Science Fiction and Fantasy World Weighs in on Sword in the Stars

Hi, all!

I've talked to you about Science Fiction and Fantasy World.com before. They are one of the largest, if not the largest, fantasy and SciFi reader website in the world. Their members include Fantasy heavyweights such as R.A. Salvatore, Joe Abercrombie, Alison Croggon, and many more. A vote of confidence from SSF.com means a lot for the long term interest in a novel. So, I'm stoked to announce that SFFworld.com Moderator, Rob Bedford has given Sword in the Stars a rating of "Recommended." Click below on the cover image to read the review:



Also, in case you missed this one: Wonderful Kat G. over at Science Fiction and Fantasy World just posted a new interview with me. If you'd like to know a little more about where Sword in the Stars came from and where The Dark Sea Annals are going...click on over:

Words cannot describe how happy this makes me.

If it weren't for J.R.R. Tolkien, I don't really know if I'd be an author today. It was 30 years ago this summer that my cousin Diedre gave me a copy of The Hobbit to read. To that point, I hadn't been much of a reader. I read when school forced me to, but not for fun. The Hobbit changed all that and completely shifted the course of my life. So today, I hear the news that Sir Peter Jackson has officially begun shooting the two Hobbit movies…well, I couldn't be happier. So much about this photo resonates with me. How about you?
