Oh yes. The sequel has been on my wish list ever since I read the first book

Don't get me wrong the first book stands alone fine as it is, but there's definitely room for a sequel.

Thank you so much!! Your kind words give me the warm fuzzies.

I'm working on the sequel now, in fact. Just taking a break for some breakfast and forum-browsing, then back to it.

Darkiss, on his review blog Darkiss reads, wrote this about The Kinshield Legacy:

"Well written and highly entertaining, you are taken on an adrenalin fuelled roller-coaster ride of excitement and exhilaration. K.C. May is well worth adding to your fantasy collection and will sit comfortably beside David Eddings, Raymond E. Feist and Stephen Donaldson."

Wow - if you can sit comfortably next to Stephen Donaldson, it looks like I'm in for a good read. Great compliment.

Thanks! Yes, that one took me quite by surprise! (In a very VERY pleasant way, of course)

Got a new blogger review this week:

"The story is wholly interesting and by the time you get to the end you realize that although it doesn’t go out of its way to add much new to the arena, it is definitely entertaining. That is really all I ask for out of this sort of classical high fantasy book. Entertainment plain and simple. You will get that with THE KINSHIELD LEGACY in spades."

Hey there KCMay,

Great to see how well the Kingshield is doing and I see you've gone for a completely different cover for the Venom of the Vipers!

Boy I miss out on so many things when I take a leave!

Paul.

Because I was having a new cover made for the sequel, I decided to update the cover of Kinshield AGAIN! Hehehehe. Here's the new one:

MrPLD · 08-05-2011, 11:22 AM

Aww... I have to say I did like the original one (?) because it was very clear and readable due to its brightness - that said I can "feel" that the new cover has pushed more into the "Published" cover style and as such should work well, Whom ever does your covers does have a good eye for the essential elements to portray the right sort of style, does well in stopping people thinking "Indie"

kcmay · 08-05-2011, 03:10 PM

Every cover is better than the one before! hahahaha! I love this one much more than the previous, which I loved WAY more than the original.

This one doesn't say "indie" at all.
