Almost Ready for Print!

This is a big month, as my first two novels (both collaborations) to see print and I'm really excited! My collaboration with Win Scott Eckert is A Girl and Her Cat is now available for pre-order from Amazon (more in my next post.)

My other collaboration is The Vampire Count of Monte Cristo written with the amazing Alexandre Dumas. It's the tender story of Edmund Dantes, a young sailor in Napoleon era France with a promising career, a beloved father, and a beautiful fiancee. Of course, any time a story begins like that, you know there's got to be trouble. Edmond finds himself in a perfect storm as jealous enemies and a prosecutor with a guilty secret conspire to steal his love, his future, and his life. Locked in the dungeons of the dreaded Chateau D'if, Edmund encounters a mysterious man with occult skills and makes a dark pact with unholy powers to gain the power to become a creature of the night and seek his revenge.

Here's a first look at the cover:

It's high adventure meets dark magic, with romance and intrigue galore!

My co-writer, Alexandre Dumas, is excited too. Here's what he has to say.

Bon sang! Quel est le lien américaine fait avec mon histoire?
