Some good books release today!

Lynn Viehl's Stay the Night, the 'last' of her Darkyn books, and Robin's story. I was lucky enough to get to read an advanced copy, and I gave a non-spoilery review here.

jimhines releases the first book in his fairy tale based series, The Stepsister Scheme, also available on Kindle. I've been excited to read this one for months - sometimes it feels like years! I love fairy tales, retold fairy tales, and, as I'm betting is the case here, fairy tales turned backwards and upside down and retold in a refreshing and new way. dragonsinger, I know you like fairy tales as well - I've read the first chapter and definitely recommend this one!

(Also, the third book in his very entertaining Goblin series, Goblin War is released in ebook form today. Another one for me to buy on Kindle!)

Also, not to be left out, Plum Spooky released today, but as has been the habit for Janet Evanovich's books, not for the Kindle as yet.

In other book news, Orbit is introducing a $1 ebook every month, the idea being to bring readers together with new authors they might not have read before. I went ahead and bought this month's book, The Way of Shadows by Brent Weeks. I mean, why not? It might be a great fantasy series, and I haven't tried it yet.

So, is it possible to throw in "Stay the Night" in to that book box now that it's legally out?

I think my Mom has it currently...I'll be getting it back from her when I see her this weekend, I expect, but that'll be long after the box has gone out. I'll pop it in the mail when I get it back, though!

No worries - just put me on the list! :)
