#SampleSunday for Valentine's
I joined in with Tweeting #samplesunday when it launched back in December, and over the latter weeks have been serialising the opening chapters of Torc of Moonlight. But I'm getting close to the... er...rock 'n' roll... and as I have an open blog I decided to switch tack.
What better novel to switch to on (almost) Valentine's Day but an historical novel full of romance and adventure?
Beneath The Shining Mountains is set c.1830s on the northern plains in what would become the Wyoming/Montana area and follows a tight-kit community of Apsaroke, their loves, politics and an escalating resentment.
Although it was not available in the USA, it sold 30k copies in paper under a different title, but is now available to a new readership as an all-formats ebook. I'm surprised how well it's doing, as it's not a novel I've been promoting. Perhaps, ironically, that's the key.
The first part of the opening chapter is available on lindaacaster.blogspot.com. Drop by if you have time.
