I have never been drawn to this genre - haven't read any of your recommendations - which is strange because I'm fascinated by the end of days drama. I'm putting a few on my list to be read. Defiance seems like a great entry for me, too. I have a weakness for swordplay, dragons, and romance.Debbiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10592313782672085208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-987167496142681464.post-5074483922625867012011-08-18T00:30:57.507+02:002011-08-18T00:30:57.507+02:00C.J. this story sounds wonderful!

City-states. Cloaks. Wagons. So you're vibe is RIGHT. :) However, there's also some technology available. Not the slick stuff we have now, but tech nonetheless. I found it very interesting to write a world combining medieval lifestyle with some technology.<br /><br />And YES to both the playlist and ROT & RUIN. Love both.<br /><br />Miss Lauren - Thank you so much!! =)C.J.

I also like that these interviews are helping me build a very neat playlist and are exposing me to some very cool music! I am also glad to see a bit here about Rot and Ruin.
