An Analysis of Clockwork Dagger’s First Scene

I was surprised and delighted to see The Clockwork Dagger featured on Tor.com today. This time, Michael R. Underwood analyzed the first scene of my book to show how and why it successfully hooked him.

As a reader, I love these sorts of insights into books I’ve already read. I usually find myself nodding as I come to some new understanding about the novel. Now, to have this kind of analysis done to my own book? I kinda geeked out. It’s just so cool.

You can still read the full first chapter over on Tor as well! Maybe it’ll hook you, if it hasn’t already.
