Sorry - I am hopeless at tech and didn't even realize there were questions here.

I am currently attempting to sell another "duet" in the fantasy genre, but I think Herric's story is finished. Thank you very much for reading them.(less)

Taking the Snow Queen as a starting place, this re-imagined fairy tale is delightful. It's written with the simplicity of classic fairy tales but contains multitudes. And Mousebones, the raven, is splendid (as I'm sure he would agree).

I like Jimmy Perez, Cleeves's hero from the Shetland series, but this book seemed to be more about Willow, his (newish) partner, who has never in my eyes been a fully developed character and still isn't in this book, which takes place in the Orkneys. ...more

“It isn't always enough, to be right."
Wolf's Cub
Mackay Wood, Wolf's Cub: A Fantasy

“Art is the lie that enables us to realize the truth.”
Pablo Picasso

“Deserves it! I daresay he does. Many that live deserve death. And some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement. For even the very wise cannot see all ends.”
J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

“The reason that fiction is more interesting than any other form of literature, to those who really like to study people, is that in fiction the author can really tell the truth without humiliating himself.”
Eleanor Roosevelt

“One always has a better book in one's mind than one can manage to get onto paper.”
Michael Cunningham

“People love a happy ending. So every episode, I will explain once again that I don't like people. And then Mal will shoot someone. Someone we like. And their puppy.”
Joss Whedon
