Revell Blog Tour About to Begin

Revell is launching a blog tour for my new book, The Homecoming, starting Monday. Almost 50 bloggers throughout the country will be reviewing the book on their blogs throughout the week. Some will also be doing interviews with me and giving away free copies of the book.

They received review copies of The Homecoming several weeks ago, to give them time to read it before the tour began. Several have already contacted me to share what they plan to say next week. Very encouraging stuff so far.

One of them named Michelle hadn't read the first book yet (The Unfinished Gift). So she read it and posted a very strong review on her blog today (a little Christmas in June). If you'd like to read it, click here.

I've been very busy since The Homecoming released a week ago. Trying to juggle all this activity while polishing up my 4th novel so I can send it in.

  1. Hi Dan,
    I'm reading The Homecoming right now and will have a review up later in the week. Really am enjoying it. I just wish I would have read The Unfinished Gift first. Thanks for your books.

  2. It's kind of hard, writing a sequel. Obviously those who've read the first book will get more out of the 2nd. But we worked hard trying to give The Homecoming a "life of its own."

    We also tried to minimize references to the first book so that people could go back and read it if they wanted, sort of as a prequel to The Homecoming. Except for knowing Shawn survives being shot down, there's very little overlap between the two.

    Thanks so much for helping to get the word out.

  4. Grannyvon,

    Not actually doing a giveaway on this blog, but one of the reviewers I read today is. You can enter by leaving a comment on her blog (Lena Nelson Dooley).

    You'll find it here (the place to enter is after the interview):
