Project Manager Sarah Zettel tells us that Book View Café (BVC) “will be joining in the excitement as fans of member Katharine Kerr will be celebrating the successful conclusion of her Cycles of Deverry series. The event is called ’15 Days of Deverry’ and highlights the fact that the final book of the series (The Silver Mage, scheduled to be published on 3 November) will be the fifteenth.
“15 Days of Deverry is an online celebration of the successful conclusion of Katharine Kerr’s vision for this Celtic knot of inter-braided novels. The 15 Days stands for the 15 titles that constitute the cycle’s sequence. A livejournal community, deverry15, has been set up as a clearinghouse where links will be noted. If you post any Deverry related material on your blog, anywhere, please send the link to: rhi dot rose at gmail dot com. She’ll be collating the links.
“We encourage you to post about your experience reading these books, as well as to post your congratulations to the author and her grand vision. You can post about how and when you first read one of the books, what attracted you to the series, which of the Deverry heroes ranks #1 in the Hotness Factor, the overarching themes and structure of the series—or anything else about the Deverry world and books that has affected you. We hope you all will share your own unique views of Katharine Kerr’s achievement.
“We’re very excited by the successful completion of this Grand Fantasy Vision, so we’re throwing a big party to celebrate! All of you are special guests. Please come! Post often! Bring your friends, your dog, your cat and your dragon too!”
