K.Childs

Recently I had a chance to ambush K.A.Doore and squirrel an interview from her just as her hit debut hit the shelves! At the time, I hadn't gotten a chance to grab a copy yet, but now it waits in my TBR pile and I cannot emphasise how excited I am by the details behind this novel! It combines two of my favourite things; murder and fantasy. This might pop on LGBT reader's radar and for a good reason.     Tell me a little about the culture you built in this book?

The beginning was a little slow to warm up, but the characters were solid and likable. Adrift cover from Goodreads I read the last half of the book in a single sitting as it accelerated pretty well into a fun and fast paced run. I found the climax really satisfying. For those wondering about the he...
