The time has finally come! The gaslamp heist fantasy By Hook & Crook is here, and the early support and reviews have been ASTOUNDING. Thank you all so much for urging me along as this book neared completion, and for the tremendous help from many of you to spread the word, give feedback, and more.
Here’s the link to get it on Amazon, and more details below:
If you’re into heists, tight-knit friends taking down the system, political intrigue, immersive worlds, electric adventures, and witty banter, I think you’re going to love it. As a debut novel, it’s a relatively small, easy read that will introduce you to the city of Azoria and nation of Ithris, alongside its unique economic system that has been described as “If Robin Hood enacted The Purge.”
Based on early feedback, fans of Lies of Locke Lamora, Six of Crows, Foundryland, and The Palace Job will enjoy some common themes. But my personal favorite has compared it as Oceans 11 meets Peaky Blinders. That’s exactly the vibe I was going for.
Release Details!
Early numbers are really solid, with the book hitting near the top 50 in three categories on its first day of release!
Amazing debut Amazon.com reviews!
Of course, sales numbers do not a successful novel make (though the publicists sure do love them). For that, people need to actually enjoy the book. So here’s a few early reviews from Readers’ Favorite to sink your teeth into:
What a thrilling, adrenaline-inducing start to what will be an incredible series. I finished this novel in one sitting and cannot wait for the next one!
Overall, By Hook & Crook is an exceptional and highly recommended addition to the fantasy genre that will captivate readers seeking both excitement and depth.
By Hook & Crook is a masterfully written book and a brilliant combination of various attractive elements, including thorough descriptions, sophisticated characters, exciting political games, and epic, high-stakes missions.
What Now?
If you’re reading this, you committed your already bursting email inbox to getting updates from me. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate that.
But if By Hook & Crook is going to be successful, I need more people to know about it! So if you’re reading, have ordered, or are thinking of checking it out, please help me spread the word. Here’s what we need:
Reviews! If you’ve already bought By Hook & Crook, or you’re reading it on Kindle Unlimited, please don’t forget to leave a review. It will help others discover the book, but will also provide valuable opinions and feedback to the reader community and to me. I’m writing book two as we speak! It’s important that I learn what worked, what didn’t, and where people think the story will go.
