Goblin Moon

[Teresa Edgerton]

I'm glad you enjoyed it so much!

No, the d---- business was not the work of an over-zealous copy-editor. That was just one of my little stylistic flourishes to make it look more like an 18th or 19th century novel (as with the chapter headings, and so forth). Probably but one of many private jokes that amused no one but me.

Did you like Skelbrooke, Gladestrider? I love his brooding, addicted, dangerous self.

And how about those country girls selling different things in the city as the seasons changed? Such a lovely recurring descriptive detail, they made the setting seem real and fully realized.

You were talking about a re-release, any news on that?
According to Amazon.com's reviews, the time setting is not medieval, which kind of fits in with another thread you got going.

There were some last minute delays on GM, and then the decision was made not to crowd the release of A Dark Sacrifice. Right now it's supposed to happen some time after the first of the year.

And yes, GM was one of the books I meant when I said that if I wanted to read a certain kind of book I usually found that I had to write it myself. I immersed myself completely in the 18th century when I was writing it. It's an inherently fantastic period, although many people don't realize it. They think of Samuel Johnson and George Washington, not Cagliostro and the Count de St. Germain. They think the Age of Reason, not an age of the wildest credulity and extravagance, but it was both.

I don't know if anyone checks this anymore, but I just finished Goblin Moon and am completely hooked. I want more stories of the characters...it's such a great world to lose yourself in when the demands of this one get to be too much some days.

And I absolutely loved the headings at the beginnings of chapters....a LOT of fun!

[Teresa Edgerton]

Thank you, hckygrl4, and welcome to the Chronicles.

As a matter of fact, I had a wonderful time writing those headings.

My enjoyment was running just a little thin by the time I neared the end of TGE.

And I think that coming up with something comparable for every chapter in a book would exhaust me now.

But at the time, it was a lot of fun.
