Bloodrush

For your alternate history meets the weird west, Boodrush is the book to read.Bloodrush is an interesting book indeed. With a setting and story that combines the likes of the weird wild west with faeries, Bloodrush wins some serious creativity points. Bloodrush is a pretty good stand-in example for all that's good â and bad -- about indie fantasy: you get a richly developed world, some unique ideas, a weird-yet fascinating setting, a solid story, and decent prose; yet while other hand, you endure a still somewhat unpolished book with unpolished prose and characterization. Basically, it's a flawed jewel and the sort of book that you will want to sift the depths of the self pub fantasy world to find. And while the book may be wildly uneven in parts, vacillating between outstanding to good then mediocre and back to good again, it's still a worthwhile effort. The book took second place on Mark Lawrence's Self Pub Blog Off competition as well, just coming behind our top of the list entry, .The Thief Whole Pulled on Trouble's Braids. Overall, Bloodrush is an great indie fantasy that has the solid potential, with round or two of professional editing, to land a traditional publishing contract.So for the most part, Bloodrush can stand toe to toe with anything you might find in the bookstore fantasy section. As to whether the author will stick to self pub model or go the hybrid publishing route that other talented self-published authors have gone remains to be seen.Those looking for some quality indie fantasy -- a book that stands out from most of the others around it -- read this one. Highly recommended and at (of time of writing) only $2.50 on Amazon.com which is a worthy bargain for what you get.
