Book review and…

To check the book blurb, click on the cover, I'll let the BuyPage do the talk.

I guess this can be considered a paranormal romance, but instead of vampires or werewolves, we have gypsy mythology, which is refreshing (did I mention how tired I am of vampires – unless they have long dark hair and are called Jorick – and even more of werewolves?). So kudos to that. I don't like first person narrators either, unless they possess Pearl's British humor – OK, my way of saying I liked the voice of this particular book.

I take out one star (so that's 4/5, if you really want to count them) because it's a small publisher and it should have provided with copy-editing. I wouldn't have mentioned the typos if it were an indie author, but as it's one reason to look for a traditional publisher, they should at least provide something besides cover and packaging, shouldn't they?

Anyway, recommended reading for paranormal romance readers, by an author I met though Six Sentence Sunday.

And… the author was unavailable for an interview, so in spite of the lack of "resounding YES" to yesterday's post, considering also the fact that the above mentioned books also deals with souls (and reincarnation), I thought I'd share the blurb for First Sci-fi Baby… feel free to comment.

Title: Soul Stealers

Genre: sci-fi (romance) novella

Blurb: Planet Earth, one century from now. Population has dropped under two billion and mankind works for the well-being of the planet, backed up by computers and eco-friendly energy. But there are still people who feel greed, anger, envy and miss something they cannot have.

Beth is a virtual director specializing in 20th century movie stars whose latest muse is the hologram of Keanu Reeves. Until the soul stealers make her meet a flesh and blook man who looks exactly like her latest virtual star, but is even more damaged than she is. Will they overcome their blocks and differences to build a real relationship?

Good? Bad? Awful? So-so? Let me know, thank you! :-)
