Another boost for a series you might have missed: L. Jagi Lamplighter's Prospero's Children, a trilogy of a different sort. This was my editor's first series, released a while back. But it still remains popular with readers for a reason.
This story is a sort of sequel to Shakespeare's The Tempest done in a sot of secret history meets urban fantasy style with a dab of Roger Zelazny. She expertly juggles a lot of a different mythologies to make a full cohesive world. It isn't quite like anything out there.
The description:
Miranda, daughter of the magician Prospero from Shakespeare’s Tempest, lives in the modern age. Upon discovering that her father has gone missing, she must discover the location of her other siblings and convince them to save their father, before the Three Shadowed Ones destroy the Family Prospero. She is accompanied by her company gumshoe, an airy spirit stuck in a body that looks a bit like Humphrey Bogart. Humor, mystery, wonder.
Describing any further while probably go into spoilers. For now, it is enough to say that this trilogy is a bit different from the norm. We could always use something like that today.
NewPub is still on fire. Behind the scenes there are many writers working to get as many books out as possible. There is a whole new industry out there. So why stick with the old? There is nothing there but decay.
However, out here, the sky is the limit. And even that might be selling it too short! 2021 is going to be a big year.
But that aside, there is still much to pick up right now. Check out Prospero's Children today!
You can also check out her other series, Books of Unexpected Enlightenment which can be found at Silver Empire as well as Amazon. This is an ongoing Young Adult-style series full of magic and wonder. Check it out today!
