Title: Captain's Fury Release and Heorot News!
Post by: Priscellie on December 04, 2007, 09:17:38 PM
Captain's Fury, fourth novel in the Codex Alera, hits bookshelves in the US today!  If you can't make it to a bookstore or you don't live in the US, you can always order it from Amazon through the Jim-Butcher.com store (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0441015271/iagonet).

Also, we now have a blurb for the upcoming anthology My Big Fat Supernatural Honeymoon, edited by P.N. Elrod.  It shouldn't be too difficult to guess which mini-description applies to Jim's Dresden short story, "Heorot."

Quote
What newly married couple doesn't dream of a romantic retreat where they can escape the world for a while—but what happens when supernatural forces intrude on their wedded bliss?

Nine of today’s hottest paranormal authors answer that question in this all-star collection of supernatural stories. Can a vampire-hunter enjoy her honeymoon when she’s just learned that her new hubby is a werewolf? How can newlyweds focus on their wedding night when their honeymoon suite is haunted by feuding ghosts? And what’s a wizard to do when a gruesome monster kidnaps the bride on her way home from the wedding?

With so much otherworldly mayhem awaiting our newlyweds, will they ever get around to the honeymoon itself? Find out in…My Big Fat Supernatural Honeymoon.

The anthology is due in stores December 26th.  Pre-order it today (http://www.amazon.com/My-Big-Fat-Supernatural-Honeymoon/dp/0312375042/iagonet), and speculate here (http://www.jim-butcher.com/bb/index.php?topic=3578) on the forums.

Nah, I'm going to speculate here. I think Jim's is about the Vampire Hunter. Yeah.

Duh.  The "she" is a dead giveaway. 

And the werewolf spouse?  SPOILER:  Harry marries Tera West!

Hah! Tera's not actually a werewolf!

He marries Georgia after Billy is killed in a freak yodelling accident.
