Shut Up & Read discussion

When a giant steps on someone, there's going to be a mess - that's a given. But our giants are unique. Our giants are not mindless, lumbering behemoths smashing everything in their path.

Vampires are popular, but our blood suckers are definitely NOT vampires. No glittering pretty boys or serial killers sleeping in coffins here. Our blood suckers have ethics that would be a credit to any decent human being. To me, they are the most interesting characters in the book.

There is no ancient evil waiting to unleash itself on the world, no quest for some ancient treasure, no sword duels. There is speculation on what a world at the beginning of an industrial revolution would look like if you could meld magic with science and engineering.

The book has politics, racism, wizards, and people trying to change their world.

We wanted to write something that was unique. Let us know if we did.

Well, it definitely sounds unique :)

My hope is that enough people are interested enough in something unique that they'll give it a look.
