Today I'm delighted to introduce a good friend of mine, David Coe . . . er, DB Jackson. Well, both. David is the proud papa of a brand new, wonderful (I know because I blurbed it) historical fantasy novel, Thieftaker under the name DB Jackson. I'll let him explain.

This sounds fascinating -- I'm going to check it out. Thanks, Lynn, for bringing it to our attention!

BTW, that cover -- Chris McGrath?

davidbcoe July 11 2012, 20:43:14 UTC

Yes, Chris McGrath! Isn't it great. I LOVE my cover art. Thanks for your interest in the book!

jperceval July 11 2012, 20:45:15 UTC

I thought so -- his stuff is so distinctive and gorgeous.

I just posted about your book to my readers' group as well. :-)

Thank you! [Pointing at JPerceval] Lynn, this one's my favorite....

This book sounds like it's going to be AWESOME! I'm definitely going to pick it up. :)

davidbcoe July 11 2012, 20:43:30 UTC

Thanks, Kurai. Hope you enjoy it.

Oh, this sounds wonderful!

davidbcoe July 11 2012, 20:43:56 UTC

An Sceal, I hope you like the book. Thanks for the comment.

I'm always excited to come across a new (to me) author, and I love historical fantasy. Plus, I'm shallow, and your cover is gorgeous. ;)

davidbcoe July 12 2012, 01:26:37 UTC

I'm shallow, too. Never judge a book by its cover. Right. But pretty is pretty, and heck, I'm only human....

I think I'm in love. ♥ Revolutionary War and pre-Revolutionary history is a minor family obsession--we trace back to a Virginia rifleman under Daniel Morgan--so this book is right up my alley. And it's not like the Continental Congress and the war sprang from nothing. This period is critical in leading up to those events.

davidbcoe July 11 2012, 20:44:53 UTC

Wikdsushi, exactly! That's one of the reasons I love this period so much and wanted to set my books in it. Hope you enjoy THIEFTAKER.

wikdsushi July 11 2012, 22:22:44 UTC

I plan to! :D It's in my Amazon cart for the next time I'm able to place an order. (Ironically, the reason I can't swing for it right now is because I just bought Alexander Hamilton, by Ron Chernow.)

davidbcoe July 12 2012, 01:27:08 UTC

Thanks for putting it in the cart. Hope you can get it soon! Enjoy the Chernow book.

Haha! I just ordered this book from Amazon 15 minutes ago, because someone else had pointed me at it.
A few new authors just got a plink in sales due to the last order.

davidbcoe July 12 2012, 01:27:43 UTC

Jettcat, thanks! Hope it reaches you quickly, and hope you enjoy it.
