Excerpt
Meet Kevin Rau, Author….
Kevin is a full-time software/database/web developer by day, but by night he works full-time at crafting novels in the fantasy and sci-fi genres. A long time fan of comic books, role-playing games, and most fantasy and science fiction, he turned to writing out of a desire to see ongoing works where both readers and he can learn more about the characters on their ongoing stories..

**SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT: Kevin will give away a copy of his newest release, H.E.R.O. DOLLDRUM, to one lucky reader!! Comment on either his Monday Interview and/or Wednesday’s Karen’s Killer Book Bench blogs for a chance to win. Winner will be randomly selected and announced Monday, March 4, 2013. Thanks, Kevin, for sharing your stories with us!
This reads a lot like a tabletop game battle scene. Very fun! Thank you for sharing!
Thanks for stopping by, Jan K! Glad you enjoyed Kevin’s excerpt. Sounds like a fun new genre for me to check out. 🙂
Hi, Kevin Rau here! Looks like I sent Karen the wrong excerpt from H.E.R.O. – Dolldrum. (For some reason I was thinking she had been asking about Necromancer’s Ascent, my new sword & sorcery novel released a week ago.)
10% of H.E.R.O. – Dolldrum IS available on Amazon and Smashwords, feel free to click the “preview” on those sites to check out some of that novel. Otherwise, you’re getting a peek into Necromancer’s Ascent too. 🙂
Jan – in some respects you’re right. I’m a long-time gamer, and I’m sure the way combats work influence my thought process to some degree.
Oops! Thanks for clarifying, Kevin. It’s fun, though, that your readers get a taste of your newest sword and sorcery novel! Two for the price of one.
I’m getting my first glimpse into your genre and it’s fun. I’m going to have to read more. Thanks for blogging with me this week! 🙂
