My guest today on the Online for Authors podcast is B Marcus Walker, author of the book Spirit of the Plain. Originally from Chicago’s south side, Brian Walker has worked twenty years in numerous industries as a web and eLearning developer, facilitator, and project manager. His true passion has been as a writer of fiction, both genre and literary. You can find his writing on Medium in publications including Thought Thinkers, ILLUMINATION, and Morning Musings, as well as short fiction in the Minetta Review. His first novel, Spirit of the Plain, is available in print and eBook.
In my book review, I stated Spirit of the Plan by B Marcus Walker is Book 1 of a fantasy series. If you are a fantasy lover, this one has all the essential elements – mages, witchcraft, wolfmen, worlds and cultures colliding, Love, and intrigue! Even as someone who usually doesn’t read fantasy, I enjoyed the book and read far later into the night than I should have.
Several characters stood out to me, including Collier Truitt – a man forced to flee his country at the threat of death to a tribe that was once his father’s. He struggles with seeking retribution or peace. There is also Ashlyn, an acolyte mage, who is tasked to rid the Plains of its controlling spirit. She is young but more powerful than she understands. And finally, I loved Arnak, a wolfman known as a Lyken. His grumpy style made me laugh, but his insights were often spot-on.
The author did a good job pulling me into the story, even as a non-fantasy reader. Definitely a novel to consider for your TBR!
