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 of Mass Effect: Deception by William C. Dietz. Matt Staggs posted Take Five with Saladin Ahmed, and David Moench posted Star Wars Authors at Celebration VI. That’s not all though. Aidan Moher posted New Screenshots for Kingdoms of Amalur: Reckoning, and I posted Creating the Annotated Sword of Shannara.
In other areas of the professional internet(s), Tor.com is reading Chapter 3 of A Clash of Kings by George R. R. Martin, Pyr Books revealed the cover for Shadow’s Master by Jon Sprunk, and Orbit Books released The Heir of Night by Helen Lowe!
