Nie jest to nic nadzwyczajnego, ale zdecydowanie mnie nie zawiodła - to plus. A słyszałem, że kolejne części są jeszcze lepsze.
To typowe polskie urban fantasy o wiedźmach. Może jest trochę delikatniejsze pod kątem żartów i opowieści, ale kreuje ciekawą historię. I nie chodzi mi o fabułę - ta jest dobra, choć przewidywalna. Na pewno warto się zainteresować, bo czuć, że ci bohaterowie mają potencjał.
"Hot sauce is tasty, but," our guide began but didn't finish because they tumbled off the boat.
They gave a brief yelp before a splash. A life-preserver was tossed in after, vanishing into the darkness too.
"I guess I've been promoted," chuckled the junior guide, bravely, moving away from the taffrail," But, as my colleague was saying, hot sauce doesn't go in eyes except in emergencies."
Pleased to announce this is up for preorder. It's set in 1970, there's magic and gods and drugs and queer romance, and I did actually write a couple of songs for the Macbeth musical. It's a direct sequel to Dionysus in Wisconsin, so if you haven't read that weird fever dream yet, now is a good time to check it out.
I don't remember if I posted this or not! If you have been interested in my novel Dionysus in Wisconsin but not sure you want to pull the trigger on a new writer, you can watch/hear me read the first chapter here while wearing a hand-appliqued jacket that includes a Dia de los Muertos skull patch:
The Green Man's Quarry is now available in your preferred format from a wide range of vendors. Now you can find out if a black cat crossing Dan Mackmain's path is good or bad luck - and for whom...
Meet Alejandro... With the help of the ancestors, can he stop danger in its tracks?
The ebook of my witchy, queer, poly, Samhain/Dia de Los Muertos novel By Dark is either free or .99 through the end of October!
Enjoy!

If you need guidance, why not seek out the oracle in his small downtown shop? His advice might be exactly what you need... The 10th in my Men of Urban Fantasy Coloring Book, coming next month!
If you like urban fantasy that is charming, intelligent, and fun, you might like Dionysus in Wisconsin. Reviewers have said "the magic swirling around [the characters] is fascinating and scary" and that it "[combines]...humor...tense action scenes, and beautiful romantic chemistry."
This October, our own Clare Dugmore is launching a brand new #UrbanFantasy / #ParanormalRomance series on #Ream called The Order of the Ancile. Ream is a platform that lets you subscribe to an author to read their serialized novels, and Clare is currently working on two: SEEKING THE TRUTH and WINGS, WITCHES, AND WONDER. When these serialized novels are completed, we will be publishing the ebook and paperback editions. Check it out! https://reamstories.com/claredugmore/public
#WritersCoffeeClub 1: Intro: Shameless self-promotion. What's your WIP? What's it about?
My WIP's in early stages (still building the world, characters, etc.) and has no title yet. It's an #UrbanFantasy set in #SanFrancisco, about people who can hear the voice of the City, and who it teaches to do magic. It's about the life and magic of cities, and how San Francisco is at a crossroads, and how people affect the future by our choices in every moment.
#WritersCoffeeClub 31: Does your work include any horror elements? What's the most frightening thing you've written?
I have plans for one of the villains to do some things that are pretty creepy, but I'm trying to be very careful of the usual "ways creepy guys violate other people" tropes. Also, I'm writing #UrbanFantasy, not horror, so I do want to avoid suddenly hitting readers with a level of scariness that they hadn't planned on signing up for.
Today's spec fic release: BL Jones' MM urban fantasy Drowning in Danger:
Sixteen years ago, Alex Nova defied the impossible and shook the world to its core. He made children into superhumans and, in doing so, made a villain out of himself. At age twenty, Rex Nova took the consequences...
Je ne suis pas loin de la fin de Le Dernier magicien, de Robin Hobb C’est un roman #urbanfantasy dans lequel on se plonge très rapidement. On est très loin du côté spectaculaire de l’Assassin royal. C’est beaucoup plus simple, presque intime. #vendredilecture#fantasy#fantastique#Mastolivre
I've been reading up on #ChangelingTheDreaming lore for my #HunterTheReckoning campaign, and whose fucking idea was it to make the entire setting run on fridge horror? Stg this happy fairy game is going to give me nightmares tonight the way #vtm never could
You see, I have this Wolf Shifter series out which is basically adventure/romance (with a HEA) and which follows different members of a family of Wolves (and a pack).
I really dislike the whole Alpha trope, so you won't find anything like that in them. My characters also refused to be watched in bed, so it's not steamy.
