This book is shaping up to be as interesting and entertaining as the first!

Thank you, Gail.
A lot more things happen in book 2, and in less time.

Hello, listeners. Are you interested in seeing The Prophet of Panamindorah in some kind of text format? If so, nip on over to Long Tale Press (just google them) and vote for Prophet. Mur mentioned this press in _I Should Be Writing_ 101, and I thought it was a neat idea. A publisher puts their slush pile online and lets readers vote on which manuscripts to acquire. The site is still very new. If you like the concept, check it out even if you don’t vote for my book.

Sorry to be a flake, guys, but disregard my previous post. I still think this press has a great idea, but the execution needs to be reconsidered. Right now they’re asking too much for too little.

Abbie, The story has take just enough forks, that with the hebdomadal serialization, I’m losing track of characters. Could you put a list of characters on your site?

Quandmeme – There you go, alphabetically: http://www.panamindorah.com/?page_id=67 . I’m sure I’ve missed some. I’ll tweak it over the next few days.
You’ve just about reached the point in the story where I’ve got the maximum number of balls in the air. The threads start to converge pretty soon. Another listener has been telling me I should do story-so-far’s and story-to-come’s. I dislike those things in other people’s podcasts and always fast forward through them, but I can see why they would have been helpful in Prophet. I’m considering doing them for my next story. I’m assuming you would vote for them?

Fantastic ideas and characters. It is challenging to follow at times in audio book form. I also vote for some kind of recap.

Thanks Barry! I’m glad you’re enjoying the story. My next project will probably have recaps on at least one feed. In the meantime, the text is available on my website if anyone prefers the story that way. I’d like to release the third book of this project over a shorter time span, so that people aren’t waiting as long between episodes.

Abigail has written an outstanding sequel and does a wonderful job reading.

Miss Hilton provides a wondrous ride through a vividly realized world populated by diverse, engaging characters. Prophet offers a fun and complex plot with multiple lines crisscrossing and woven together through three “volumes” of story. Abbie’s narration and unobtrusive music and sound effects only add to the deeply imaginative tale she’s offered the world. Book Two blows the story wide open and expands the conflict to epic proportions. Kid friendly from about 8-10 years old, but there’s plenty here for an adult fan of the fantasy genre. Highly recommended.

Yes, “kid friendly,” because eight-year-olds should hear about torture. Don’t get me wrong, the book is fine, but I really don’t think it’s kid friendly; teens and up only.

A richly developed world, round, appealing characters, satisfying mysteries, and plot twists galore! The best fantasy novel i’ve read in a while. Accessible to younger readers, but devious and strategic enough to engage adults as well.
