This week our very special guests were the dynamo writing (and life) team, Angel Haze & Slade Sewell! This was one of our more entertaining shows, and it is obvious we don't have a censoring delay because we had a couple little language slip ups (so this one probably isn't for innocent ears). But, these guys had lots of interesting things to talk about, including some pretty awesome books!
Listen to internet radio with JournalJabber on Blog Talk Radio
Those awesome books are Bloodletter and Legacies of Talimura: War of the Witch. I haven't done reviews for these yet, so look for those in the near future.

Goodreads' Synopsis:
Thou shalt not kill.
A contradictory message written in blood at the scene of a young woman's murder. Within days, another body surfaces with a similar calling card and, to Detective Ramon Faust and Criminalist Kelly Garret, it's clear a deadly game is underfoot.
As the rash of horrific crimes continue, a phone call unearths a shocking revelation: Nakeita isn't the first city the elusive killer has left his mark. The Bloodletter, as dubbed by the media, has played his deadly game before.
Delving deep into the most terrifying case of Kelly's career, threatening phone calls and flashbacks of a forgotten near-death experience challenge her sanity and the lives of everyone she loves.

Goodreads' Synopsis:
Debonair, a witch from the Unspoken Lands, has meddled in the forbidden practice of magic and created an army of nightmarish proportions. When sixteen-year-old Astanyx and his two best friends return from a hunting trip to find their small town of Polca reduced to smoke and ash, they find themselves thrust into a battle for which they haven't been trained.
With the help of his comrades, including an esteemed warrior, one of the last great wizards and a princess they've sworn to protect, Astanyx must fight to unite the kingdoms of the humans, dwarves and elves. He must ask forbidden questions that no one wants to answer, questions about Talimura's dark history. As Debonair's brutal warriors lay siege to the kingdoms, Astanyx is driven to pursue a fateful quest for a blade powerful enough to defeat the malevolent witch before she destroys the three kingdoms and unleashes an unspeakable ancient evil.
How about those fab covers? The art credits go to Claudia at PhatPuppy Art. She has some absolutely gorgeous work!!!

Last week, our special guest was Lynn Rush, author of Wasteland. She also played three facts and her FALSE fact was that her favorite animals are cats. Nope, this lady is a dog lover!
It is almost mid-November which means the American's will soon be stuffing themselves with lots of turkey, stuffing, and cranberry sauce! And, before we know it Christmas will be upon us! We have a couple exciting things going on this holiday season...
Proceeds from this book will be donated to the National Coalition Against Domestic Violence, and complimentary copies will be donated to Operation Book Drop. This is for two FANTASTIC causes, so we want you all to buy TONS of copies!!
For our JournalJabber Christmas show, we are inviting your spirited spawn (that's your kids) onto the show to read their favorite Christmas story!! It is going to be so FUN!
