The internet(s) gives and gives and gives.
There are some great sci-fi/fantasy bloggers out there, fans who are devoting a lot of time and energy into supporting authors and their readers. Variety is the spice of life, as they say, and with the menagerie of unique and very different individuals out there contributing, it produces a whole that is better than its parts.
Last week, Suvudu posted the First 50 Pages from The Human Blend by Alan Dean Foster. That’s not all though. Eric Geller interviewed Drew Karpyshyn, Star Wars: Revan. Matt Staggs interviewed Shelly Mazzanoble, author of Everything I Need to Know I Learned from Dungeons & Dragons. I interviewed Jacqueline Carey for Saints Astray, and posted Event Video: Legion by Brandon Sanderson.
In other areas of the professional internet(s), Tor.com posted the UK tour details for Brandon Sanderson, Pyr Books posted a photo from IlluXcon, and Orbit Books features the Goodreads semi-finalists!
