You should probably read Hunters before reading "Awake," but you don't need to have read Prophet. What I'm Up To in Feb, This is my monthly summary of everything I've done and everything I'm doing.

I podcast every week on Patreon. My chatter and my new fiction is available there. If you're a listener of the old podcast, I don't want you to be blindsided. I posted an episode about it, but if you wait for weeks or months to listen, it might be gone by the time you get around to it. So here's your heads up. Listen to the podcast for more details.

Grab anything you want out of that. Anyone who knows me in real life knows how I feel about that. However, for me artistically and personally, it was a pretty great year! I paid off my anesthesia school loan this December after a sustained push beginning in July of Monthly Review of What I'm up To. You'd think this was my New Year's Post, right?

I've spoken to multiple fans recently who are confused about what I've released or where to keep track of it. I've encountered enthusiastic fans who are, nevertheless, surprised to learn that I've done anything since Cowry Catchers. People who follow me on various social media platforms miss this or that announcement because I either didn't get around to posting it there or the post just flew by in their media stream.

It's frustrating for me and for you guys. Taking Tricks - a Story About Silas. Silas Ackleby is an year-old airship sailor, currently sleeping in the woods as he waits for the airships to begin their spring hiring. He's had a run-in with a pickpocket, leaving him with barely enough coin to gamble for his breakfast. Fortunately, Silas rarely loses a card game. He's displeased, however, to find that the only game going involves a partner, chosen by random drawing.

He's even more displeased when his partner turns out to. The Quest for the Perfect Covers. Since the beginning of the year, I have been trying to decide how to re-do my adult fantasy book covers. That is the single biggest problem. Beyond that, I want the Refugees trilogy branded the same way as the Cowry Catchers series. They need to look like they go together.

And, of course, each chapter continues with an excerpt from his various books. Flames had a lot more action in it than Embers did, but that's understandable. It's the superhero movie problem I won't judge Embers too harshly because of that I want to bludgeon the way this book ended.

That was low, book. You can't just end there.

There should be a law against that kind of cliffhanger. However, I already went out and bought the final three books in the series. Your cliffhangers have no power over me now, books!!!

I really loved this one and am looking forward to Ashes. Also, I really like the writing in this book, more than in Embers. It reads smoother and the exposition feels more natural, whereas in Embers the expositional asides came across as kind of awkward to me. So I'm enjoying Flames even more than I did Embers which was quite a bit , because of the great story plu Upon finishing - damn, that was a well-done cliffhangery ending to the book!

So I'm enjoying Flames even more than I did Embers which was quite a bit , because of the great story plus enjoying the writing style more. He's such a memorable, well developed character. Like the first book, I got sucked into this richly develop a fantasy world like none before. I feel like I know and love these wonderful characters and I'm glad to be privileged to follow their adventures.

The author displays some serious storytelling talents with a flair for the dramatic and good pacing. The way she build her fantasy world with short samples from an illegal guide book at the beginning of every chapter is perfect and effective without being overbearing. Really, I have nothing Like the first book, I got sucked into this richly develop a fantasy world like none before.

Really, I have nothing bad to say about this series, so far everything is perfect: Apr 15, Scot rated it really liked it. Book two in this fascinating fantasy world of shelts half human, half animal that allows us to reflect on complex power dynamic social systems, how false religions can be used to oppress the masses, and--in an intriguing development I didn't see coming--sensitivity for those sexually abused is called for even as acceptance for varying sexual orientations is encouraged.

This is a five part serie Silveo and Gerard, in service to the High Priestess, search for Gwain, the leader of the Resistance. This is a five part series, and I lucked into the first two books for free. But I am so confidant I'll want to spend as much time as I can in this alternate world, as the author has evoked its complexities in such a compelling manner, that I am going to opt for the five-in-one larger all at once Kindle download for a cheaper price.

If you like the world of Game of Thrones and are seeking out another such fantasy series to savor, my advice is that this is good enough that you should just get the all five at once option, as once you get into it, you won't want to stop before you must, either.

When Abigail Hilton flopped, gasping, onto the beach of a tiny, unnamed key off the Florida coast, she was grateful that her audience included only a handful of sea gulls, a raccoon, and one very surprised panther.
