I will be presenting a blurb for Beyond the Gate, the second book in my epic fantasy series, The Futhark Chronicles. This four book series follows the adventures of Marshal Cage Stone and Keeper Sabelline Shelton as they fight to save their world from an ancient evil working its insidious claws of destruction into the kingdom of Futhark.
I've mentioned before on this blog that I'm hopeful the success of George RR Martin's Game of Thrones series on HBO will be the first wave of an upsurge in epic fantasy sales. And maybe some of those new to the genre or returning to it will take a chance on a new author named Susan Gourley.
If epic fantasy isn't your first love, visit TBR and find something you do like. Have you checked out The Game of Thrones? Did you read the books? Before or after watching the series?

My 13 year old read all the Game of Thrones series during 7th grade, and started urging me to read them as well. I read them last summer, before the series hit HBO. LOVE the way they handled bringing the characters to life, and how they followed all of the first book to the bitter end... really looking forward to how they do with the next book. I highly recommend the books, and the show.
And congrats for the blurb on TBR!
I have your first book downloaded and waiting!
Alas, I can't get cable out here in the boonies, but we did recently sign up for Netflix. Perhaps it's on there!
I read the first book in the series by Martin, but I'm not sure if I'm going to bother with the second. Usually I enjoy epic/high Fantasy, but it just didn't appeal to me.
Just checked it out--great blurb!
I think it will be on Netflix soon when it comes out onf DVD.
Wishing you all the luck in the world with The Futhark Chronicles.
I haven't read Game of Thrones, but I have heard people singing it's praises. Hoping you're right in the upsurge in fantasy readers!
Best of luck with your fantasy series, and I look forward to learning more about it! Thanks for following me! Julie
I loved the first season of Game of Thrones. Not read the books though. Better put them on TBR pile. Best of luck with your books and sure programs like this boost sales of books like it.
