Hey everyone!
Today I have a giveaway for the first two books in the Order of Darkness series by Philippa Gregory! This giveaway is open to US addresses only. All you need to do is fill out the Rafflecopter form below. Here is a summary for the first book in the series, Changeling-
Italy, 1453. Seventeen-year-old Luca Vero is brilliant, gorgeous—and accused of heresy. Cast out of his religious order for using the new science to question old superstitious beliefs, Luca is recruited into a secret sect: The Order of the Dragon, commissioned by Pope Nicholas V to investigate evil and danger in its many forms, and strange occurrences across Europe, in this year—the end of days.
Isolde is a seventeen-year-old girl shut up in a nunnery so she can’t inherit any of her father’s estate. As the nuns walk in their sleep and see strange visions, Isolde is accused of witchcraft—and Luca is sent to investigate her, but finds himself plotting her escape.
Despite their vows, despite themselves, love grows between Luca and Isolde as they travel across Europe with their faithful companions, Freize and Ishraq. The four young people encounter werewolves, alchemists, witches, and death-dancers as they head toward a real-life historical figure who holds the boundaries of Christendom and the secrets of the Order of the Dragon.

I have heard some great things about this series and the premise has me interested to find out more. I've also had a lot of people suggest Philippa Gregory and I don't know a better way to than to start with her YA books. :)
I've read great things from Gregory and this series sounds so good!
I've enjoyed Philippa Gregory's other historical novels; she has a knack for making historical characters seem human and inviting. I'd like to read her paranormal take on this time period.
