Hey everyone. Hate that I have to post this. My dog was hit by a car tonight and suffered a shattered leg and damage to her intestines. Surgery and medical expenses are roughly $20,000. It’s been a rough year and anything helps.

Some quick math tells me that should be about $4 per sold book donated, and depending on region $1 to a food bank is $7-10 worth of food. So $28-40 groceries per book sold. Not too shabby, plus you get a book (and also help feed me and contributors).

The Fire in the Frost is another wonderful addition to The Nine Worlds Rising. Fans of Norse mythology retellings need to dive into this world and read about Lyra Wolf’s Loki.
