Erm...that readers of fantasy, not readers who are figments of my imagination. 
Anyway, I have two books written in a fantasy series that, as it has a 13 year old protagonist, I originally promoted as a children's book. They are also the right length for MG readers (10-13 years), but they've been read (and enjoyed) mostly by adults, old enough to be their parents and grandparents. Children's ebooks are a hard sell, though, and I'm wondering whether I ought to change categories and go after an adult market.
So, I'm offering the first book free, via Smashwords coupon, to anyone who would be prepared to read it and give me their opinion on it and whether it would work as an adult novella.
You can view it on Amazon here: www.amazon.com/dp/B0060IBQ36
And also visit the Kel's World website (do check out the map!) here: kelthechamaeleon.weebly.com/
Thank you. Please PM me for the code if this is of interest.
Chamaeleon: The Secret Spy.
Kel is a very special thirteeen year old with the unique ability to disappear into any background. With his country under threat from the evil Grey Lord, Kel is recruited and trained as a spy. Together with Rostyn the King's Messenger, he is sent to infiltrate the forbidding Grey Keep and destroy their enemy's deadly new weapon.
On their dangerous journey into the mountains of Keraylia, Kel's growing self-doubt convinces him that he will fail. When Rostyn is taken prisoner inside the Keep, Kel's talents are stretched to their limits — and his only helper is a bossy princess. Soon Kel is involved in a desperate struggle to save his friend and successfully complete his mission.
Set in a strange, medieval world where old and new technologies combine and swords are pitted against lasers, Chamaeleon: The Secret Spy is an exciting, fast-paced adventure you won't want to put down.
