I'm happy for reviews to appear anywhere and everywhere. I hadn't even realised B&N could sell the printed book. I'm glad you're enjoying the series!

I have considered using createspace to produce some hard copies to sell, but I haven't got my head round the complexities of it yet. Most of my spare time is going on getting book 3 written.
However, I did think that once the trilogy is complete (later this year) it might be a good time to offer all three as real copies for people to order from me direct. Given the size of the books though and postage and packing, it will be hard to keep costs anything like as low as I can for the kindle versions.
Still - watch this (create space)

There are lots of elements in the book and the ideas come from just a huge range of places. I've raided the History books in a quite systematic way, there are parts where I've drawn on "The Railway Children" and "The Bridge over the River Kwai" There was a Dr Who Story from the Peter Davison era called "Kinda" which had a big influence on the central plot device, even though I never watched that story properly or all the way through.

I'm writing book three of the bloodline trilogy. "Master of the Planes." Each book has been in been divided into five parts and I'm just about to finish the Part 3, two more parts to go.
It's nice to start hitting those key storyline points I've been working towards for a while and finally pull the pin on a few plot hand grenades I've just been waiting to let go.

Read, write, read again. You get better with practice at writing, it's like running in a car engine. I heard once you have to write a million words before you get the creaks and the cliches out of your system and reach a writing paradigm. I don't know if it's true but I reckon I probably did write about a million words before Lady of the Helm.
