I haven’t done a LOL book in ages. Heck, a good chunk of my readers probably found me after I stopped doing ‘em. But what can I say — I saw this cover, and was struck by inspiration. The book is Day of the Minotaur, by Thomas Burnett Swann.
The full LOL Book archives are available via http://jimhines.livejournal.com/tag/lol • Seanan McGuire (of Rosemary and Rue fame) has drawn a nifty promo piece for The Mermaid’s Madness. Click here to see her pretty little dead ghoul mermaid in all her glory. • Tomorrow (9/26) from 11 am - 7 pm I’ll be at the Durand Fantasy Expo. Details available on the Facebook page or on MySpace. Lots of nifty guests lined up. • I’ve heard from three separate sources now that Mermaid is on the shelves at some Borders stores. Woo! (I’d still call ahead though, just to make sure.) • Finally, Elizabeth Bear unveiled the cover of her forthcoming book Bone and Jewel Creatures. I like this cover an awful lot, and decided to express my appreciation in LOL form. (For newcomers, the entire LOL Book series is available in my LJ archives, if you’re interested.) Enjoy!
Heading off shortly to take my wife in for knee surgery #6. This one is fairly minor, but blogging & e-mail will probably still be scarce for a few days. And … um … nothing else to say really, so here, have a LOL book.
Since the last one seemed to go over well (and since I spent all of my brain on the short story rewrite this weekend and had nothing left over), how about another LOL Book? This one is from Spell Games [Amazon | Mysterious Galaxy], by T. A. Pratt.
As some of you know, I used to post regular LOL Books. Sadly, I eventually chose to stop doing them because it was taking too much time, and it was becoming work rather than fun. However, as I was browsing Amazon yesterday, I came across a book just crying out for a LOL…
(The book is Pride and Prejudice and Zombies [Amazon | Mysterious Galaxy], for anyone who might have missed the buzz.) |
