This never gets old. This is awesome.
finished this last night…easily my fave read of the year so far….the hard subjects and characters involved are all wrapped up in a wonderful flow of poetic and somewhat gentle prose…. book 2 incoming…can’t wait.

One of my favorite parts is that it made them want to read book 2, which is obviously the goal!!.
Just watched the @2ToRamble review of "By Blood, By Salt" for the SPFBO championship round, and it was SO much fun:

Well, this is just plain awesome. I am so honored. And excited. (and very slightly nervous, but we won't worry about that).
I have the follow-up to @JLNomad's #SPFBO champion By Blood By Salt. Purchased like book 1 with my own fair money!. Needs to be a great book to make me follow on into the series.

This review really caught me in the chest. Sometimes it shocks me to find that the story really does say exactly what I longed for it to say.
A slow-burn masterpiece with the emotional weight of literary fiction wrapped in the grit of military fantasy. @JLNomad’s debut floored me. Read my review on Goodreads:.
