I was looking at my blog today and realized that I'd never mentioned the Angel's Grace release! It came out on January 10 and I went to visit terrycloth on January 11, so I did even less talking-up-the-new-release than usual. Oops. Here it is! This is pretty much just the newsletter announcement, which I did remember to send out.

Angel's Grace

The Demon’s Series: Book 4

If Bright had known how good it was to be a reformed demon, it would have reformed thousands of years ago.

Not that reform has been trouble-free for it, granted. Its presence in the demon hunters’ guild had been so divisive that Bright had to leave. Now Bright and its friends — Sunrise, Raven, and Mercy — hunt demons as an independent team in a foreign nation. When they stumble upon a strange new kind of demon, asking the guild for assistance means risking another backlash.

On a more personal level, Bright knows its three teammates would like to forge a romantic relationship with one another. Even its teammates know that they want a romantic triad. But for some reason, they can’t just do that. Humans are incomprehensible.

But the most worrisome issue is that Bright knows that some of the demons of Anesh have been working together to stop Bright. They’ve attacked Sunrise once, and Bright expects them to try again. Or to attack one of its other allies.

Its concerns are justified—

—but their plan is more ambitious — and far more deadly — than anything Bright imagined.

Author Commentary

I’d hoped to publish Angel’s Grace in December, but I see that I wisely put “December or January” down for my anticipated release date in my last newsletter. Right on time!

This book concludes the arc begun by Demon’s Alliance. While I expect to revisit these characters at some point in the future, this installment leaves everything in a satisfying place. It will be a few years (or more) before I get back to them.

In other writing news, I have two completed drafts to edit (Alien Peacelords and A Game to You) plus one mostly-completed draft to finish writing (A Dragonling’s Family). All three of them are in new and separate settings. Alien Peacelords will be my next release, later this year.

Books by Other Authors

Anyone who knows me knows that I have not done much reading for the last several years. I have, however, recently finished M.C.A. Hogarth’s "Haley and Nana" series. I love these stories: charming, healing, gentle, and wise. They are an excellent length: short enough to read quickly and long enough to develop a vivid cast and an engaging world. Do take a look.

Happy reading!
