A Piece of Sky: A fractured retelling of CHICKEN LITTLE (Crowns of the Twelve Book 4)

4.4 out of 5 stars (46)

One little red hen. One golden acorn. One GIANT adventure! "It's about you... It matters who you believe you are.... Your potential is infinite."
--Shiver, the last gryphon of Tór

The most powerful force in creation has been stolen from the Tree of Life. Nurgal, Lord of Decay, is convinced the golden seed he possesses will help him end man's time on earth. The last thing he expects is for a little red hen to try and stop him.

When the magic acorn strikes Rós in the head and changes how she sees the entire world, she believes the sky is falling. Determined to discover the identity of the seed, she strikes out into the big, wide world to find her answers. Many factions are in play and lives are at stake when she learns that an even greater evil is at hand.

Can one little red hen save the world?

In this twist on the classic tale of Chicken Little, no one is too small to make a difference.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"A Piece of Sky has an imaginative power reminiscent of A Wrinkle In Time. It's a compelling story with a spirited voice."
--Michael S. Glassford, author of Fog of Fortune

"There is a really great message of bravery, standing up for what is right, and making the decision to choose if you will be something good and kind and beautiful, or if you will be someone that gives up and allows the darker side of yourself to take over."
--
Rebecca Lamoreaux, Author in Progress

"Hunter blends fae and celtic mythos with modern day fables in a seamless fashion. She has mastered the art of retelling fables...."

--
LV Adams, Ramblings & Musings of a Caffeine-Addicted Mind

From the Author

The message I wish to send with A Piece of Sky is simple.
"You have divine purpose and will. You have the power to change the world even though you are only one soul."
Go forth and be the sky.

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Multi-award winning author Ann Hunter is awesome. And hilarious. She is often told it must be a blast living in her brain. She argues that the voices in her head never shut up. The only way to get relief is to let them out on to the page.

She credits the voices for:

Crowns of the Twelve - A fractured fairy tale series: Moonlight, Blade of Woe, The Subtle Beauty, Fallen, A Piece of Sky

North Oak - championing tough kid and teen issues through the fast-paced world of horse racing. IF YOU'RE A FAN, DON'T MISS UPDATES:

She likes cherry soda with chocolate ice cream, is a mom first and a writer second, has a secret identity, and thinks the Twilight movies are cheesier than cheez whiz (which is why they are her guilty pleasure! And Oh my goodness, have you seen Vampires Suck? Bwahaha!)

She lives in a cozy Utah home with her two awesome kids and epic husband.

Ann realizes she speaks in third person, and this profile is entirely unprofessional.

But that is why you'll love her!
