It's always nice to receive acclamation from a fellow writer, especially one as talented as G.R. Yeates. On his blog he did a roundup of favorites for 2012 and had this to say about my novel:
"I’ve chosen a writer who has followed a similar path to myself – that of historical horror. A Fine Likeness
by Sean McLachlan is set during the American Civil War and deals with
Confederate rebels and Union soldiers facing off against a black magic
cult that are seeking to use the war-time strife to their own ends. A
thoroughly immersive read written by someone with a real passion for the
period the story is set in. The level of detail is as impressive as the
well-drawn and convincing characterisation. I also liked the touch of
including real historical characters in amongst the mayhem to add to the
tone of authenticity that resounds throughout the book."
Thanks, G.R.! Check out the guest blog he did for me about his World War One fiction here.
Congrats! Good news brightens an author's day.
ReplyDeleteNice way to start the year.
That's very cool, Sean! Nothing like knowing your book is someone's favorite.
ReplyDeleteDon't forget I have you down for a guest post in two weeks. Guess we need to nail down a topic.
