Eating Bull by Carrie Rubin

Synopsis Taken Straight From Amazon:

Silver Medal Winner, 2016 IPPY book award, Best Regional Fiction (Great Lakes)

A fight against the food industry turns deadly.

Jeremy, a lonely and obese teenager, shoots into the limelight when a headstrong public health nurse persuades him to sue the food industry. Tossed into a storm of media buzz and bullying, the teen draws the attention of a serial killer who’s targeting the obese. Soon the boy, the nurse, and their loved ones take center stage in a delusional man’s drama.

Through fiction, Eating Bull explores the real-life issues of bullying, fat-shaming, food addiction, and the food industry’s role in obesity.

“A solid thriller that manages to infuse one boy’s coming-of-age with a whole lot of murder.”–Kirkus Reviews

 

The Shadow of a King (Shadowland Book 2) by C.M. Gray

Synopsis Taken Straight From Amazon:

In his fifteenth year of rule, King Uther Pendragon – High King of all the Celtic Tribes – is set on a quest by Merlyn and the druids of Mona, to brave the winter seas and set sail for the Isle of Erin. The quest placed upon the king, despite the tribal lands being at war with Saxon invaders, is to take a war party and return with a prize that will lay to rest the ghosts of the past and allow the Celts to reclaim their lands.

But none of those who set sail realize what this quest will release within their king, and what events will unfold.

The second book in C.M. Gray’s Shadowland series, The Shadow of a King is a standalone fantasy adventure and can be enjoyed even if you haven’t read the first book in the series.
