And YAY you requested Devil's Kiss from the library, I just did a dance around the room =D<br /><br />@Jodie-AGREED, the scenes between Billi and any potential love interest are excellent. I almost liked them better than the actual action scenes in the 2nd book!<br /><br />The bit about moral ambiguity was brillant and yes it is nice to know that our warriors have doubts and realize they are not always on the right side (or at least we realize they are not). Your interview was really hard to follow up!<br /><br />@campbele-You know I'm an absolute chicken, I had to read Half World at spurts in the daylight. That is not the case for this series. It's bloddy yes but not really scary. Hard to explain but as long as you read them, I don't care where you do it (although I have a feeling you will get so wrapped up in the story it won't matter....)<br /><br />@Christina T-Mitali Perkins and Sarwat Chadda need way more exposure, that's what we book bloggers are here for :)<br /><br />We need a Billi #3 campaign! And so glad you liked the interview.MissAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11042352415616854651noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5255886452367019317.post-41452195662385257542011-02-05T11:11:16.291-06:002011-02-05T11:11:16.291-06:00Fantastic review!

There are authors out there like Sarwat and Mitali Perkins who are making a difference in that but their books need more exposure. <br /><br />I loved Devil's Kiss and Dark Goddess and look forward to reading more about Billi.Christina Thttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07756342293865115352noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5255886452367019317.post-86024851891459990592011-02-04T08:34:03.817-06:002011-02-04T08:34:03.817-06:00I received a copy of Dark Goddess recently with th...I received a copy of Dark Goddess recently with the intention to review. Ari, you already know I'm a chicken when it comes to reading. I didn't realize there would be paranormal in this book, I just wanted to support Mr Chadda, and this interview makes me want to support him that much more. I do find the context of the story appealing as well as the way Chadda cares about people and situations. Maybe I'll read it, if only bit by bit during daylight.<br />Maybe he really didn't find love at McDonalds? McDonalds seems uncharacteristic somehow.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5255886452367019317.post-84086437970061390902011-02-03T04:24:29.515-06:002011-02-03T04:24:29.515-06:00Love this interview.

Craftsmanship triumphs :)<br /><br />'I think you should always be wary of making heroes of warriors.' This is my favourite part. Moral ambiguity is always somehow reassuring to see in characters who actually fight the good fight.Jodiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11462660276240016464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5255886452367019317.post-10418684696310620542011-02-02T12:50:52.481-06:002011-02-02T12:50:52.481-06:00How fun and exciting to read!

I look forward to diving into it.<br /><br />Sarwat (if I may), I second Ari: you have a great sense of humor. :DAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5255886452367019317.post-82260501969409777022011-02-02T12:49:05.082-06:002011-02-02T12:49:05.082-06:00I'm Elaine - that part is MINE MINE MINE ( i a...I'm Elaine - that part is MINE MINE MINE ( i actually growled there, sorry about that...)Kathryn Evanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16439670363289229014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5255886452367019317.post-14555236015388892082011-02-02T12:32:24.780-06:002011-02-02T12:32:24.780-06:00Love this interview!
