Gathering String is free today at the Kindle Store (the price goes back up to $5.99 Sunday).
Lynn Hicks of the Des Moines Register wrote about Gathering String (second item in the linked roundup), saying the novel was “getting strong reviews from Iowans and journalists around the country.”
Another of those reviews came this week on Amazon, from Iowa journalist Brian Smith:
I don’t know the last time I was this excited to read a book. I was so hooked and found myself rooting for and against different characters. I don’t know the last time I actually yelled out loud while reading a book. I can’t wait for the sequel.
