Though I’m not quite finished reading it yet, I felt like that shouldn’t delay me from sharing the wealth with you guys! It’s a bloody fantastic book and I’m super excited to be giving this away. Many of you know the drill, but in case you don’t: I am collecting entries through Saturday, August 18th. I will announce the winners the next day. How to Enter (PLEASE READ CAREFULLY): My…
Keeping their promise for Kate beating Terrible in a recent poll for the better Alpha character (as if there was ever any doubt), the Andrews clan is giving us Chapter 1 of Book 6. It’s literally hot off the press: http://www.ilona-andrews.com/snippet-writing/bribes-i-pay-them We are so luck that they are so awesome. Still waiting anxiously for my ARC of Gunmetal Magic myself…
I debated with myself about whether or not I should the word (because the smaller the pool the greater my chances, right?), but I decided to look out for my peeps because you guys rock. So yeah, if you want a chance to win the book then check out the Ilona Andrews Blog: http://www.ilona-andrews.com/give-away/win-an-advance-review-copy-of-gunmetal-magic/comment-page-7#comment-70880 And if one of you wins, you HAVE to tell me! I’m entered so I’ve got my fingers crossed. Good…
It took me a little while to get around to reading the second and final volume for the Moon Called graphic novel. What with no bookstores nearby, I wasn’t totally sure if I wanted to pay for a comic that I couldn’t see. The first volume was beautifully illustrated, but I wasn’t sure how much I would enjoy the story. For me the Mercy Thompson series definitely suffers from FBS…
http://www.ilona-andrews.com/writing/cover-reveal-gunmetal-magic I gotta say I really like it! Looks like Andrea is ready to kick butt and take names! I’ve always liked her character so I’m really looking forward to this release. Not that I don’t love Kate and Curran as well of course.
Yeah, so if you didn’t know, now you know (and you SHOULD know that it’ll be R-rated-ish): http://www.ilona-andrews.com/snippet-writing/magic-strikes-hot-tub-pov Nice short. I always appreciate reading Curran’s side of things. Above all, I really appreciate that the Andrews team doesn’t allow their series to be brought down by gratuitous sex scenes. The plot really does remain at the forefront. ————————————————– And yeah, if anybody will be around in an hour, I hope…
So now that I have your attention… There IS naked Curran, but there’s always more to say when it comes to a Kate Daniels story. I initially didn’t even read the synopsis because Kate gets an insta-click. The cover is really cool, making me wonder if covers for future novels are in for a style change. This story takes place after Magic Slays (Book 5) and runs simultaneously with Andrea’s…
Sandy Williams creates and nice array of characters in this new series. We’re taken into the world of McKenzie Lewis, a college student trying to live a normal life and finally earn her degree. Unfortunately, that is proving impossible due to her rare gift. While human, she has the ability to see and track fae–otherworldly beings from the Realm. Her gift has made her an asset for 10 years in…
The second installment of the Mercy Thompson series shifts focus from the werewolves to the vampires. This time her vampire friend, Stefan, decides to call in a favor from Mercy. She risks life and limb to thwart an evil sorcerer-turned-vampire (as if vampires weren’t evil enough on their own) causing numerous deaths all around the city. The supernatural cream of the crop are all involved to take this sucker down,…
Moon Called is the first book to kick off the very successful Mercedes Thompson series. While it follows the urban fantasy formula through incorporating vampires, shapeshifters, fae, and ghosts, it has the opportunity to differentiate itself with high quality world-building. The main character, Mercy, isn’t the prissy princess nor is she the leather-clad potty mouth badass. She works as a mechanic, getting her hands dirty the blue-collar way. She’s not…
