Joanna Bourne Updates Blog, Provides Excerpt
Last Sunday, I started babbling about how much I liked a January 2008 release called The Spymaster’s Lady. At the time, the author did not have an updated blog or website so I wasn’t able to provide a link to an excerpt. However, since that time, Ms. Bourne has updated her blog and provided a delicious excerpt. It certainly whets the appetite, no?

Went there and read it. It looks very promising. My kind of heroine!

Verra nice. Love the exchange. I would’ve totally passed this book by on the shelf (the spy thing has never been what I’d consider a ‘hook’. Don’t hate, don’t love it.) Thanks for the heads-up.

I wonder – is it normal to get a hot flash from a short excerpt?
I look foward to reading this – thank you for posting your thoughts and her updates.

Yes, an excerpt really makes a difference. I don’t care for lady spies, but I do really like witty dialog; so I’ll be looking for this in January.

Just finished Spymasters Lady. What a totally wonderful surprise. Very nice. Different. But still with a happy ending. A little more brain effort required than I usually like. I usually enjoy the romance novels because they require little of me in the thinking department. They dont tell me to be a better mother, wife, daughter, American, etc. They dont make me feel guilty for not doing it all right. They just make me smile and its always a happy ending. This one hardly made me smile. But it was a nice change. I thought well done.

I’m glad you liked it. It’s definitely one of my favorites of the year. (of course, the year has just started, but it is still an amazing story).
