Win a copy of Mythica!
Recently the good folks at Arrowstorm Entertainment were kind enough to give me a sneak peek at their latest production, Mythica: A Quest for Heroes. You can read my review of it here, and an interview with two of the stars here.
Short version: I found it very enjoyable, with a terrific main character (played with full-on commitment by Melanie Stone), and as the first film of a series, it sets things up nicely. Moreover, it offers two strong female characters (Stone and Nicola Posener) who drive the action and motivate the plot without devolving into cliche or romance.
Now Arrowstorm has slipped me five copies of Mythica to give away. If I’ve piqued your interest, then just leave a comment below telling me about your favorite fantasy heroine for a chance to win one of these. Deadline is Sunday, February 14 at midnight.

I've always been partial to the Jirel of Joiry stories by C.L. Moore.

They were influenced by Howard and Lovecraft, but had a more realistic touch along with a lyrical flair.
