Wonderfully Strange
As the mountain of initial release publicity subsides, some interesting new and Falling, Fly reviews emerge.
From Fatally Yours:
“From its sophisticated, intelligent writing style to its compelling characters to its reinvention of vampire lore, and Falling, Fly had me hooked from page one. It’s a book that’s hard to put down once you start reading and extremely rewarding once you reach its end. It’s the perfect novel for hopeless romantics, sinners, saints and those in the mood for a completely different vampire novel. Highly recommended!”
From Mondo Vampire:
“and Falling, Fly is a wonderfully strange novel … among the best vampire writing I have read in years. Skyler White is a writer to watch and a name to remember … [she] crams so many ideas into this book that it is bursting at the seams. Memory, myth, allegory, and desire all get a metaphysical work-out … I’m telling you, people, this is the kind of author who will have a cult following in a few years, if not a lot sooner. I can see fans of unconventional fantasy writers like Tanith Lee appreciating what White is doing.”
At Fantasy Dreamer’s Ramblings:
“and Falling, Fly is a dark and lush, uniquely told love story that isn’t to be taken lightly. A definite reading requirement for those who like a book that makes them think and remain in their thoughts long after it’s put down.”
“Not only are the ideas presented in a unique, powerful way but the author’s poetic writing draws you into her fantastic world and holds you tight.”
There’s an interview and giveaway at Fang-tastic Books, with some interesting questions:
“In your world all creatures that are “Other”, like the Reborn and the Damned, they are all called to hell, but why? Can they be “fixed” or just “enlightened” to their condition?”
Off to pack for Dallas’ All-Con …
