Lord Talon's Revenge (a Giant's tale later)
Posted: Mon Aug 06, 2012 9:00 pm
Hail, Rockbrothers and Rocksisters, and people of the Land! I've been away a long time, but wanted to reconnect with Kevin's Watch as I get ready for the climactic release of THE LAST DARK. I've missed having SRD fans to share the anticipation with. Other than that . . . life happened, depression happened, and I hid my face from the Watch because I doubted my welcome. I hope I didn't need to doubt. It feels like I've been away since the Viles built the Lost Deep.
I'm making this post in The Hall of Gifts because I have a gift to offer you all. Years ago, at the first Elohimfest, I circulated a manuscript copy of a tale of mine called LORD TALON'S REVENGE. Duchess of Malfi was one who thought highly of it. Alas, I did not connect with Tor at that time; the editor I was dealing with requested another manuscript, sat on it for three solid years, and when I pressed him for a decision, rejected it (as far as I can tell) sight unseen. I have since heard from other writers that this editor is, shall we say, less than diligent in that aspect of his work.
I then put the manuscript aside for a long time, but have now revived and revised it for an experiment in self-publishing. It is now available on Smashwords, and at the moment, you can download it for free with a coupon code. Here's where you can find the book:
Lord Talon's Revenge:
A Comedy of Greed, War, Hatred, Betrayal, and Other Desirable Things

I hope some of you will accept this gift for the sake of the friendship the Watch has borne me in years past.
