Catch Fire! Blog Party!

Today is my blogging buddy's Catch Fire Blog Party to celebrate the release of CassaFire, Alex J. Cavanaugh's second novel and sequel to CassaStar, a top ten best seller on Amazon. The goal is to help CassaFire “catch fire” on the best seller charts and achieve the success of the first book.

There’s also a special package of prizes being given away at the author’s blog (copies of CassaFire, CassaStar, tote bag, mug, and bookmarks) as well as book giveaways during his two-week blog tour which runs from February 27 - March 9th.

See Alex’s site for more details: http://alexjcavanaugh.blogspot.com/

To find out more about Alex, check out his interview at Ray Gun Revival.


Here's a description of CassaFire:

CassaStar was just the beginning…

The Vindicarn War is a distant memory and Byron’s days of piloting Cosbolt fighters are over. He has kept the promise he made to his fallen mentor and friend - to probe space on an exploration vessel. Shuttle work is dull, but it’s a free and solitary existence. The senior officer is content with his life aboard the Rennather.


The detection of alien ruins sends the exploration ship to the distant planet of Tgren. If their scientists can decipher the language, they can unlock the secrets of this device. Is it a key to the Tgren’s civilization or a weapon of unimaginable power? Tensions mount as their new allies are suspicious of the Cassan’s technology and strange mental abilities.


To complicate matters, the Tgrens are showing signs of mental powers themselves; the strongest of which belongs to a pilot named Athee, a woman whose skills rival Byron’s unique abilities. Forced to train her mind and further develop her flying aptitude, he finds his patience strained. Add a reluctant friendship with a young scientist, and he feels invaded on every level. All Byron wanted was his privacy…

AND THE BEST PART IS, CASSAFIRE IS AVAILABLE TODAY!

First of all, I love the new look! I haven't talked to you in so long, Gwen! How is your writing going? The running? I see you changed things up, and hope to see more.

Nadja, I haven't "seen" you since last September, I think. I keep changing the look of my blog - I can't quite decide on a design:) So glad you stopped by!
