CassaStorm is Out! and Upper Canada Village Horse Lovers' Weekend and ROW80

elcome!

This week we're celebrating the release of CassaStorm!

I had one question for Alex...

If you could organize a dream book tour, where would you go/how would you organize it?

Well, I'd hire someone to organize it, that's for sure. We’re traveling the globe – going to New Zealand, back to the Orient and United Kingdom, through the Scandinavian countries... Wait, I'd actually have to make appearances for my books? Well, that doesn't sound like fun!

I could help organize one in Turkey! But not having to make public appearances is the best part of a blog tour!

CassaStorm by Alex J Cavanaugh

From the Amazon Best Selling Series!

A storm gathers across the galaxy...

Commanding the Cassan base on Tgren, Byron thought he'd put the days of battle behind him. As a galaxy-wide war encroaches upon the desert planet, Byron's ideal life is threatened and he’s caught between the Tgrens and the Cassans.

After enemy ships attack the desert planet, Byron discovers another battle within his own family. The declaration of war between all ten races triggers nightmares in his son, threatening to destroy the boy's mind.

Meanwhile the ancient alien ship is transmitting a code that might signal the end of all life in the galaxy. And the mysterious probe that almost destroyed Tgren twenty years ago could return. As his world begins to crumble, Byron suspects a connection. The storm is about to break, and Byron is caught in the middle...

"CassaStorm is a touching and mesmerizing space opera full of action and emotion with strong characters and a cosmic mystery." – Edi's Book Lighhouse

"...mesmerizing story of survival, personal sacrifice, tolerance, and compassion. It's a rare jewel that successfully utilizes both character and plot to tell a story of such immense scope and intimate passion..." –Nancy S. Thompson, author of The Mistaken

Meanwhile, speaking of travels... of the non inter-stellar kind... the other day I was on Beth's blog talking about Istanbul!

And I've got more photos from the 19th Century Upper Canada Village! It was Horse Lovers' Weekend a couple of weekends ago and there was lots to see!

Brief ROW80 update - this month's forum exercise is going really well! And I've been typing. If I manage to type every single day between now and 1 November, without one day off, I just might finish typing Captive of the Sea before NaNoWriMo starts and I focus on a whole new story.

Any last minute summer vacations?

Or do you already have plans for autumn (and spring down under!)

Who's doing NaNo this year?
