After my mad gush-fest on Kristen Painter’s Blood Rights yesterday, I’m encouraged to move forward with an overhaul to the VBC recommendations page. I know you guys use it quite a bit, and I try to make sure it only has the best of the best. If it’s on that page, I’ll personally vouch that it rules. . . . → Click here to continue reading Help fashion the new, improved Recommendations page 11 comments News & Notes Allison Pang, discussion, Jeaniene Frost, Karen Marie Moning, Kevin Hearne, Kim Harrison, Kristen Painter, Mira Grant, poll, recommendations, Stacia Kane, Vampire Book Club, Veronica Roth
This week has already been crazy at VBC HQ. While getting everything prepped for Fall into (Urban) Fantasy, I also popped in at Heroes & Heartbreakers twice. First, I shared five YA alpha heroes that are sure to make adult readers swoon (Dimitri, Prince Ash and Jace lead the list). Then, I wrote up a recap of the Night Huntress series thus far. If you haven’t read the earlier books, but still want to read One Grave at a Time next week, the post will get you up-to-date, but it’s heavy on the spoilers. . . . → Click here to continue reading Book Bits: Downside Ghosts sneak, American Gods for TV, Rob Thurman hospitalized, excerpts and Contest Roundup 6 comments News & Notes Book Bits, contest roundup, Courtney Allison Moulton, Downside Ghosts, Fever, Han Solo, Jane True, Karen Marie Moning, Keri Arthur, Meljean Brook, Neil Gaiman, Nicole Peeler, Rob Thurman, Stacia Kane, Star Wars
Instead of giving you a play-by-play of Home Improvement, I’ll just hit the highlights. Above all the others, there were three stories that stood out to me as the best: Melissa Marr’s “The Strength Inside,” Patricia Brigg’s “Gray” and Stacia Kane’s “Rick the Brave.” . . . → Click here to continue reading Review: Home Improvement: Undead Edition 4 comments Reviews, Urban Fantasy anthology, Charlaine Harris, Melissa Marr, Patricia Briggs, Stacia Kane, Toni LP Kelner, urban fantasy
I’ve been itching for more Downside Ghosts for nearly a year now. Stacia Kane’s series is one of my favorites, and this week we got a taste of what’s to come in book 4. The first half of Sacrificial Magic’s Chapter 1 was posted up on Stellar Four. We get Chess playing teacher to a new debunker and cleaning up the ghostly mess created at the end of City of Ghosts (review). Sacrificial Magic doesn’t hit shelves until March 2011, but Amazon’s already letting us pre-order. And that’s nice. . . . → Click here to continue reading Book Bits: Downside Ghosts and Bloodlines excerpts, Sookie’s finale, Hollows Insider and Contest Roundup 5 comments News & Notes Bloodlines, Book Bits, Charlaine Harris, contest roundup, Cynthia Hand, Downside Ghosts, Harry Potter, Kiersten White, Kim Harrison, Night Huntress, Rachel Morgan, Richelle Mead, Sookie Stackhouse, Southern Arcana, Southern Vampire Mysteries, Stacia Kane, Terrible Fever, The Hollows In honor of this fine holiday, I thought we’d talk about character fireworks — specifically those lines and exchanges between hero and heroine that indicate romantic sparks. (Quotes may be from later novels in the series, so spoilers are a possibility. Titles appear before all quotes to help you skip, if you like.) . . . → Click here to continue reading Fireworks: Character sparks 9 comments News & Notes Chloe Neill, fireworks, Jeaniene Frost, JR Ward, Karen Marie Moning, love, Meljean Brook, Paranormal Romance, quotes, Richelle Mead, Stacia Kane, urban fantasy
Today we’re trying something new. Instead of simply the triumphant return of contest roundup (which is toward the end), we’re giving you some of the best book-related news and happenings from the last week. Chances are we’ve already told you about these via Twitter or Facebook. But those move so quickly. In the event you missed any news, it’s all piled in on convenient place. Also, we’re embedding the Breaking Dawn: Part 1 trailer because we like weddings and broken headboards. . . . → Click here to continue reading Book Bits: Downside Ghosts, Vlad, Breaking Dawn, True Blood and Skarsgard awesomeness, more 2 comments News & Notes, Paranormal Romance, Urban Fantasy, Young Adult bloggers, Book Bits, contest roundup, contests, Downside Ghosts, Erin Kellison, Jeaniene Frost, Julie Kagawa, Karen Marie Moning, Laurie London, Nicole Peeler, Night Prince, Rachel Vincent, Soul Screamers, Stacia Kane, True Blood, Twilight, video Wow. Tons of contests this week. We’ll cut the intro and get right to the good stuff. Larissa Ione fans will love this one. Over at Dark Faerie Tales you can win a Demonica tote bag filled with goodies, a signed copy of Pleasure Unbound and an digital copy of Eternity Embraced. You must enter by March . . . → Click here to continue reading Contest Roundup: Larissa Ione, Anton Strout, Kate Pearce, Stacia Kane and lots more In our If You Like post on Unholy Ghosts and Mind Games, we wondered what would happen if the main characters of Stacia Kane and Carolyn Crane’s novels threw down. The resulting Twitter battle between the two fantastic authors had me giggling. It went a little something like this: @StaciaKane: Oh, please. Chess could kick Justine’s ass. . . . → Click here to continue reading Character cagematches? Who should throw down? There’s a reason Unholy Ghosts and the three current Downside novels often top our recommendations. We also know you’ve listened, which means — what do you read while waiting for Downside 4? . . . → Click here to continue reading If you like Unholy Ghosts… read Mind Games
