Forgot to post a status update yesterday, so here’s two for the price of one. Or, well, one that includes the value of two. Or something.
I should also say that it’s starting to look absolutely inevitable that I’m going to have to increase the target word count on this book, but I’m still not doing so purely out of a meaningless stubbornness. 😛

I have been asked by several different people to go into more detail on who The Goblin Corps is, and is not, appropriate for.
My answer is this: "Appropriate"? Nobody. If you’re a human being between the ages of zero and 247, and are not currently serving a life sentence, the book’s probably not "appropriate" for you.
But as to who would enjoy it? Well, a lot of you. If you don’t mind rooting for the bad guys (and I don’t mean bad guys who are cleaned up and are basically good guys with a little gray, or antiheroes, I mean bad guys); if you enjoy wading knee-deep through sarcastic humor; if you aren’t fucking offended by shitloads of profanity; if Conan doesn’t have nearly enough blood for you; and, mostly, if the idea of "Quentin Tarantino meets J.R.R. Tolkien" appeals to you, then I think you’ll enjoy the book.
Just don’t expect anything "appropriate." 😉
