The Devil's Thief tour: Entrevista y Sorteo

Mis queridos arrebatadores :o) ¡Ya es viernes! 

Y la noticia mejora con la presencia internacional de la escritora LISA MAXWELL. Su libro El último mago llegará próximamente a España y, mientras tanto, ella está celebrando un tour para promocionar la segunda parte, The Devil's Thief (El ladrón del diablo).

Me apunté al tour porque ya sabéis que siempre estoy metida en mil tinglados. Hoy os traigo una entrevista al estilo de mi sección AUTORES LECTORES y un sorteo en el blog.

ENTREVISTA: THE READER IN EVERY AUTHOR

What are you reading these days?

I’ve been reading a lot of research for Book 3 of The Last Magician series. So…nothing overly page-turning, unfortunately. Recently, though, I’ve read a few great books! I really loved The Astonishing Color of After by Emily X.R. Pan. And I got to read an early copy of Peternelle van Arsdale’s The Cold Is In Her Bones and Nicki Pau Preto’s Crown of Feathers, and I loved both of them. When they’re out later, your readers should definitely check them out.

Mis lecturas actuales…

He leído mucho para documentar el tercer libro de la serie El último mago, así que nada especialmente absorbente, me temo. Hace poco, de todas formas, he leído unos cuantos libros muy buenos. Me encantó El sorprendente color de después, de Emily X.R. Pan. Tuve la oportunidad de leer una copia avanzada de El frío está ensus huesos de Peternelle van Arsdale y Corona de plumas, de Nicki Pau Preto. Ambos estupendos. Cuando se publiquen, deberíais echarles un vistazo sin dudarlo.

What two books would you recommend other readers and why?

One of my very favorite books is Tim O’Brien’s The Things They Carried. It isn’t YA. It’s actually about young soldiers in the Vietnam War, but it’s such an engaging read. The reason I love it and will always love it is that it has this beautiful way of explaining how the story-truth of fiction can be just as real—and sometimes more so—than the actual just-the-facts truth. 

Another really wonderful book is American Panda by Gloria Chao. The humor and heart in this one is everything a reader could want in a book.

Dos lecturas recomendadas.

Uno de mis libros favoritos es Las cosas que llevaban, de Tim O’Brien. No es juvenil, sino que trata de jóvenes soldados durante la guerra de Vietnam y es una lectura cautivadora. La razón por la que me gusta tanto es que tiene una manera tan bella de expresar la verdad a través de la ficción que a veces resulta más realista que los simples hechos.

Otro libro maravilloso es Panda americano, de Gloria Chao. El humor y el corazón que contiene este libro son todo lo que un lector podría desear.

In what ways have the books you've read influenced how you write?

I have a background in studying literature, so a lot of the books I’ve read were what a lot of people would consider literary fiction. But even with the more literary books, I have always loved books that play with the idea of what is real—books where reality could be more magical than the surface shows. A lot of people might not think that literary books can do this, but magical realism and post modern fiction—writers like Toni Morrison, Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Tim O’Brien and others. Their dabbling with magic and the way that reality can be more fantastic and unbelievable sometimes has always intrigued me, and I think that’s informed my books.

I also love really lyrical and poetic writers. That’s probably because of my literature background. But writers like the modernists (think 1919-1940) who played with the way writers represented reality really inform the way I think about using images and other literary devices in my books. Writers like Fitzgerald and Kay Boyle and poets like William Carlos Williams or T.S. Eliot.  

Finally, I’m a huge huge fan of romance, especially historical romances, like those written by Sarah MacLean and Julia Quinn. I love the way they create these really three-dimensional characters. So much of romance follows the same basic plot lines, but the individuality of the characters is what makes or breaks a story for me, and I think reading a lot of romance helped me understand how to create characters of my own.

Formas en que los libros que has leído han influenciado tu escritura.

He estudiado literatura, por lo que muchos de los libros que he leído son lo que la gente consideraría ficción literaria. Siendo así y todo, siempre he amado los libros que juegan con la idea de lo que es real, libros donde la realidad es mágica más allá de la superficie. Hay quienes podría desechar la idea de que este tipo de literatura es capaz de eso, pero el realismo mágico y la ficción post moderna cuenta con escritores como Toni Morrison, Gabriel García Márquez y Tim O’Brien, entre otros. Su forma de flirtear con la magia y que la realidad puede ser fantástica e increíble siempre me ha intrigado, y creo que eso se ha traspasado a mis libros.

Me encantan los autores que escriben de forma lírica y poética. Me viene de mis estudios, probablemente, aunque escritores como lo modernistas (1919-1940) que jugaban con las técnicas para representar la realidad me han influido a la hora de usar imaginería y estrategias literarias en mis libros. Por nombrar algunos, Fitzgerald y Kay Boyle y poetas omo William Carlos Williams or T.S. Eliot.  

Por último, soy una fan total del romance, en particular los romances históricos como los escritos por Sarah MacLean y Julia Quinn. Me encanta la manera en que crean personajes tridimensionales. Gran parte de las historias románticas cumplen con un mismo prototipo de argumento, pero es la individualidad de los personajes lo que concede el éxito a una historia o todo lo contrario, y creo que leer mucho romance me ha ayudado a comprender cómo crear personajes propios.

And, if you could ask a question to my blog's followers, that would be awesome.

I’d love to know what your readers love to read!

En la actual Nueva York, no existe la magia. Los pocos que aún sienten afinidad con la magia se esconden en las sombras y cualquiera que entra en la ciudad queda atrapado en ella por una barrera de energía. Esta es una ladrona especializada en robar artefactos mágicos y puede manipular el tiempo, así que roba artefactos para arrebatárselos a la poderosa Orden que construyó la barrera. Su próxima misión consiste en robar un libro mágico en 1901 que contiene los secretos de la Orden y del Mago, pero nada es lo que parece y mucho menos el propio Mago. 

¿Qué os ha parecido la autora? ¿Tenéis ganas de leer sus libros de fantasía? A mí me apetece muchísimo porque la manipulación del tiempo y los libros mágicos me atraen como un imán ;o)

¡Suerte con el sorteo!

 Buenas, mis arrebatadores :o) ¿Qué tal os ha tratado el verano?

Lo mejor para mí ha sido descubrir nuevos libros y adelantar mis lecturas atrasadas (que nunca terminaré) en un ambiente de relax total. Hace poco, recibí el boletín de una autora, Jessica Redmerski (nota: soy adicta a los boletines/newsletters). Ofrecía la posibilidad de participar en el lanzamiento de su próximo libro que se publica hoy día 28 de agosto. En un impulso, decidí apuntarme. 

Además, tenemos la suerte de que ofrece una copia digital a este blog para sortear entre los comentaristas. ¿No es genial? :-D Existe también la posibilidad de ganar un marcapáginas firmado, pero no podré confirmarlo hasta que se publique el libro y la autora envíe el material por correo a los blogs participantes. Si recibo los marcapáginas, os lo haré saber para enviarle uno a quien haya ganado la copia en formato kindle de su libro en inglés.

Thais Fenwick was eleven-years-old when civilization fell, devastated by a virus that killed off the majority of the world’s population. For seven years, Thais and her family lived in a community of survivors deep in the heart of the Appalachian Mountains. But when her town is attacked by raiders, she and her blind sister are taken away to the East-Central Territory where she is destined to live the cruel and unjust kind of life her late mother warned her about.

Atticus Hunt is a troubled soldier in Lexington City who has spent the past seven years trying to conform to the vicious nature of men in a post-apocalyptic society. He knows that in order to survive, he must abandon his morals and his conscience and become like those he is surrounded by. But when he meets Thais, morals and conscience win out over conformity, and he risks his rank and his life to help her. They escape the city and set out together on a long and perilous journey to find safety in Shreveport, Louisiana.

Struggling to survive in a world without electricity, food, shelter, and clean water, Atticus and Thais shed their fear of growing too close, and they fall hopelessly in love. But can love survive in such dark times, or is it fated to die with them?

Como véis, el libro está en inglés. Os comento de qué va, pero recordad que la copia kindle a sortear estará en ese idioma, así que participad si podéis leerlo ;o)

TODO BAJO EL SOL está ambientado en un mundo futurista cuya civilización acabó devastada por un virus que asoló gran parte de la población cuando Thais tenía 11 años. Siete años después, Thais y su familia sobreviven en las montañas Apalaches, pero tras un ataque de saqueadores, ella y su hermana ciega son raptadas. Acaban en una zona donde los hombres son crueles y someten a la gente sin asomo de moralidad. Allí conoce a Atticus, un soldado que lucha por desprenderse de su humanidad para poder adaptarse a la nueva vida post-apocalíptica. Algo que le resulta imposible cuando conoce a Thais y lo arriesga todo para salvarla. Así empieza una carrera por la supervivencia y, tal vez, por el amor.

¡Suena genial!<3

ABOUT THE MASTERMIND

She began self-publishing in 2012, and later with the success of THE EDGE OF NEVER, signed on with Grand Central Publishing/Forever Romance. Her works have so far been translated into twenty languages.

Jessica is a hybrid author who, in addition to working with a traditional publisher, also continues to self-publish.

EVERYTHING UNDER THE SUN is Jessica’s newest love story.

WHAT SHE THINKS

Tell us a little about why you write in so many different genres. Does it work for you?

I can’t stick to one genre. I love writing all types of stories. Does it work for me? Yes and no. Yes, because I’d start to feel claustrophobic if I had to write in the same genre all the time. No, because I think it confuses my readers that I write everything under the same author name. I regret that decision to this day. My advice to authors considering it: Don’t make this mistake!

What would you say is your most interesting writing quirk?

I never stop writing for the day at the end of a scene or sentence, but instead right in the middle of them. This helps me prevent writer’s block and keeps my mind fresh.

When it comes to writing, what are your strong points? What are your weaknesses?

I love to write dialogue. It feels and flows more natural to me. I feel like I struggle a little more with description, because I’m impatient and sometimes it feels like the description is slowing me down. But I pace myself! If I didn’t, the entire novel would be one giant conversation.

Who is your favorite author and what is it that really strikes you about their work?

I don’t have a favorite – I have several! Anne Rice and Neil Gaiman I have admired for many years. I love Rice’s deep, descriptive style and Gaiman’s unique ideas. But I also love Paullina Simons and Cormac McCarthy – there are just so many! And, of course, there’s J.K. Rowling, but I don’t really have to name her, do I? Isn’t she everybody’s favorite by default? 😊

Is there one book that has had an impact on not only your writing, but on you personally?

That would be THE VAMPIRE ARMAND by Anne Rice. It’s a book that I’ve read four or five times and the one that really inspired me to try to become a published author.

Tell us your favorite quote.

“Love is a trick that Nature plays on us to get us to reproduce.” – Callisto – Xena Warrior Princess. I’m not against love, I’ve always just been awed by that quote. Not to mention, Callisto was awesome!

EXCERPT #5: “TAKE IT.”

“Are you still angry?” I asked him.

“About what?”

“Giving the bread away to those people.”

He shook his head against the quilt.

“No, Thais, I’m not still angry.”

After a moment, he said, “Thais?”

“Mmm-hmm?”

“Don’t ask me to kiss you again.”

I paused, tensed. “Why not?” I was afraid of the answer.

We continued to look up at the stars. Behind us the horses whickered and their tails swished about. A light breeze combed through the trees, carrying the bitter and sweet scents of pine and honeysuckle with it.

Finally, Atticus answered, “Because whatever you want from me, Thais, I’d rather you just take it.”

I wanted to cry.

I smiled to myself instead.

He leído varios extractos del libro y me parece muy interesante por la mezcla de supervivencia y romance imposible. ¿Qué os ha parecido la cubierta? Es encantadora, ¿verdad?

Babel.

Sigo con el steampunk en Clockwork Menagerie + giveaway

Arrebatadores, ¿a quién de vosotros le gusta el género steampunk? 

Sé que hay algunos por ahí diseminados, por lo que espero que os guste esta nueva adición, en formato relato corto, al mundo de las novelas de Karen Kincy. En el pasado, leí dos novelas suyas, Shadows of Asphodel (mi opinión) y Storms of Lazarus (mi opinión). Están repletas de aventuras, zeppelines, romance y magia. De modo que, cuando me invitaron a participar en el tour de una nueva historia en esta serie, me alegré muchísimo.

Hay que empezar por el principio y leer las dos novelas antes de embarcarse en este relato, por supuesto. Me ha encantado reencontrarme con el archimago Konstantin, tan educado y absorto en la ciencia de la tecnomancia, y con el gallardo capitán de zepelín, Himmel. 

Son reclutados para "espiar" con elegancia y sin tomar cartas en el asunto como parte de una visita diplomática a Rusia. Las cosas se tuercen y Konstantin mete la pata cuando investiga más allá de la cuenta la intervención de una noble rusa en el uso ilegal de almas para dinamizar máquinas steampunk con forma de dragón.

Se trata de un relato de 85 páginas aproximadamente donde ocurren cosas sin parar, en medio de una Europa medio mágica medio en guerra, con rusos peligrosos por todas partes, un frío siberiano, máquinas tan bellas como mortales y un par de héroes a su pesar que arriesgan sus carreras en pos de la verdad. Curiosamente, me he topado con un romance chico-chico que ha resultado realista, cálido y divertido a la par, y algo sexy también. Me ha gustado muchísimo la aventura porque cambia de escenario constantemente, es muy dinámica, y tiene lugar en Rusia, cosa que me estimula un montón. Aparte, el romance prohibido supone un toque de drama y sentimiento que funciona muy bien ya que se trata de personajes que ya conozco y con quienes empatizo. El final, por supuesto, cierra la aventura pero deja abierto el camino para sus repercusiones en el frágil equilibrio de Europa y para la relación de los dos héroes.

Welcome to my tour stop for Clockwork Menagerie, a companion novellato the Shadows of Asphodel series by Karen Kincy. This is an adult historical fantasy romance and the tour runs September 1-11. Check out the tour page for more information.

Clockwork Menagerie

 (Shadows of Asphodel, #2.5), 

by Karen Kincy

Genre: Historical-fantasy romance

Publisher: Curiosity Quills Press

Date of Release: September 1, 2015

Cover Artist: Eugene Teplitsky

Find Online: Amazon US | Amazon UK | Goodreads

Description:

A companion novella to the Shadows of Asphodel series, from Konstantin's point of view.

1914. Konstantin would love to hide in his laboratory and dissect the clockwork dragon captured from Russia, but the Archmages of Vienna have other plans. He finds himself shipped off to St. Petersburg as the scientific attaché to an ambassador. His orders? Look, but don't touch. Of course, he considers this an impossible request with so much enemy technomancy to explore.

To make matters worse, Konstantin has to work with the dashing zeppelin commander Himmel, a man who should also be untouchable. They can't act on the smoldering attraction between them without risking it all. Faced with an illegal relationship and a devious rival technomancer, Konstantin might not return from this mission in Russia without conquering the forbidden.

MY OPINION

I was delighted to come back to the steampunk world of the Archmages of Vienna and their technomancy, a Europe on the brink of war, and zeppelin adventures.

Even for as short a time as this 90-page novella allows, it was so worth it. I had the chance to reacquaint myself with a couple of interesting characters such as archmage Konstantin Falkenrath and captain Himmel.

Sucked into a diplomatic venture into imposing Russia, they have to uncover the deadly secrets behind illegal use of soul magic in machines. At the same time, they deal with the perils of giving into an unlawful attraction between them. I'm not used to this kind of MM romance, but i can only confess it was sweetly exhilarating as I was fond of the characters, and their feelings and attitudes were so touchingly conveyed. And, yes, hot too.

With a fast pace, lots of things going on and an engaging plot of war politics, this Russian adventure packs an entertaining combination of dragon machines, heartfelt and impossible romance, deadly enemies and swashbuckling zeppelins. 

The end came too quickly as I'd hoped for a more concrete conclusion, yet I have the inkling this is the beginning of a beautiful future of stories featuring the daring couple, or maybe a well-planned link to the next full-length novel. Either way, I'm more than happy to have read this adventure with characters that feel so real and clever. I really enjoyed Himmel's stiff and loyal stance, and Konstantin's endearing inadequacy and brave morals. I hope to see more of them soon!

A Wicked Thing: después del fueron felices y comieron perdices

¿Una doncella ataviada con vestidazo y en pose extravagante? ¡Adjudicada la lectura! ;o)

Confieso mi debilidad por estas preciosas cubiertas. Siempre voy deprisa a leer la sinopsis en la contraportada para confirmar si me apetece leer la historia. Con qué alegría descubrí que A WICKED THING, de Rhiannon Thomas, trata sobre Aurora, la protagonista de la Bella Durmiente. ¡Me encantan los retellings de cuentos!

Esta historia arranca en el momento legendario en que Aurora despierta con el beso de su amor verdadero. ¿Fueron felices y comieron animalitos alados? Me temo que nada más lejos de la realidad.  O de esta misteriosa y juvenil fantasía que juega con la búsqueda de identidad de una joven condenada a cumplir los dictados del destino y la política.

Sobre todo, me ha parecido muy interesante que, aunque Aurora es dócil y carente de libertad de elección, se debata entre el deber y su deseo de aventura. Se ha pasado la vida aislada en una torre. Después de cien años de siesta mágica, descubre que todos quieren manipularla para sus fines de poder y control. Ella, en cambio, no está segura de que obedecer traiga la ansiada paz al reino de Alyssinia, ni de que sus propias ansias de libertad merezcan ser escuchadas. Sufre un debate interno constante.

Poco a poco, a pesar de estar sometida sin remisión, va demostrando ingenio, libre albedrío, determinación.

La autora describe con sensibilidad sus sentimientos divididos, su indefensión, a medida que traba relaciones con la dominante reina, el tiránico rey, su dulce y tímido prometido. Rompe las reglas cuando ale del castillo y conoce a Tristan, el joven que representa al pueblo oprimido. Su mente inquisitiva brilla cuando debate con el encantador y artero príncipe Finnegan. ¡Mi favorito, sin duda! Qué listo y manipulador es el chico, y nunca sabes si miente o es bueno o malo... Sus diálogos son de lo mejor.

Con sutileza, la magia hace acto de presencia a través de la maldición que pesa sobre Aurora. Hay muchos hilos de los que tirar en este punto. Al final, arrollado por hechos trágicos fuera de su control, Aurora sufre muchos avatares y culpas y dudas en unos últimos capítulos llenos de sorpresas.

Creo que es una visión muy individualista de este personaje de cuento, una búsqueda de la relevancia personal en un mundo gobernado por las injusticias, las apariencias y las obligaciones amorales.

Promete una gran aventura para el siguiente libro y ya estoy deseando saber cómo se titulará... ¿A Wicked Choice? No estaría mal ;o)

A Wicked Thing

by Rhiannon Thomas

Publisher: HarperTeen

Release Date: February 24th 2015

Read an excerpt

Rhiannon Thomas's dazzling debut novel is a spellbinding reimagining of Sleeping Beauty and what happens after happily ever after.

One hundred years after falling asleep, Princess Aurora wakes up to the kiss of a handsome prince and a broken kingdom that has been dreaming of her return. All the books say that she should be living happily ever after. But as Aurora understands all too well, the truth is nothing like the fairy tale.

Her family is long dead. Her "true love" is a kind stranger. And her whole life has been planned out by political foes while she slept. 

As Aurora struggles to make sense of her new world, she begins to fear that the curse has left its mark on her, a fiery and dangerous thing that might be as wicked as the witch who once ensnared her. With her wedding day drawing near, Aurora must make the ultimate decision on how to save her kingdom: marry the prince or run.

Rhiannon Thomas weaves together vivid scenes of action, romance, and gorgeous gowns to reveal a richly imagined world … and Sleeping Beauty as she’s never been seen before.

MY OPINION OF A WICKED THING

The catch

The fact that Aurora's story starts right after the spell-breaking kiss is higly appealing. So much plot and secrets to discover!

The style

Evocative. It made me easily understand the bewilderment Aurora feels after awakening from her century-old slumber. Surrounded by strangers, bereft of all the people she loved and the places and times that meant something to her, her plight only intensifies when the real reasons concerning her importance surface and threaten her.

The twists

I liked it very much that there is so much mystery and secrets in the land where Aurora has awoken into. Does anyone care about her? Or only plan to use her as a pawn in their dark schemes?

The romance

A pinch that entices. I promise there's plenty of possibilities here.

I've enjoyed Aurora's interactions with other characters. All of them have their own hidden agendas and the fun is in finding out the nuances and dangers and veiled truths. The aloof queen, duty-bound Rodric, insecure Isabelle, the oh-so-charming-bad-boy Finnegan, alluring Tristan.

Even before the curse that put her to sleep, Aurora had been trapped in a tower by her fearful parents who wanted to protect her. You can feel her need to taste life and adventure! I enjoyed seeing her grow more confident on her desires and protests. And that's how she meets Tristan!

The author has made a good decision when she chose a heroic story for a girl who's not a heroine. She's an ordinary girl amidst extraordinary circumstances. Or is she?

From a cursed-induced sleep through a path that's been predesigned for her, she has to face all kinds of expectations and challenges. Will she be up to the task or will she disappoint the people who's lost hope and the land that's lost magic?

This is a story of finding your place in a confusing world and the sacrifices that must be made in the way. I could relate to the main character. She's torn between duty and desire. After all, we've all been there. Well, not in a castle brimming with politics, unrest, scheming, a pinch of magic and a threat of dragons, but... we've been in the princess' shoes, at least. Is it the right thing to follow the rules or to break them and find freedom?

With a steady and fairy tale atmosphere, A Wicked Thing strikes me as a siren call for freedom. Aurora is a girl without a choice that looks for herself in the middle of lies, betrayal, death and power struggle. I really liked her growth as a character, her wonderful interaction with prince Finnegan (is he evil or an antihero?).

It was really interesting to see the legend twisted into a fantasy nightmare of difficult choices, a dreary royal wedding and the impossibility of a happily ever after. Every character plays an important role and the mystery that dwells inside Aurora is cause for wanting to read that ending that comes too soon and too marked by tragedy and a promise of adventure. I'm very curious to know what comes after this wicked beginning.

Favourite quote:

"I'm lost", she said. "Me too", he said. "Maybe we can be lost together"
