Yeah. Not that the spammer really cares, but no we don't know what Blue Boots is about, as already stated in this topic. 22

But [[Songs of Love and Death]] now has a cover and it's already available for preorders. Smiling

Radar Surrender

I'm officially going nuts over "Songs". Someone listed an ARC copy on eBay today and I'm visiting review blogs DAILY to find any comments on "Blue Boots" (a couple that reported receiving a review copy and other just random but promising blogs) but there's NOTHING so far... and only a month until it comes out! And the worst part is that Robin herself blogged about it last weekend and didn't give ANY clues to what her story is about. Last time I asked her, she said it's "about blue boots". Wink

nice and cruel.


Note:
when 'thul write in all italics, it is the lord of the three realms within 'thul speaking. A fairly egoistical, but also somewhat simple-minded dragon. Do not take such posts at face value.

Actually, I immediately wondered if the story could be RotE-related as the names of the lord and lady were both 'characteristics', and would therefore follow Six Duchies tradition...here's hoping!

Thanks Mervi, though I'm just happy to help out where I can Flowers .

New information about "Blue Boots" can be found in this review. Heavy spoilers!

[+]Spoiler
Orphaned Timbal is a kitchenmaid at Timberrock Keep, where she impractically lets herself be seduced by Lady Lucent’s flirtatious minstrel, Azen, who admires the blue boots her father bought her just before he was killed.

She would never be able to look her husband in the face and say, “Never have I known any man but you.” That was gone, carried off by the golden tongue of a minstrel.

But Azen leaves with the Lady on a rumored assignation, and Timbal realizes she has been a fool.

A traditional romance with a well-realized, likable protagonist in Timbal. It’s easy to be happy at her eventual good fortune. The character names are unfortunate, however.
