Whoever just read TTWP and went straight into King Hunters without a pause, I hope you are enjoying them. Seems like you might be.

Today is the 10th anniversary of the release of The Shepherd’s Crown - Sir Terry Pratchett’s final novel. It reminded me that my first piece of published writing was a review of the book. It’s a little embarrassing, but his work is very important to me, so I thought I’d share it here. GNU Terry.

I actually love this review of King Hunters.
Is it a glowing review? No.
Is it a damning condemnation? No.
It is fair, it is thorough, and I wish I had more like this.

The book isn't perfect, no book is, but despite it's flaws it was still a great read. Can't ask for more.

Absolutely loving the new review for King Hunters on Amazon.

This gem:
Brawls, battles, and barbarians. Kings, knights, and pawns. Long swords, battle axes, and… fluffy handcuffs? All wrapped into an epic tale that’s cheeky and humorous, but with a dark edge.

"How will you know you've made it as a writer?"

When someone tells me there's a scammer pretending to be me, obviously.
