Q: What books are you looking forward to reading in 2014?

Well, top of the list is the final part in Deborah Harkness' All Souls trilogy, which released in July. I can't wait to see how this story ends!

Then there's the new Saint Germain novel by Chelsea Quinn Yarbro, but sadly I have to wait until December for that one!

I also got over 20 books for my birthday and Xmas last month and I am looking forward to working my way through those!

Book Excerpt: Dog Eat Dog by David J Rodger

Today I welcome author David J Rodger to the blog to share an excerpt from his release, Dog Eat Dog.

David J Rodger’s vision of a post-apocalyptic world was given an opening on an epic scale with the hugely popular hit Dog Eat Dog.   It is the first of three separate and unrelated books that occupy the shared universe of Yellow Dawn, sitting alongside successful, eerily haunting The Black Lake and the tense, slow-burning thriller of The Social Club.

In the wake of a cataclysmic event ten years ago (Yellow Dawn),  Mikhail Drobná and Carlos Revira are two survivors, both hungry for money and power, and fuelled by a desire to carve their names onto this new world.  One provides services of violence and protection for powerful corporate criminals in the Living City of New York; the other is a renegade intelligence agent forever running from the demons of his past. Both men are strangers until events bring them face to face in a bloody confrontation.
