The truth is that in recent years the idea of a single launch day has pretty much fallen into disuse, if only because the physical books are on the shelf before the digital books are officially released. Â But still, it’s nice to have a single point in time when you say, “It’s here! Â It’s a Real Book You Can Read!”
And so, today is the day that HEART OF BRIAR is (officially) out in the wild! And I’m too busy with deadlines  to do more than go “wooo!” and remind you. Party for me!
“You can always count on (the) gifted Gilman to deliver richly layered fantasy filled with winning characters and well-defined worlds, and she doesn’t disappoint with HEART OF BRIAR. (A) terrific series starter.â€Â ♦♦♦♦ (4 stars) – RT Reviews
