Three Bs: Back Home; Birthdays; Book Launches
Back Home!
Yes, we are back home after being gone almost a month, much of which was spent in Mali (with a lightning detour to Burkina Faso) and four days of which introduced us to bitterly cold but positively lovely Paris. Also, adding to the B theme, we met the publishers and staff of my new French publishers, Bragelonne, about whom I cannot say enough good things, although I'm actually being published within their imprint Milady. But more on that (and on meeting Jasper Kent, esteemed author of Twelve) later.
Birthdays!

sfmarty and al_zorra, that I know of. And, more belatedly, my niece Kaley and my niece Celia.
Book launches!
Jade Man's Skin by Daniel Fox
The Dark-Eyes' War by David B. Coe
The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms by N.K. Jemisin
Spellwright by Blake Charlton
I gave a quote for The Hundred Thousand Kingdoms and for Spellwright, and I gave quotes for the first volumes of the respective series by Fox and Coe. Therefore, all these fantasies come recommended.
I know there are new releases I know about and want to mention that I've forgotten here, but I really did just get back and am a bit disorganized still.
Also, and finally, I have seen the cover rough of Cold Magic and really really like it (which in reserved Scandinavian-American terms means I'm SUPER EXCITED), but I can't show it to you until I get the final.
