I’m very pleased today to welcome The Write Reads Cover Reveal for D.H. Willison’s brand-new audiobook, Harpyness is Only Skin Deep, on its publication day! I don’t have a lot of information about the book, but I do have a nifty cover image that we’ll get to here in a bit.
Book Details:
Series: Tales of Arvia, Book 1
Genre: Fantasy
About the Book:
Unassuming human Darin yearns with every fiber of his being to be that grand hero from countless books and games. When given the chance for a one-way trip to the fantastical world of Arvia, he quickly realizes he’s terrible at it. Yet the qualities he’s always undervalued—quick-wittedness and empathy—save his life when he encounters the ferocious harpy Rinloh.
Harpyness is Only Skin Deep is about friendships that defy all odds, laughing at the absurdities of life, and seeing the good in the worst monster in the realm.
The audiobook of Harpyness is Only Skin Deep is available from September 22nd in over 40 global retailers, including Spotify, Kobo, Libro.fm, and Apple.
About the Author:
D.H. Willison is a reader, writer, game enthusiast and developer, engineer, and history buff. He’s lived or worked in over a dozen countries, learning different cultures, viewpoints, and attitudes, which have influenced his writing, contributing to one of his major themes: alternate and creative conflict resolution. The same situations can be viewed by different cultures quite differently. Sometimes it leads to conflict, sometimes to hilarity. Both make for a great story.
He’s also never missed a chance to visit historic sites, from castle dungeons, to catacombs, to the holds of tall ships, to the tunnels of the Maginot Line. It might be considered research, except for the minor fact that his tales are all set on the whimsical and terrifying world of Arvia. Where giant mythic monsters are often more easily overcome with empathy than explosions.
