More five star book reviews for Second Sight!

24 Aug

The new fantasy novel Second Sight seems to be making an impact on Goodreads.

Cynde Mitchell just rated it: 5 of 5 stars I really enjoyed this novel. it reminds me a lot of the novels by Katherine Kurtz-Deryni books. I’d like to read the first one too. It was a great read and easily read. The book was extremely well written and engrossing!!!

The second review comes from my good old dad. He is super-intelligent and has read most of the books in the library, so I’m chuffed as all hell that he likes the story. A big part of Twardy Zarost’s character comes from him. He kept me guessing all my childhood … was he telling the truth, or winding me up? I think he’s telling the truth here … or is he?

Mike Hamerton rated it: 5 of 5 stars It’s never too late to try something new. Forget your idea that this book is about fiery dragons, strange beasts , towering mountains or lightning strikes. When you’ve read it you will be looking for the next one! It isn’t fantasy, it’s fantastic!


 

Free books for Goodreads winners!

22 Jul

I’ve had a fantastic response from the community of readers on Goodreads. I started a competition two weeks ago, to spread the word about the upcoming release of new fantasy novel Second Sight. Today was the draw, and 812 people entered! Seems like everyone wants a copy. Five lucky winners will soon have their free books.

It’s a great system … I (hopefully) get some enthusiastic reviews of the book to help the publicity, and readers get the kind of books they are interested in.

If you’re not already on Goodreads, why don’t you sign up? It’s a simple process and is free. Once you’re in, you’re looking for something like my giveaway below (the draw is over, but it will take you through to the site and you can start from there).
