN, so don't miss out!

We're into the final week of our countdown!!! To celebrate, I've added even more daily prizes to our giveaway, including some gorgeous new artwork from my friend and fabulous wildlife artist, Heather Carr, and a carved stone pocket tairen.
Sleek, golden Fahreeta and her indulgent mate Torasul tumble playfully through a bright summer sky in Heather Carr's original oil painting, "Tairen's Play". I must say, this is my personal favorite. I love the bright, blue summer sky, the rich golden hue of Fahreeta's fur, the affectionate twining of their tails as they tumble, the soft undertones of outstretched wings gleaming with translucent pinkness in the sun. It's as if Heather lifted the image straight from my imagination and transferred it to canvas.
A digitized rendition of the painting has been reduced to 4"x6" and mounted on a golden-oak stained solid wood plaque suitable for wall display. The full-sized painting will soon be available on Heather's website, www.darkparadise.org.

Question of the Day:
What place in the world of Eloran would you most like to visit?
posted by C.L. Wilson at

58 Comments:
In the world of Eloran, the place that I would most mike to visit would be either Fey'Bahren or Elvia. They both sound really interesting places and must be absolutely stunning.
I would like to visit The Garreval and see the Faering Mists. I'd also like to see Dharsa and Elvia.
i would like to visit the fading lands! it sounds the most beautiful and least seen.(beside fey'bahren)
~amanda
Easy question! I'd love to visit the Tairen prides in the Feyls mountain range. :)
I would love to walk through the Faering Mists.
-Jilly
I would love to see the Fearing Mistsbecause I want to see what it had instore for me...
I'd love to see Elvia. Forests have always drawn me. I wonder what kind or kinds there are. Huge, ancient trees, paths winding through deciduous groves, lush, wet forests (like the Seattle area)? *sigh* Whatever they are, I'd like to wander them.
~Rach
I would most defenitely visit the FAding Lands! This way I may have the opportunity to find my shei’tan!! That would make it the ultimate trip!
I have a migraine, and can't think of the name of the city that was abandoned. I mean come on, an ABANDONED FEY city. I bet you could find all kinds of realy cool things to explore. ANd maybe even a way to get to the source and fix it hmmmm?
After that would be the palace with Steli "knocking" on the doors LOL
I want to swim in the Bay of Flame as the sun sets,then dream beneath the light of the fairy-flies to find my own souls true magic. Only when we know our own magic and worth can we truely appreciate and hope for a true soul mate.
I would most want to visit Fey'Bahren and play in the lake with Stelli.
Although the Bay of Flame is very romantic I daresay this would best be explored with my truemate! Elvia calls to the magic within me......I would join the leaves as they dance upon the wind, breathing deep the history and the wonder! ~Gia~
What place I'd most like to visit ... hmmm ... I'm torn between The Fading Lands (particulalrly Fey'Bahren) and Elvia, which sounds very interesting too!
I'd actually like to see Deep Woods. From all the Elvish scenery and architecture that has been mentioned in the book; I think it'd be a place I'd like!
I would like to visit the bay of flame. The opportunity to have a revolution about ones destiny is just one i cant pass up
I think I'm stuck between Fey'Bahren and Elvia too. :) The landscapes have got to be gorgeous.
Though I would greatly enjoy seeing the Fading Lands, I would most like to see the Deepwood in Elvia. I am not sure why but my mind suddenly keeps turning to the elves of Eloran that we, as yet, know so little about.
I have the same answer as Julie. I want to visit the Tairen prides.
I agree with everyone I would love to see all the places mentioned. So I think for me I would choose two places not mentioned but dear to the things I love -water and books! I would love to see the Hall of Scrolls! Can you imagine the history writen there just waiting to be explored! The other would be Kiyera's Veil and the great city of Orest City of Mist, before the mage invasion of course!
The Fading Lands sounds wonderful.
I'd love to see all of it. Not only Dharsa but the abandoned cities as well, and I'd like to visit Fey'Bahren and see the tairen play.
I'd to visit the Bay of Flame, because it sounds so magical and beautiful.
I would visit the Bay of Flame with a fey on my own. I can picture it's beauty in mind and I want to see it for myself.
-Katie
I would love to see the Faering Mists, I don't think there's a place I wouldn't want to see, maybe Eld
Definitely Fey'Bahren to see the tairen!
Heather B
I'm going with Elvia.
Well, the fey'bahren would be kinda neat, but hands down, the Fading Lands itself. It's got to be the most beautiful place I've ever heard of, a true dream. The people are so kind and wonderful there, and not to mention all the men! Whoo!
I'd also like to so how I'd fair against the Faering Mists, I'm curious what they'd do to me.
Elvia and Fey'Bahren for me!
I would most want to visit Fey'Bahren.
I would love to be able to run through the forests of Elvia with my dog! All that space...it would be a blast to explore!!
Fey'Bahren for me.....
I'd want to honestly visit the Mage Lands, I want to see Vadim Maur's castle and especially the dungeon and where he keeps all his magick supplies. I'm pagan, so that would be really neat to see what he uses that might be something I do.
Faering Mists
I would love to visit the Fading Lands and Elvia both.
A very belated THANK YOU for drawing my name for Queen!!! I'm still riding that high!
Now, as for the question... I honestly don't have the first clue. Every place has been described so lovingly that I want to see them all, even the "bad" places.
Hard choice, but I'd have to say Elvia. I love the beauty of a forest, plus for me it seems so mysterious.
Ally
I think I'd actually like to go to the Warrior's Academy in Dharsa. I am attracted to swords (and why do all the cover show English-type swords when the book descriptions seem to describe Japanese-type swords?) and skills with weaponry. Training, discipline, and tradition. Warrior's creeds. Cool things to yell when you are fighting. (Do women jaff pain on a cold night just to keep warm, also?...I've wondered which parts of the anatomy are used in the jaffing process.)
Learning and understanding magic, history, and all that other stuff.
man any of these places sounds great. I would love to see the Bay of Flame or the deep woods. I have always been fascinated by Elves. But to see the Fading lands and the Tairen prides would be fantastic if I could get through the Faering mists.
Another hard question! I would love to visit anywhere in the Fading Lands, from Fey Bahren to Dharsa to the Bay of Flame, but I think I would most like to see Eadmond's Field, and the Lake of Glass.
April C
I would love to visit the Fading Lands...it sounds like a perfect place to go to ...
The Fading Lands(before the war) sound like a perfect place...great to go to to relax...
I'd want to visit Dharsa and the Feyls of course (mountains+Geologist=good), however, I also think it would be interesting to visit Celieria city and view the customs and fashion that they wear there.
I would love to see the Fearing Mists
Josie
I would like to visit Teleon back in it's prime. The renovation descriptions sounded so beautiful. I imagine it to be a very peaceful and exquisite place to see.
-Tracy
It's a toss up between Fey'Bahren and the Faering Mists.
Fey'Bahren. definitely
I have found my copy of book one, now I need to dig a little deeper in my TBR pile to find the other book in the series I have. The more I read in the comments, the more I want to get started on the books. Hall of Scrolls, Bay of Flames, the Faering Mists, they all sound wonderful.
Definitely the Bay of Flame, only of course if I bring a certain someone though. Although I'm sure it would be marvelous just the same. Bringing someone you love would just blow my mind.
- Elise
I think the Hall in the Fading Lands sounded neat. Castles should always be great and beautiful.
Oh, most certainly the Fey'Bahren... With the Bay of Flame close behind! :)
Patterson1219
Generally, I would have to say the important markers in the story.
Eadmond's Field to walk among the weaves made by Ellie and Rain; Celieria City to see the church after it's restored, and the city itself; The Garreval/Teleon, to walk places known to be beautiful and see the Faering Mists; Dharsa, to sip water from teh source and converse with the Fey; Fey Bahren, to mingle with the Tairen should they not find me a pleasant snack best served crispy; Blade's Point/Bay of Flame, to watch the sun set, and in its waters start my own soul quest; Elvia, to wander the Elven forests.
So many choices besides. My goodness, they all would be lovely to see.
to enter the Faering mists, followed closely by Elvia, always liked the elves)
Mak...
I would love to pass through the Faering Mists and I would love to see Fey'Bahren.
I would like to visit Teleon and then the Warrior's Academy.
-PW
Okay, I am going to go off the beaten path here and want to visit the sea poeples place. Rain thought about taking Elly there durningh their courtship and rreally struck my fancy. LOL
I would go to Fey'Bahren and see the Tairen but I wouls also like to see other areas in the fading lands also.
Sonja
Day 22 is closed to new "enter to win" comments. Day 23 is up.

Hugs on the migraine, Angie. And the abandoned city was Lissilin, Light of the East. :)
