DeleteI never knew Michael wrote a sci-fi! We still have a little ways to go before it comes out. I just love all of the covers to the The Riyria Chronicles, especially when they look fierce w/ their swords, and omgosh those cloaks and shirts!! Yes, I have a thing for swords and men in cloaks or peasant shirts... lol
ReplyDeleteSilverlight, this is Michaels first published sci-fi. He's got a short story that's a sci-fi, Greener Grass. I have it but haven't read it yet. I'm really looking forward to this one. Yes, I have the same attraction for men with swords, cloaks, and such too. lol.
