Jason Nahrung of the Brisbane Courier-Mail wrote a review of Heart of the Mirage this last weekend. Alas, I haven't seen it yet. It is not online that I can find. I am told that it was a good one, and my lovely publicist is posting a copy to my home address - but I won't be home for another two weeks! So this pathetically insecure author has to scrounge up a dose of patience...
All I have to sate my impatient soul is this:
‘Glenda Larke…. has again managed to add a thoughtful twist to the fantasy genre.’
All of which makes me think that in this connected world of instant gratification, we have actually forgotten how to wait. I wonder if we have thereby also denied ourselves one of the joys of living: anticipation.
About Me
- Glenda Larke
- Malaysia
- My life has been described by one of my editors as “impossibly exotic” – although really it is not my life, but me, that’s the exotic. I’m the uprooted plant, the exotic who doesn’t belong, always living in someone else’s backyard...
An Australian living in Malaysia. Writer, traveler, environmentalist. Author of The Isles of Glory trilogy (The Aware, Gilfeather, The Tainted); The Mirage Makers trilogy (Heart of the Mirage, The Shadow of Tyr, Song of the Shiver Barrens) and, writing as Glenda Noramly, a stand-alone book Havenstar. The latest trilogy is called The Watergivers in Australia and the Stormlord trilogy elsewhere: THE LAST STORMLORD, STORMLORD RISING, STORMLORD'S EXILE
Havenstar

Nah. Anticipation is over rated. What happens if you get hit by a bus in the meantime?

who hates waiting with a vengeance and has been hit by a truck, which is almost as bad as a bus.
Ah, but then you'd die happy ...wouldn't you? Oddly enough, after writing this post, I had some extra good news that I had been hoping for (rather than anticipating) for 8 months. So long in fact, that I had almost forgotten it was possible. And I can't tell anyone yet, which is frustrating.
Are you still planning for phoning me while you're in the States?...
