Hello, friends,
We're just six weeks away from the release of A PARLIAMENT OF BODIES, which I'm so excited to get into your hands. I know people have been anxious for more of Satrine and Minox, PLUS you get more of Dayne and Jerinne. (You have checked out WAY OF THE SHIELD already, yes?) Well, even if you haven't, PARLIAMENT gives you a great introduction to them. Publishers' Weekly says, of PARLIAMENT, "Maresca’s detailed worldbuilding and tightly plotted intrigue will entertain fans of suspenseful fantasy."
Also, this weekend I will be appearing at Boskone, which is one of my favorite conferences. If you are in the Boston area this weekend, come check it out, come say hello. Here's my schedule:
