Hello All,

I'd love to have some reviews of my novel Low Time in Arcadia posted at my author page: https://www.amazon.com/author/redden_...

Contact me at writerlyways@gmail.com and I can send it to you as a pdf, or in mobi format.

Synopsis:

Low Time in Arcadia is the story of Lilly "Lil Bit" Dalton who, looking back on life, recounts the years between the ages of ten and thirteen spent in the care of the woman she considers to be her grandmother, "Bubbah," and this woman's alcoholic son, Bobby. The novel chronicles Lil Bit’s initial struggle to reunite with her mother “Violet,” then her resignation at having to make the best of a situation at times both comic and heartbreaking. The story unfolds in the segregated, yet highly colorful waterway community of Arcadia, Florida, in the early 1950s.

Thanks,
Redden!

Hi! I am looking for people to review my debut novel 'Angels & Warriors, The Awakening'. You can read the first two chapters here: http://www.goodreads.com/story/show/3...


In the novel, “Angels & Warriors, The Awakening,” author Dawn Tevy introduces you to characters that are funny, loving, and artfully scheming…


Our heroin, Lady Tynae, finds herself in a precarious situation when she is hunted down by those she most trusts. In a single heartbeat her fairly simple life becomes incredibly complicated. Finding herself in a new world full of magic, dragons, and old friends Tynae soon discovers nothing in her life was ever as it appeared.

The vivid scenes and descriptive dialogue will transport you to another place. This spectacular fantasy world is set in a time and land that has slowly faded into the haziness of legend and lore.

Between discovering her new world and falling in love, Tynae must uncover what lies at her very core. She is accomplished with swords, an expert marksman, and she even knows how to bring a full grown man to his knees, but is she the ‘Chosen One’?

I'm still trying to get more reviews for my book, The Origins of Disgust, Self-Hatred, and Hostility. Whatever format you prefer is available (except audio). Print copies can only be mailed within the US.

Set in the underbellies of Southern California during the 1980s, this shocking story focuses on the life of a young runaway named Mike Hollister, the criminal-minded surrogate family who molds him, and the lucrative, illegal operations he accepts as the norm. At seventeen years old, Mike abandons his co-horts of crime in the suburbs for the drug infested canyons and urine drenched underpasses of downtown. In the filth and disparity of the homeless, intravenous drug addicts, prostitutes, and the mentally ill, he devises one of the most original, and highly profitable, illegal money making schemes ever. Even though Mike may be the most street-wise kid around, he can't predict the unforeseen disasters his operation will produce in the most brutal of manners.

The Last Best Thing

Hello!

I, too, am gathering reviews for my recently published novella, "The Last Best Thing." Here's a taste:


“What started out 50 years ago as an annual party evolved into a yearly reunion and then a way of life. It’s sort of like a geriatric Big Chill.”

Sam and Sarah are the elderly owners of a farm in central Iowa that turns into a private retirement community when it also becomes home to a disabled friend, a destitute neighbor and her daughter, and an expatriate artist. Together, this close-knit group confronts the hardships and disappointments of age and infirmity with courage, humanity and humor.

But beneath the surface, this rustic “home away from the old folks’ home” is not everything it seems. One of its inhabitants is a killer. Another is her victim.

How far will these lifelong friends go to help each other when their way of life is threatened? Witness what loyalty and sacrifice really mean to this unlikely group of people gathered together under one roof.


If this whets your literary appetite, please feel free to read more on my website http://KateSebeny.com and contact me for a digital edition at katesebeny@gmail.com

Thank you for your attention and happy reading! ~Kate

Of Woodbridge and Hedgely: A Historical Fiction Novel Set in England's Regency Era

I've got a relatively small niche book here that is litfic + historical fic + a dash of romance. I'll leave the details below, but I encourage reviewers to read my blog entry entitled 'Message to Potential Reviewers'. Contact me either through posting on my blog or my email woodbridge@hiltonheadadventurer.com [I probably won't see you if you post here.]

Blog Entry for reviewers: http://www.woodbridgeandhedgely.com/?...

Book Description:
Of Woodbridge and Hedgely is a literary examination of the phenomenon of science denial, set in the 1820’s countryside of Gloucester, England. The Industrial Revolution has begun to saturate country, but there are still quaint and naïve pockets like these binary towns whose inhabitants are resistant to change. Alas, the enlightenment is brought before them when a young bachelor and engineer, Thomas Winter – the son of a wealthy industrialist – moves into the area with the intention of applying science to their fields to produce higher crop yields. Further, their local Anglican parson, Jonathan Moore, begins a series of science lectures dedicated to the memory of his recently departed brother, in which the subjects of deep time, uniformitarianism, and plutonism, formulated by pioneering geologist James Hutton, are introduced alongside pre-Darwinian evolution. Such is taken rather poorly by the towns' Particular Baptists, led by the preacher George Edwards and funded by the recently wealthy Henry Wyatt, who conspire against these scientific men by way of news propaganda, the latter motivated by romantic adversity.

Thanks,
