I hope this moth’s newsletter finds you all well. This week’s Notable & Quotable comes from Stalking Shadows, Book IV in the Lords of Order & Chaos Series and Book VII in the Bloodlines Reforged Saga set to be released in spring of 2022.
She knew that the Door of Will could put her on the trail of the escaped demon, last seen in possession of Lady Erin’s body. However, to reach that magic portal, one had to first pass through the Dark Hall, a span of absolute black haunted by nightmares it somehow pulled from the minds of those who traveled within.

I have two novels to mention this month. The first is Blood of a Fallen God, by Joshua Cook. What do you do when a long dead god chooses you to help it return? What will you have to sacrifice?
Next we have Blood & Loyalty, by Luna Fox and F. Lowberry. “She is your daughter,” Yenderen agreed, “but not your possession. The path she is to take in life is hers and hers alone.” There’s some excellent advice in the tagline.
You can find an ever-growing glossary and geographic guide on our website here; www.bloodlinesreforged.com. You can also find a few spoilers such as the lineage of kingdoms, the Code of the Cavalier, and so on.
As to life here in our little corner of the world, we are all doing well. I had a new experience this past month. Due to the insistence of my son, Alex Hanson. He’s an actor and, I’m guessing based on his profession, felt I needed professional headshots taken for the back of the next book cover. So, much to my chagrin, I did. I must say, Julian Race did an excellent job given what he had to work with and it was much more fun than I anticipated.
Michelle likes the first one best but I like the one below. What do you guys think? Sort of a Hemmingway feel. 🙂 
Oh, I and must tell you about Blondie! So, some of you know I spend way too much time playing video games. I’m a huge Fallout 4 and Call of Duty fan. Blondie (aka Lindsay the badassblondchk) is one of my regular teammates on CoD Modern Warfare. You can follow her Omelet account. She’s hilarious!
