It's a bit Indiana Jones meets Da Vinci code, with Arthurian artifacts.
...which is unfortunate, because other than perhaps Nazgul (coincidence in the root word?), who's a better bad guy than Nazis?!
That said...I think that's a lovely (and highly flattering) characterization. :)
I may have to tweak your description a bit, make it punchier. That was my job many moons ago at the publishing house I used to work for before the reorganization that made my job disappear.
I'd welcome and appreciate your suggestions, Diane! I suspect you'd have some good ones...
(I'm a former publishing wonk as well, though it's been 10 years since I worked in publishing...I was in sales and marketing at what was then Time Warner Book Group (now Hachette))...
I did 6 years with Harlequin Books, got laid off in 2006.
Give me a few days to lose this allergy-induced headache and I will send you a blurb.
Ugh...that does NOT sound like fun. I think everyone I know is sick and/or beset by allergies right now...it's just such a magical time! At any rate, I'll look forward to your undoubtedly magical blurbage...
Thanks so much it sounds good i'll have to read it so time and tell u what i think
I'd be delighted if you do, Sam--I'll look forward to it! :)
