Finding a New Book to Read

The Mad Librarian

Looking for a good book for the weekend? My review of Agatha H, Girl Genius books didn’t have you clicking the ‘buy’ button?

I’m going to suggest a couple of places where you can go and find cheap, good reads, and even easier, you can sign up for daily emails of recommendations so you never have to click over to a site when you happen to remember it. I found them when I was looking for places to use as advertisement of my own work, but I’d be remiss in not passing them on to all of you, as well.

The Fussy Librarian is one, which seems to have a lot of books under a dollar, and a good selection of genres you can choose from, so you’re only getting suggestions of books you might actually want to read.

EbookHounds is the other, with a cute puppy who will ‘fetch’ you your next read. I really like the way they jury their books – you have to be a good book to make it onto their shelves. So if you’re looking for quality more than quantity, I’d recommend seeing what Bailey can fetch for you.

Don’t worry too much about overlap between them, there are a lot of books out there, and with that in mind, you can choose to be choosy (now, what Dr Seuss is that from?)

Looking for the book I have on sale? Pixie Noir is $0.99 for one more day, then $2.99 for two days, before returning to the usual price. I’m contemplating a sale on Trickster Noir, as well, to celebrate the release of Dragon Noir. What say you all?

Pixie Noir (Pixie for Hire Book 1) (Kindle Edition)
By (author): Cedar Sanderson



You can't keep a tough Pixie down…

Lom is a bounty hunter, paid to bring magical creatures of all descriptions back Underhill, to prevent war with humans should they discover the strangers amongst them. Bella is about to find out she's a real life fairy princess, but all she wants to do is live peacefully in Alaska, where the biggest problems are hungry grizzly bears. He has to bring her in. It's nothing personal, it's his job…

"They had almost had me, that once. I’d been young and foolish, trying to do something heroic, of course. I wouldn’t do that again anytime soon. Now, I work for duty, but nothing more than is necessary to fulfill the family debt. I get paid, which makes me a bounty hunter, but she's about to teach me about honor. Like all lessons, this one was going to hurt. Fortunately, I have a good gun to fill my hand, and if I have to go, she has been good to look at."

Dave Freer, author of Dog and Dragon, The Forlorn, and many others, says: ""To those of you who thought there was nothing new worth reading in Fantasy: Cedar Sanderson’s Pixie Noir proves that you are wrong. The author plainly knows and loves her setting and characters, and this carries through to the reader. The pace picks up throughout, so save this book for a weekend, or you’ll be complaining about a lack of sleep at work. A very good read!"
