More about the author

Having been an automotive mechanic for 25+ years, RaeAnne Hadley aka R.A. Lingenfelter never dreamed she would be an International Gold Medal award winning author, or an IMDb certified award-winning director and producer for multiple international film festivals.

Her writing has won accolades and is being compared to Suzanne Collins’ Hunger Games, Red Dawn and George Orwell’s 1984, but she definitely wants her writing voice to be as unique as her personality.

RaeAnne credits her now deceased father for her career change, as he was the one who read her notes on ways to kill off her boss via vehicular homicide after he fired her for taking maternity leave. Instead of spending time behind bars, R.A. happily spends her time behind the laptop plotting new worlds and new ways of vengeance.

Her first book in the series, End of Crows, was scheduled to premiere at the 2020 Denver Comicon but unfortunately, Covid changed that. End of Crows has won the highly coveted Gold Medal from International Readers’ Favorite Award for Young Adult Adventure in 2022, 2023 Cadmus International and the second book, Flight of Sparrows won the 2023 International Readers’ Favorite silver medal. She’s had four of her novels hit #1 on Amazon and hopes to earn more credentials with her writing.

2022 READER’S CHOICE INTERNATIONAL GOLD MEDAL WINNER YOUNG ADULT ADVENTURE

A DEADLY GAME WHERE HUMANS ARE THE PAWNS…

What used to be the beautiful Colorado mountains is now a hiding place for the Crows. The Dominion punishes those who disobey. PIMs, known as personal identification microchips, are surgically implanted into the mandible of humans at birth, and programmed to detonate should someone decide to rise against the Dominion’s laws. Seventeen-year-old Willow Danner was raised under the Dominion tyranny, but her parent’s had been born free. Growing up with a plan to vanish, Willow and her family finally escape into the mountains and the safety of the Crows’ Faction. Instead of finding asylum, Willow finds she is the object of scrutiny. Worried she exchanged one form of imprisonment for another, she decides to take fate into her own hands, and trust her instincts. As she fights for her independence, someone else wants to drag her back behind Dominion walls.

“The comparisons of Willow to Katniss Everdeen of Hunger Games fame are clearly evident as Willow’s talent as a fighter and her determination to win come to the surface. Without training of any kind, she displays great skill in the use of a variety of weapons as well as her bare hands. But, Willow possesses more than these physical abilities and as the story unfolds, her supernatural gifts become more evident and specific to the plotlines. Also like Collins, R.A. Lingenfelter writes tight, straight-to-the-point sentences and paragraphs that propel the reader through each event and scene without undue and unnecessary detail.
In particular, Lingenfelter’s ability to build characters simultaneously to the ever-increasing tension of the primary plotline is evidenced by her multiple appearances at the top of Amazon’s bestseller lists. End of Crows, while standing on its own, is also the perfect lead novel in the four-book series. Highly recommended for readers who enjoy fast-paced action/adventure stories with hints of the supernatural and powerful lead characters like Willow!” ~Reader’s Favorite Review

“It’s an excellent comparison to make between the willfulness of teenage rebellion and the passionate but desperate nature of a freedom fighter’s rebellion, and R.A. Lingenfelter doesn’t waste an ounce of the concept’s potential in this exciting and tense story of acceptance and the will to fight back. I adored the world-building on show on every page with the Dominion being a constant source of low-level anxiety between run-ins in exactly the way that living under a regime of that nature would be. I particularly enjoyed how for much of the story they were able to be a threat despite not being physically present, such was the terror invoked by the idea of the Dominion that even discussion of them became intimidating. End of Crows is an outstanding work of dystopian fiction that captures both the oppressive nature of living under a hostile regime as well as the spark of resistance that lies in people no matter how much they fear for their lives.” ~Reader’s Favorite Review
