The
Lost Prince by Julie Kagawa, review
at Vampire
Book Club
Don’t
look at Them. Never let Them know you can see Them.
That is
Ethan Chase’s unbreakable rule. Until the fey he avoids at all costs—including
his reputation—begin to disappear, and Ethan is attacked. Now he must change
the rules to protect his family. To save a girl he never thought he’d dare to
fall for.
Ethan thought he had protected himself from his older sister’s
world—the land of Faery. His previous time in the Iron Realm left him with
nothing but fear and disgust for the world Meghan Chase has made her home, a
land of myth and talking cats, of magic and seductive enemies. But when destiny
comes for Ethan, there is no escape from a danger long, long forgotten.
The
Six Gun Tarot by R.S. Belcher,
review at Fangs
for the Fantasy
Buffy
meets Deadwood in a dark, wildly imaginative historical fantasy
Nevada,
1869: Beyond the pitiless 40-Mile Desert lies Golgotha, a cattle town that
hides more than its share of unnatural secrets. The sheriff bears the mark of
the noose around his neck; some say he is a dead man whose time has not yet
come. His half-human deputy is kin to coyotes. The mayor guards a hoard of
mythical treasures. A banker’s wife belongs to a secret order of assassins. And
a shady saloon owner, whose fingers are in everyone’s business, may know more
about the town’s true origins than he’s letting on.
A haven for the blessed and the damned, Golgotha has known many
strange events, but nothing like the primordial darkness stirring in the
abandoned silver mine overlooking the town. Bleeding midnight, an ancient evil
is spilling into the world, and unless the sheriff and his posse can saddle up
in time, Golgotha will have seen its last dawn…and so will all of Creation.

A big congrats for the podcast mention. I have visited a lot of The Most Anticipated 2013 lists and have discovered a few that I was not aware of and was reminded to start series where bloggers are eagerly awaiting new installments. Great post.
