It harks back more to the later dross of the Ragnar series than the excellence of The Emperor's Gift. I'm just over half way through. Someone please tell me it's worth continuing. ![]() ![]() |

Maybe authors should be paid for word count as well as sales. Might reduce the number of short stories ;) Quote:

I think you overestimate how much input the average author has with their publishers.

This is not accepted at this site. In terms of slaps on the wrist each has a mystically value. The copyright infringement slap is almost a temp ban all by itself. The site takes this kind of issue that seriously. |

Angel of Blood | All gone. Got to wait for the arbitrary date BL will set before it comes on paperback sale/ebook release or comes up on the Vault |
