So yesterday I posted about Jill Williamson being up for the Christy Award.
You can find out more about Jill at her website or her Amazon page, where I lifted the opening sentences of her bio to whet your appetite:
“Jill was raised in rural Alaska. Alone with her thoughts and the moose, daydreaming was a favorite pastime. As was reading…”
And now she’s turned her passion for reading into a passion for writing, and a fine job she’s done of it. Here’s her latest book cover from Marcher Lord Press:
You can get a copy at Amazon or at the Marcher Lord site.
And if you’re wondering just how good this book is, here’s a review about Book One:
“This thoroughly entertaining and smart tale will appeal to fans of Donita K. Paul and J.R.R. Tolkien. Highly recommended for CF and fantasy collections.” —Library Journal
And the praise continues for Book Two:
“The second installment of the Blood of Kings series will thrill, surprise, and delight readers just as much as the first. With stellar craftsmanship, the author continues to thrust her characters into a myriad of plot-driven obstacles that will have readers biting their nails late into the night.”
—Christian Miles (Amazon review)
With her first book up for a Christy and her second garnering well-deserved praise, you’ll want to grab a copy quickly before they all sell out. And if you want to get an autographed copy, you can get one at Jill’s website.
Wow! Thanks for posting this, Laurie! You must have told some WPR people, too, because I got some comments from them on my site. 🙂
