A D Green’s Fantasy Newsletter November 2024

Hello Good People

It’s been a while since I last posted, I hope this finds you well.

Coming up in this newsletter:

  • Mindless rambling
  • Book News and Deals
  • Book reviews

Mindless Rambling

Thanksgiving is just around the corner for my US friends and followers, the starting gun for the run into Christmas, which over here in the UK has already begun in earnest in the shops and on the high street.

I like the idea of Thanksgiving. It sounds the most altruistic of the yearly holidays to me. The idea of spending the day with family and friends and eating a ton of food. It sounds a lot like my Christmas day but without the overbearing need to give gifts to people who don’t need anything just for the sake of it. As my mother-in-law likes to tell me, when she was a tiny girl she got an apple in a stocking and that was it. I’m not suggesting we go back to that… or am I? It’s nice to spoil the little ones, but it’s too much and too excessive these days it seems to me. (Ah, first-world problems.)   

Anywho, sorry to wax on. This is a fantasy newsletter so up your game Greenie!

Book News and Deals

I am having a special, 0.99 Kindle Countdown deal from the 28th of November through to the 5th of December on all 3 books, released so far in the Morhudrim Cycle. This deal is only available in the US and UK, which is an Amazon restriction. Again, I must apologize to the rest of the world for this slight but I’m pointing the finger here at you know who.

So look, instead of giving an apple for Christmas (see Mindless Rambling above) why not give an ebook? It’s for life and makes a great gift and everyone is digital these days, right? (not for the kiddies though).

Click on the pretty books to get the links on Amazon.

As for book 4, Chaos Reigns, I am progressing steadily (slower than I would like but it’s complicated) and I am really happy with where I am at.

Books Reviews

I have been tardy lately with my book reviews. This is mostly because I have been catching up on some series I have read, like He Who Fights Monsters and The Bladeborn Saga. Series that I highly recommend to you all.

I have not been totally barren of new fantasy reads, I just wasn’t taken away enough with any of the books I read to write a full review. Here are a couple of honourable mentions:

Qing’s Quest 1: A LitRPG Fantasy Adventure – It was an okay read. A little too obvious in the plot but the action was fun. If you like YA/Adult LitRPG take a look for yourself. I rated it 4 stars.

Wrong Divinity: Oh Sh*t! I F*cking Hate Spiders! – Okay I confess I picked this up on a whimsy because the title made me laugh. I mean comeon! It has Sh*t and F*ck in the title AND not one but two exclamation marks which seem to be a theme in the author’s book names. This is a role reversal LitRPG where the bad guys (goblins et al) are good and the good guys are not so much. It was kind of fun but it just wasn’t my thing. I feel a bit jaded with LitRPG at the moment. I rated it 4 stars.

Well, that’s it, folks. I might squeeze a Christmas/New Year newsletter out with my book of the year announcement so keep an eye out for it. Happy Thanksgiving to those who celebrate it and Merry Christmas to All (Just in case this is it for the year).

Stay Safe, Be Happy. Love and Peace.
