Wytchfire - kind of "Game of Thrones" meets "The X-Men"

[Michael]

Hi, everyone! My name’s Michael Meyerhofer. I’m a fantasy author, contemporary poet, and History Channel addict (“Ancient Aliens” notwithstanding). My fantasy novel, Wytchfire, was just published. Book One in a trilogy, set in a world of magic and murder, it’s the story of an orphan/gravedigger who wanted to be a knight but… yeah, lots of important things go terribly wrong.

Wytchfire

From the back cover: "In a land haunted by the legacy of dead dragons, Rowen Locke has been many things: orphan, gravedigger, mercenary. All he ever wanted was to become a Knight of Crane and wield a kingsteel sword against the kind of grown horrors his childhood knows all too well. But that dream crumbled--replaced by a new nightmare. War is overrunning the realms, an unprecedented duel of desire and revenge, steel and sorcery. And for one disgraced man who would be a knight, in a world where no one is blameless, the time has come to decide which side he's on."

Hello, fellow readers! I thought I'd pass on a few pieces of good news re: my dark fantasy novel, Wytchfire. First, the book won the post-publication Whirling Prize from the Kellogg Writers Series, sponsored by the University of Indianapolis!

Second, I found out a couple days ago that it was also nominated for a Readers' Choice Award by the fine folks at BigAl and the Pals. Click here if you feel like voting, which enters you into a drawing for a $75 Amazon gift card. No hard feelings if you don't vote for me. ;)

Third, the sequel, Knightswrath, will be released this summer. It's all finished (as is a rough draft of the trilogy's conclusion), just waiting on a little formatting and the cover art.

So, yeah. My inner Link is pleased.
