Novel Spotlight
Two novels to spotlight this month. The first is The Cymage by Dave Walsh With each cough death looms closer. Only an experimental technology can save him. New meaning enters his life when a foreign leader asks the humble monk Am’ranth to help solidify his legacy during a time of peace. That legacy? A weapon unlike any other. Their friendship is the stuff of legends; their rivalry reshaped humanity’s future. A novelette set in Dave Walsh’s Andlios universe, the Cymage provides a glimpse into the rich history of the planet Andlios before the events of Terminus Cycle. The second book is Reverb by David Fuentes It’s ‘The Inbetweeners’ meets ‘Groundhog Day.’ ‘Reverb: Live, Die, Rave, Repeat’ tells the epic story of six young and adventurous students who get to relive the first day of their, no holds barred, holiday to the hedonistic party haven of Magaluf over and over and over again.
