The View From Monday - October 21, 2013

Happy Monday! Only 10 days until Halloween. It's finally become chilly here. There is frost on the lawns and a distinct nip in the air. I'm reading The Garden of Stone by Mark T. Barnes. This is the first novel in the Echoes of Empire series. The 2nd novel, The Obsidian Heart, was out last week. I'm really enjoying the lush world building. More on this when I'm done reading.

I did finish Prodigal Son (Truthseers 1) by Debra Mullins. I really enjoyed how Mullins is using the myth of Atlantis. The female lead, Cara McGaffigan, didn't do much for me. She became a stronger character as the novel went on, but I believe that she was not fully developed and was a bit one dimensional for me. The male lead, Rafe Montana, and his family were much more interesting. All in all it was a good story and I will continue reading this series. More on this in a longer review soon.

2013 Debut Author Challenge Cover Wars - October 2013


It's time for the 2013 Debut Author Challenge Cover Wars for October 2013!





Since Cover Wars was so much fun as part of the 2012 Debut Author Challenge, we're doing it again for the 2013 Debut Author Challenge. Each month you will be able to vote for your favorite cover from each month's debut novels. At the end of the year the 12 monthly winners will be pitted against each other to choose the 2013 Debut Novel Cover of the Year. Please note that a debut novel cover is eligible in the month in which the novel is released in the US. Cover artist/illustrator information is provided when I have it.

I'm using Blogger's poll widget because it's easier for everyone. I'll keep an eye on the poll for anomalies.
