Zondervan Unveils Free Mobile App for Halflings Series from Heather Burch
Mar. 16, in the year of our Lord
2012 - With award-winning author Heather Burch setting
the media and the YA blogosphere abuzz with her new series of
thrilling paranormal romance books, HALFLINGS, publisher
Zondervan has unveiled a free, cutting-edge mobile app that
gives readers the opportunity to further enjoy the book’s
exciting universe beyond the printed page.
In the HALFLINGS trilogy, Nikki Youngblood discovers she’s the
central target of supernatural attacks and turns to three
half-angel boys (Raven, Mace, and Vine) for protection. A
growing attraction between Nikki and two of her protectors
presents a new danger: while she risks a broken heart, Mace and
Raven could lose everything, including their souls. As the
mysteries behind the boys' powers, and her role in a scientist's
dark plan, unfold, Nikki is faced with choices that will affect
the future of an entire race of heavenly beings, and could
disrupt the precarious equilibrium of the earthly world.
The universal iOS app – now available for iPhone, iPad and iPod
Touch – features the HALFLINGS Memory Match Challenge, a
turbo-speed memory game in which players are asked to remember
where symbols are hidden and unveil them in pairs or triplets.
Successful competitors will get faster and faster as they make
the right matches, learning that their fingers will soon obey
their brains with Halfling-like speed and agility. The levels of
play become more difficult as the players advance.
The app is also universally available for Android devices and
can be downloaded via Google Play.

“We designed the HALFLINGS Memory Match Challenge so readers can
continue to enjoy the book’s engaging experience,” said Annette
Bourland, Senior Vice President and Zonderkidz publisher. Those
who download the app will also be able to access the HALFLINGS
illustrated prequel, 11:15: The Making of a Halfling, available
as a free downloadable eBook. The app also gives fans the
opportunity to connect with Heather on The Halflings Network at
halflings.ning.com, and receive updates about upcoming books in
the series.
Making her mark alongside Stephanie Meyer, Lauren Kate and other
acclaimed authors in the paranormal genre, Heather Burch has
written a novel that Publishers Weekly hailed as “easy to,
gobble up, and seek more.”
