Thus: Here Be Spoilers (for both Book 5 and for Book 6).Ĭontinue reading → 1 Comment Posted in Fantasy Tagged Ilona Andrews, Kate Daniels, lois mcmaster bujold, Megan Whalen Turner, Patricia Briggs, Robin McKinley Gunmetal Magic by Ilona Andrews However… the chapter raises some concerns for me. I will just have to re-read the four that already exist.)Īnyway, this is all a long wind up to letting you guys know that Ilona Andrews has the first chapter of her next book up! This is book 6 is the Kate Daniels series, Magic Rises, due out on July 30, 2013. Megan Whalen Turner has possibly the least active author’s website I’ve seen, and yet I still check back because, by god, if there’s going to be another book in series, I will start stalking bookstores and possibly publisher’s warehouses in the hopes of getting to it just that much sooner. But I still like to check up on her, periodically, to see if maybe there will be a sequel to Sunshine at some point, or if any of her more recent books look good.

I love her early work ( The Blue Sword, The Hero and the Crown, and Beauty) and feel like Sunshine was her absolute Best Book Ever! Ever since, it’s been just kind of down hill. Robin McKinely has a decent website, although I’m generally somewhat disappointed in her. Ilona Andrews is still very active on social media, including their own website, AND posts regular free stuff. Patricia Briggs is pretty good with her website, although she’s gotten somewhat less active on it as her career has taken off. But she does actively support fanfiction, which I appreciate. Lois McMaster Bujold doesn’t tend to update her website very much, alas. Periodically I like to drop by the websites of my favorite authors to see when their next books are coming out and if they have anything new and interesting up. 1 Comment Posted in Fantasy Tagged Ilona Andrews, Kate Daniels Stalking Authors, the Ilona Andrews edition So, if you enjoy the Kate Daniels’ series: here’s a “Merry Christmas!” from Ilona Andrews. It’s quite fun and while I recognize several of the snippets from having been posted individually on prior occasions, other snippets I don’t recognize at all. The Christmas present is a collection of short snippets retelling pivotal moments in the Kate Daniels books from Curran’s point of view. Her Kate Daniels series is all told from the point of view of Kate Daniels, but has Curran, the Lord of the Beasts and Kate’s love interest, as another main character. Ilona Andrews is one of my favorite authors currently writing and she has quite an active website, in which she posts regular snippets of stories, and, more to the point, posts Christmas presents to her fans. For those of you crazy people out there who don’t obsessively check in on their favorite author’s websites, we at Bibliotherapy here for you!
