The wonderfully gifted Barb Hendee has her latest book coming out today. Check it out and visit Barb’s website www.barbhendee.org for contest details (freebies, you say?? I’m there!) And here is the gorgeous cover.
I have a story, Snakeskin, coming out in the anthology KICKING IT on December 3, 2013. Now here is the best part: it’s a Trixa story set ten years before Trick of the Light and The Grimrose Path. That means that you get to see a more brash and careless Trixa, an adorably grumpy and mildly homicidal Leo/Loki, and, best of all, how Trixa first met and took Zeke and Griffin, rabid little teenagers that they were, in off the streets. And you know we love the damaged and fierce dynamic that is Griffin and Zeke. Do check it out, and I am very fond of the cover as in the beginning of Snakeskin, Trixa is wearing boots exactly like those when Leo...

And for Rob’s Reaver’s everywhere: a SLASHBACK (3/5/13) excerpt. Enjoy. Slashback Chapter 1 Twelve Years Ago Niko “Our neighbor is a serial killer.” It was that kind of day. There had been tutoring no-necked football players lacking enough in brain cells that I was surprised they didn’t have calluses on their knuckles from walking on them. It would’ve gone well with their gorilla grunting. Following that had been the food poisoning caused by a casserole brought in by Mrs. Dumpfries. The teacher’s lounge had been liberally labeled a biohazard. The color of which is not orange like they tell you, but the bile green of non-stop vomiting. I stood witness to that. I’d gone...
And here is the UK cover to Slashback (which hopefully means to all UK fans that Slashback–Cal 8 will be on your shelves at the same time it comes out here in the US. Finally, no wait for you!) It’s a very nice cover. Yes, it’s not Chris McGrath, but there can be only one true Art God in a generation. And I do like that ‘urban-distressed’ look on the title font. Very cool.
