The author of Violence & Vigilance, David T. List, reached out to me last week and I excitedly invited him for a spotlight on the blog. I’ve seen the cover for his new book before and thought it looked really awesome so I wanted to make sure to show this book off to you all on its pub day, which is today! Below, you’ll find the usual information I post for books and their authors but if you’d like to know more, there are also interviews available of two main characters that are really fun so make sure to check those out as well. There is one for Kraus and one for Irdessa.

Blurb
Violence & Vigilance is book one of Turesia Untamed, an epic fantasy series featuring an eternal vendetta, scars of grief and loss, untethered rage, and hope against all odds.
Irdessa the Undying, a renowned arena fighter in Fohrvylda, has escaped imprisonment but at great cost. Broken and alone, she must outwit and outfight her pursuers.
Basalt Kale, a failed Consonant monk of the lowest order, embarks on a quest to improve Ausgan but discovers vile secrets of his order that he cannot abide.
The heathens of Fohrvylda amass ships and beasts of war to sail the Faithless Sea and assault the monks of Ausgan, who will greet the steel-bearing invaders with elemental destruction.
Violence & Vigilance is a story of survival with dark humor, exotic settings, savage beasts, and damaged characters. If you enjoy the grittiness of Joe Abercrombie’s First Law or the urgency of Pierce Brown’s Red Rising, you’ll love Violence & Vigilance.
Author Bio & Info
David hails from the humid subtropics of the southeastern US, where he writes fantasy fiction, plays bass, explores the wilderness, and kicks it with his family. He’s adept at trouble-shooting, thanks largely to his proficiency at trouble-making, and puts both to use creatively to bring to life unlikely creatures, unique settings and situations, and villainous heroes.
He posts monthly news at https://DavidTList.com regarding writing, his kayak business, and random odds and ends. He’s on Twitter, Facebook, and IG (David T List or DavidTList) and would love for you to swing by and pay him a visit!

This looks and sounds awesome! If I wasn’t already buried in a mountainous TBR I’ve be looking to dive right into this one. I’m at least going to add it to the pile in hopes of getting to it someday!
