On Tour Today: Christopher Hoare
6:51 AM
Welcome, Christopher Hoare! Christopher is currently on a virtual book tour with Pump Up
Your Book Promotion, talking about his new book, The Wildcat's Victory. This is the second in his Iskander series (Deadly Enterprise is first). The story focuses on Gisel Matah, a brave woman who works covertly to bring down the oppresive government which rules her land on an Alternate Earth. Keeping her "fledgling Radical movement" alive requires her to lie to friends as well as her lover, Yohan. Of course, Yohan has his own covert activities to keep secret.
When Gisel's old lover, General Lord Ricart, offers her command of a cavalry, she goes to war. She knows that "the fate of many nations hinges on her tactical and negotiating skills" (back cover). Gisel will confront "new friends, allies, and enemies as well as all the old ones" (back cover) as she fights valiantly for "The Wildcat's Victory."
Christopher Hoare is a retired surveyor who lives in Alberta, Canada with his wife of 37 years and Humane Society shelter dogs.
Hoare's novels can be purchased from Amazon, Barnes & Noble and other booksellers.
(Note: Unfortunately, I haven't had a chance to read this one yet, but I plan to start with the first book in this series and move on to The Wildcat's Victory - look for a review soon.)

Comments make me feel special, so go crazy! Just keep it clean and civil. Feel free to speak your mind (I always do), but be aware that I will delete any offensive comments.
P.S.: Don't panic if your comment doesn't show up right away. I have to approve each one before it posts to prevent spam. It's annoying, but it works!
