I’m very pleased today to welcome The Write Reads Blog Tour for Adam Holcombe’s, A Necromancer Called Gam Gam! Now, I read this back in 2023, so in addition to this Spotlight, I’ll be reposting what I said then–I’ll also be reposting what I said about the first two short stories in the series, “The Knight Revenant” and “Nugget’s Tenth Life“. But it’s not just re-runs here today, nosiree Bob! I have A Few Quick Questions with Adam Holcombe coming up in a little bit, too! (these links will actually work when the posts go up). If you take a look at the feed for https://twitter.com/WriteReadsTours over the next few days, you’ll see a lot of bloggers who had interesting things to say about it. A Necromancer Called Gam Gam was the 2nd Place Finalist for the 2024 Book Blogger’s Novel of the Year Award, so you know there’s a lot of good to be said about it–but before getting to this Spotlight, let’s start with a word about BBNYA.

About the Author:

Adam HolcombeAdam Holcombe daylights as a programmer and moonlights as an author. After spending years toying with the idea of writing, he decided to fully commit and work toward releasing his first novel. Then Gam Gam got in the way, and his first novel became his first novella. The novel will come later. When he’s not locked in a cold basement, typing away, he can be found hanging out with his wife, his dog, and his tortoise or playing D&D or board games with friends.
