Chapter 3.7: Book Blog Friday: From India to Afganistan

Wow, I just realized I haven't posted anything since last week. Sad day. Anyway, it's book day and it's being done early this week because my parents are coming up. Yay! So here is the video for this week.



Also, one of the authors I love, Jeaniene Frost, is helping out a fellow author who was kind to her when she was nervous and a new author. Michael Spradlin has a family member with serious medical issues that he's helping, which means he's not able to promote his newest book. So Jeaniene decided to help him out and spread the word. And she's enlisted the help of her fans*. So here is the info about Michael and his book:

Michael Spradlin’s third novel in his Youngest Templar series, ORPHAN OF DESTINY, comes out on October 28th.

Description:
Tristan and his companions—the fiery archer Robard Hode and the assassin maid Maryam—have escaped to England. But tragedy has occurred to Tristan’s beloved abbey while they were on the Third Crusade, and Robard’s home in Sherwood Forest suffers under the rule of the Sheriff of Nottingham. Many obstacles still prevent them from delivering the Holy Grail into safe hands. Tristan must defeat the evil Sir Hugh in one final battle. And he must learn the secret of his birth, a secret Richard the Lionheart and Eleanor of Aquitaine are willing to kill to protect!

I've read some of Spradlin's other books: Live and Let Shop and From Hawaii With Love. And he is actually very funny and sarcastic and a good writer. I haven't read the Templar series, but I may have to put it on my to be read list. Which is now about half a mile long. (No really, I think if I laid all the books down, side by side by side, it might reach half a mile)

So anyway, happy Thursday and go have some fun with literacy.
