Goddess Fish Promotions - Immortal Girl5 by Griffin Stark
This post is part of a virtual book tour organized by Goddess Fish Promotions. Griffin Stark will be awarding a copy of the book (US ONLY) to a randomly drawn winner via rafflecopter during the tour. Click on the tour banner to see the other stops on the tour.
The year is 1095, Normandy, France. Five year old Skylar runs away into the woods to escape nuns who are convinced her inexplicable seizures are the work of satan. She survives after being adopted by wolves, when two mysterious strangers appear and reveal Skylar’s destiny to her. Skylar is the first of the Immortal Girls, destined to save humanity from itself.
Immortal Girl5 (January 22, 2019) follows Skylar, Rachel, Caitlin, Beth, and Bethany, five immortal sisters who, over the course of a thousand years, attempt to learn the purpose of their own existence while hunting down the worst criminals this world has ever seen. They’ve faced the likes of Jack the Ripper and the Nazis, but as a new enemy arises to threaten the sisters’ survival they’ll soon learn that immortality doesn’t mean forever.
Read an Excerpt
“Wait! Now look, please, just let me explain!” he begged her, while shielding himself from the next imminent attack. Even if he’d had the desire to fight back—which he certainly did not—Luke wasn’t sure how easy it would be. After all, she’d survived more than a thousand years from what he’d been told. For being that old, this girl looked beyond amazing, with her blonde hair that fell into curls at the ends, angelic looks, and a flawless, pale complexion that held two stormy blue eyes of unusual intensity. Skylar seemed to accept Luke’s sincerity, at least for the moment, and slowly put her fist down by her side.
About the Author:

Wibell’s lifelong interest in mythology includes epic poetry like
the Odyssey, Ramayana, Beowulf, and the Nibelungenlied. In addition,
she is interested in all things animal whether training dogs,
apprenticing at a children’s zoo, or caring for injured animals as
a licensed wildlife rehabilitator. After receiving degrees from
Mercer University in both art and psychology with an emphasis in
animal behavior, Wibell moved to New Orleans with her dog, Alli, to
kick start her career as an artist and a writer. Her first literary
works blend her knowledge of the animal world with the world of high
fantasy.

Which of your novels can you
imagine made into a movie?
Honestly, I would love all four
books of The Incarn Saga projected on the big screen after Giahem’s Talons is published next year (2019). When I watch movies
like Life of Pie and Disney’s live
action The Jungle Book, I am amazed
at the visual effects used to create the animals, especially the tigers. I
would love that same technology used when my Theriomorphs transform to and from
their animal forms.
Then with movies like The Lord of the Rings and TV series like
Game of Thrones, I can imagine how
some of the battle scenes in the books might look like. When I was younger,
this sort of movie would not have been possible, but now I am excited to think
about the possibility that one day The Incarn Saga might be a movie series.
What literary pilgrimages have
you gone on?
I was very fortunate to visit
Oxford, England, a year ago. While there, I was able to visit The Eagle and
Child pub where the Inklings, an informal writer’s group, used to meet and
discuss their work. This famous fellowship included J. R. R. Tolkien, C. S.
Lewis, Owen Barfield, Charles Williams among others. The Inklings fascinate me
with their wide breadth of interests, their lasting effects on modern fantasy,
and their love of all things Norse.
As a writer, what would you
choose as your mascot/avatar/spirit animal?
Can I say the Dragon? For as
long as I can remember, I have read, watched, admired, and researched
everything that pertains to this wide-ranging group of mythical animals. From
the fire-breathing, winged lizards of European lore to the levitating,
water-controlling creatures in China, I love them all.
