Another interview

Okay, this actually isn't an interview with me. Rather it's an interview with space pirate captain Ellison Firebrandt, the protagonist of my novel The Pirates of Sufiro. The interview forms part of Laura Givens' ongoing web comic, "On the Air With Nicodemus Dare" and may be found at: www.talesofthetalisman.com/comics.html

The comic was posted today, August 24 and will be available for two weeks. Hope you'll drop by to see what Firebrandt has to say for himself. I was even surprised (and a little scared) by what he said!
