My new novel The Initiate officially comes out on February 4 — although I've already got a box of copies, so it seems likely that some bookstores will get theirs in the next couple of weeks.
Booklist will review it February 1, and the advance word is good. I'm allowed to quote a little snippet:
"Cambias' energetic prose and grim take of the idea of a secret wizard community should please most urban fantasy readers."
— Booklist
I couldn't ask for a fairer description of The Initiate.
We're still setting up promotional events, but I can list what's already scheduled.
January 17: At 5:30 p.m. I'll be reading a selection from The Initiate at Boston's biggest SF convention, Arisia, at the Westin Waterfront hotel.
February 4: Official publication date.
February 6: Book launch party at Book Moon bookstore, 86 Cottage Street, Easthampton, Massachusetts. Begins at 6:30 p.m., and features readings by me and by fantasy star Suzanne Palmer. I am trying to find a recipe for Kykeion to serve at the event, but we may have to settle for cake and ice cream.
February 8: Reading at Annie's Book Stop, 65 James Street, Worcester, Mass. I'll be reading and signing in the store at 6:00 p.m.
February 23: Reading and signing at Flights of Fantasy Books and Games, 381 Sand Creek Road, Albany, New York. Event starts at 3:00 p.m.
I'll post other events as we add them.
