Hello, Friends!\u00a0 SHIELD OF THE PEOPLE is out! I am very excited.\u00a0 Some review quotes:<\/p>\n
“I love seing good-hearted characters who keep true to their moral centers even in a gritty world. Shield of the People<\/i> is wonderfully emotionally complex while also barreling through fantastically-paced action. Highly recommend!”\u00a0 — Cass Morris, author of\u00a0From Unseen Fire<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n “A series of violent rebel threats on the elections and the twisty machinations of both the Tarian Order and the Open Hand ensure enough action and intrigue for any fan of fantasy adventure. Series readers will delight in returning to the rich universe of Maradaine.” – Publishers Weekly<\/a><\/p>\n “It has the top-notch characterisation and complex, believable world we\u2019ve come to know and love, backed up by a strongly realised and compelling narrative. Go get it \u2013 you won\u2019t regret it.” – SF&F Reviews<\/a><\/p>\n I’m thrilled that this latest Maradaine adventure is hitting the world.\u00a0 And next year, we’ll have\u00a0The Fenmere Job<\/strong><\/em> (<\/em>Asti and Verci Rynax cross paths with the Thorn!) and\u00a0People of the City<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0<\/em>(Dayne and Jerinne with the Thorn, Minox & Satrine, Asti & Verci!\u00a0 Full madness).\u00a0 Both of these books I am really proud of, and I hope it all lives up to the prediction in this review<\/a> that Maradaine deserves serious consideration for the Best Series Hugo Award.<\/p>\n
