South Coast

South Coast Cover Art
So I felt guilty about having this book sitting beside me for – literally – months when all I needed to do was spend a couple of days correcting the files. The hard work was done and I just kept putting it off.

So.

Here’s a paperback. Now I’m only three behind.

  1. You are a fine person. Now I have to remember to pick it up when it comes out in pb. Thank you!

      1. D’oh! I thought you were saying you had corrected the galleys, and now they were off to the printer. *shuffles off to look for the pb*

  2. Sar is my favorite author in the past decade for sure, top 5 all time.

    But for the life of me I can not even DOWNLOAD this series. I’ve read Ish’s books a million times over and told everyone to buy them, but why is it that I can’t even download the first book to read?

    Am I the only one with this glitch? It’s not technical, it’s something rolling around in my brain probably.

    Someone give me a reason to start. Maybe threaten me a little.

    1. What’s the problem? Don’t like the cover? Don’t want to know about what life is like for a South Coast shaman?

    2. A very peculiar glitch. Maybe you suffer from Thalassophobia?

      The book reads like every other Lowell book: You open it and before you know it you have finished it. And are probably very hungry since you kinda forgot to eat. “Only one more page …”

      As for threats… How about this: if you don´t read it you will very soon be the only Lowell Fan that has not read all the books. We other, Real Fans may start to question your sincerity and fandom. Just sayin…

      I will give you a reason to read though: Welkies!

    3. I kind of understand as I have never picked up the Tanyth Fairport novels, but I loved South Coast.

      If you like the Golden Age, South Coast provides insight into how those corporate planets provide enough food for export via all of those Clipper Ships that dock at the space stations orbiting planets.

      I think this book is excellent and the evolution of the central family (the Kruggs who I still want to know if/how they are related to Sarah) is just as engaging a journey as that of Ishmael. I think Jimmy and Tony were a little dumber than corporate leadership would typically be even with nepotism, but it is a minor criticism.

      Definitely worth a read or, better yet, listen to it as a free podcast.
