Hi Everyone,
Watch the book trailer and see if you can guess exactly what Tatsania's Gift is.
I'll drop some hints in the comments if it looks like people are getting stuck. You can enter (in the comments) as many times as you like. If you have more than one idea, let's hear them!
I'll give away a copy of Tatsania's Gift to the best/closest/most interesting answers, on Sept 1. If you make me laugh, you'll definitely get one! Your choice of Kindle, Kobo or iBook.
Here's the blurb:
Tatsania′s Gift is set on a dystopian Earth in the 24th century where there′s no clean water, little food and life is a brutal battle against the armed forces of ASSIST. Six-year-old Kali is forced to fight for her life when her mother is dragged away by ASSIST and two cruel ′aunties′ turn up to take care of her. But her mother has left her something precious - a gift that can save the world. With it Kali discovers her own magical powers and joins the underground movement where she learns the skills she'll need to survive on Earth. But no magic in our world could ever prepare her for what is to come . . .
Why a novella? It's a good question, especially since I tend to write much longer works. When I finished Journey by Night, book three in the Quantum Encryption series, my publisher and I realised that the first six chapters told a self-contained story of life on 24th century Earth. We decided to start JBN at chapter 7 and turn these first six chapters into a novella, which is now Tatasnia’s Gift.
For those new to the Quantum Enchantment and Quantum Encryption series, I hope this story will whet your appetite. If you have devoured the earlier works and are longing for more, this is it! Enjoy!
I'm looking forward to your guesses! See you in the comments.

Hmm I say a magical book
hm, i saw a rat, baby birds, another little girl about the same age, perhaps she has the gift of being able to communicate with animals and ... a secret sister? Oh, I give up!
Elizabeth, she does leave her a grimoire that's crucial for her survival . . . good guess. Still, there is another gift . . .
Anonymous, supper astute! It's on the right track, still, there is another gift. . .
I think she's left a way to communicate with her mother's spirit
Beautiful, Sandy. I love that. Still, there is another gift . . .
I see the double helix? Something encoded within her? Or are those jumping jacks? She is a kick-ass jacks' player and challenges the bad guys to a tournament?
Cate! You just cracked me up. And, you are in the right territory!
HINT: The gift is not in the realm of science . . . unless we're talking quantum physics, which is indistinguishable from magic.
I think Tatsania's Gift is magical powers from her mother.
magical blood?
gift of seeing into the past
gift of creating portals
gift of creating playgrounds
ohhh la la!!! You guys are walking all around it. Keep going! I know you'll spot this amazingly potent gift!
Could the gift be of seeing a girl that no one else can see due to some kind of witchcraft, who may help her fight the bad guys?
Or maybe having a friend from another dimension or time that will help her defeat the bad guys
I think that she will have some sort of powers/witch craft that she inherited that will some how help her defeat the bad guys in the world
June,you might be the closest so far! Excellent. Not the gift yet by you are sizzling hot around it!
Love everyone's ideas!
Has it got something to do with wings. . .flying. . . .a flying machine. . isesselizxxx
There is shape-shifting into falcon form but that's not the gift. Got me smiling big time though!!!! Thank you.
I think that maybe the other girl is the gift.
Is her gift being the only one who can see the girl?
SandyG and Bn100 are on the right track, hotter and hotter. Still . . .
So many fabulous answers. I'm going to be picking multiple winners for sure!
We have winners! Thank you all for jumping in! See the notice at the top of the post and email me! Copies go out Sept 1, 2012!
