On Tour with Prism Book Tours















The Herbwomen of secret lore

The World of The Staff & the Sword

The Readers of the cast lots

The Watchmen, elite warriors

The Clergy of power



LAUNCH-DAY BLAST! 



1/23 - Backing Books - Herbwomen Beginning

      the herbwomen were the seeds of a reformation      

1/24 – Christian Novels – Review – World Creation

"I elected to use a setting I knew very well: Rock Island State Park in Tennessee. It’s a beautiful place with waterfalls and lush hills and rugged terrain".

1/25 – I Am a Reader, Not a Writer – Readers Patrick Carr on Origins 

If I didn’t come up with some kind of limitation, I was going to have a book filled with the equivalent of a bunch of super-wizards



1/27 – Reads to Reels – Watchmen Beginning

Why do the men of the watch wear black? How come none of them have last names?

1/28 – LDS & Lovin’ It - Clergy Origins

I decided to name the collection of benefices the judica. In Latin, judica means judge. So the catch phrase of the benefices became “Judica me Deas” which would be the equivalent of “Judge me, O Lord.”

1/29 – Proud Book Nerd - World Visuals

I am very much interested to see where this series is going, and will be eagerly waiting for Book 2, The Hero’s Lot.

1/30 – Open the Page - Herbwomen Goals

we find that the herbwomen had perhaps the biggest secret of all

1/31 – Wonderings of One Person – Review - Readers Goals

Errol became my Luke Skywalker and I needed to come up with an Obi-wan Kenobi.


2/1 – RELEASE-DAY BLAST! 



2/3 – Simple Wyrdings - Watchmen Elite Warriors

I really really liked this book!

2/4 – Bookworm Lisa – Review – Clergy Goals

This book is very well written and appealing.

2/5 – Passion & Life – Readers Excerpt from Patrick Carr

This is probably one of my favorite excerpts from the entire series. It was so much fun to write...

2/6 – Kari’s Crowded Bookshelf – Review Herbwomen Visuals

I like how the whole book had a very medieval feel to it... I couldn't put it down.

2/7 – Coffee, Books & Me - Readers Visuals

  


2/8 – Backing Books – Review – World Goals


Errol is perhaps the most realistic hero I have ever read about.

2/10 – Letters to the Cosmos - Watchmen by Patrick Carr

The next guy, Merodach was easy. As soon as I described him as having hair so blond it was almost silver and blue eyes, I knew Rutger Hauer was the perfect model. I loved him in the movie “Ladyhawke.”

2/11 – Colorimetry – Clergy Excerpt

"Only a fool could fail to see you have a story to tell and I would not
have it said that I kept an injured man on his feet."


2/12 – ADD Librarian Herbwomen Excerpt

Sometimes a book comes along that you didn’t know you were waiting for until you read it, and somehow your world is more complete.

2/13 – Worthy 2 Read – Review - Watchmen Excerpt

Forsaking their names, they called themselves the watch and... swore an oath never to outlive their king in battle again.

2/15 – Pieces of Whimsy – Review - Readers Excerpt

I was hooked from the first page. I fell in love with the writing, the style and the way the words flowed. The story also grabbed from the beginning, it was exciting and adventurous and deep, and I couldn't stop reading!



2/17 – CTF Devourer – Review

 The best spiritual reference is actually the night Errol stays with the priest he delivered a message to. Not having gone this long without a drink in years, he is sick the whole night through, but rather than the judgment and condemnation like he receives from his local church leader, this priest shows compassion and grace, promising and following through on the promise, to help Errol through the night.

2/18 – Pause Time - Readers Visuals

I'm a difficult reader to please within the fantasy/medieval genre, because I'm not really into it... Now I'm pleased to say that A Cast of Stones is another one of the rarities  that manages to captivate me with its world and that Patrick Carr is definitely one to watch.

2/19 – A Backwards Story – Review – World Excerpt

Sudden pains shot through his calves and he grimaced, struggling against unaccustomed weariness. He shouldn’t be tired. He’d run this trail and others as difficult a thousand times.

2/19 - Christy’s Cozy Corner – Herbwomen Excerpt


Errol stepped toward the herbwoman. Her head rested against the bars in front of him, her eyes milky with blindness.

One shriveled hand stretched through, touched him on the face. It was warm. A voice too soft to carry past the bars greeted him. Old eyes gazed at him in wonder. “You’ve been touched by Aurae. Thank the creator! I did not know any of the solis yet lived.” She paused. “Deas’ hand is on you.”



2/20 – Min Reads & Reviews – Watchmen Excerpt


“Errol Stone.” 

The lieutenant nodded. “An
orphan."
