Reviewer Information for "Pawn's Gambit"


Publisher: Booklocker.com
ISBN: 9781601458513














Description:

After the bloody failure of a revolution against Rattan, mad king of Sandakar, Jubal Khan and other survivors are pursued by Sandakar Special Directorate thugs. The SD is known for having a long reach and longer memory. Flight is not an option.

Colonel Khan must lead an army of desperate men back across Cappabar to overthrow a lesser tyrant and his sorcerer while fighting off SD kill squads. Finally he must confront Rattan, now styling himself as Emperor of All Cappabar, in open battle.

Lurking behind the scenes is Vulch, Rattan's chief warlock. A shadowy figure, he practices the darkest of the black arts in the depths below SD headquarters. The rebels own warlock, Ivar Savlaki, must kill Vulch if Khan's army is to have any chance at all.

Bleak deserts, hard marching and harder fighting lie ahead. Vulch's torture chambers await the survivors of a second failure.

Demonic terror wings through the night. Jubal Khan marches his army toward a blood-red dawn.

Still plugging . . .

So we had some difficulty with the cover. Nothing major, just time consuming.

We're past the end of June and the book still isn't available. But it soon will be.

Keep your fingers crossed.

One more step forward!

The cover has been sent to the publisher. Within a few weeks I should have a proof copy of the book in hand. Once that is approved it will go on sale at Booklocker. After that it will eventually be available at Amazon and other online retailers.

Final draft complete!

The publisher has the final draft of "Pawn's Gambit" and the artist needs only a couple pieces of information to complete the book cover.

Unless there are some other glitches, the book ought to be available around the end of June.
