Tales from the Asylum
Huge thanks to Timy from RockStarlit Book Asylum for giving me the opportunity to participate in the fun "Tales from the Asylum" blog feature!
I had a lot of fun writing a short scene about Dorakion, one of the minor characters in Children of the Dead City.

is 37% done with The Eagle's Flight: Amazing so far, even the second time reading it. The author uses a third person perspective that doesn't delve into the character's emotions. It's simply described as if we were watching this in a movie and so we'll see little things that will hint at their emotions. At the same time I feel for these characters much more than I often feel in books where we get to hear the characters' thoughts in great detail!
