Xenolith: Contemporary Fantasy - Page 4

ASparrow · 11-13-2009, 05:17 AM

FYI, the sequel's at 65,000 words right now. Nowhere near done, but it looks like it will end up a little bit shorter than Xenolith, and almost as twisty but a little more character-driven. Things are pointing towards a third book, though I don't want to think about that too much right now.

Thanks for downloading, y'all. It's nice to be read.

I've made some improvements in formatting and such, so anyone who's downloaded but hasn't read Xenolith yet should re-download before they read (there's no charge).

The pre-November versions of Xenolith were plagued with copy-edit issues. The new version is pretty sparkly thanks to a certain sharp-eyed member of this board ('weedfreak'). Changes since Oct. 31 fix only spacing and indents and such.

Just downloaded a copy. Thanks!

Got it. Thank you VERY much. It is wonderful to be able to read a new author....at such a great price!

Here is hoping it will become a long relationship...

Here's a new review excerpt:

I must admit, when I first started reading this book, I was a little apprehensive. Often, I thought new and un-spoken for writers can be quick to dull and annoy, much like one of the books I had to review earlier was...

On to the review:

This book is a fantasy, yet not quite a fantasy. The book is littered with humans, their politics, cultural differences and common human error in judgement. yet, the concept of parallel universe, while not new, is artfully re-produced and introduced in this book that makes all the relationships between humans, their loyalties and cultures so much more complex, twisted and wonderful.

It's been a while where I stopped breathing for the main character, felt my heart race in comprehension of what might be happening next and swore out loud when I realise it's (yet another!!!) cliffhanger. so please, let me know what happened next SOON!

Even if you're normally averse to fantasy, this one might surprise you.

It's not very 'fantastic,' but in a good way.
