AUTHOR'S BIO:
Linda Suzane is pursing her lifelong dream to be a full
time writer. Her passions include vampires, murder, and mystery. Her first book
was published originally as an eBook. The Murder
Game is a romantic mystery about a murder mystery
game designer whose mystery game goes murderously wrong. In September 2008,
The Murder Game was
reprinted by Wings ePress, Inc. and is now available in both print and eBook.
Like her heroine, Linda enjoys designing mystery games to entertain her friends.
You can find her games at
the Internet’s largest supplier of downloadable games. When not writing about
murder and mystery, she is writing about vampires. The first in the Darkhour
Vampire series, Captivity,
is available from Wings ePress, Inc..
Sometimes she combines her interest in murder, mystery,
and vampires as she did in her novel the Eyes of
Truth, a fantasy mystery which includes two
different breeds of vampire the Wo-nur and the Dolzi, pitting mythical Wo-nur
against the stark reality of the Dolzi, exploring how legends and superstition
can terrify, but reality can destroy.
Linda lives in a small rural town in the foothills of Oregon’s
Willamette Valley with her husband of over 40 years. They share their home with
their son-in-law, daughter, and two grandchildren, somehow making a
multi-generational family work. One thing Linda has learned is that a set of
good earphones and loud music are essential ingredients to being able to write
in a noisy and lively household.
REVIEWS/QUOTES:
“Not a vampire devotee, I had no preconceived notions when I began reading Captivity by Linda Suzane....An unequivocal thumbs-up!” --Christine Janssen, author of Dark Legacy
“I'm awaiting the next book in what promises to be an entertaining new series...” --Kate Hill, author of the God of Grim.
Linda Suzane pulls off this vampires' tale with finesse and flair. She has an uncanny way in Captivity of combining two plot lines into one incredible story. If vampirish stories are right up your alley, then you won't want to miss this one! --Patricia A. Rasey, author of Deadly Obsession and the Hour Before Dawn
A fast-moving "good vampire vs. evil vampire" adventure, with the two sides fighting over a kidnapped teenage boy, CAPTIVITY has rich characterization as well as sustained suspense...--Margaret L. Carter, author of Dark Changeling (www.hardshell.com ), winner of the 2000 Eppie Award for Horror
“The Murder Game will find a home with those
who enjoy a good mystery flavored with just the right amount of romance, deceit
and suspense. Highly recommended.”
“THE MURDER GAME
is fast paced with numerous twists and turns, throwing in a little romance along
the way. This was definitely a fun read.”
EYES OF TRUTH:“This is one of the rare books that sticks in your mind days and even months after you read it. A must read at all cost.” ~~ Ken Mason for Scribes World Reviews.
EYES OF TRUTH is a remarkable fantasy with a
unique setting and memorable characters. It breaks every cliche of both fantasy
and vampire novels without hesitation, and the result is sheer brilliance.”‑‑Elaine
Corvidae, award‑winning author of WINTER'S ORPHANS and WOLFKIN
EYES OF TRUTH:“... a well‑wrought and overall
satisfying detective novel in a world of a lot less technology and a little more
magic than our own." ~~ Cathy Krusberg, The Mad Bibliographer, for The Vampire's
Crypt 25 (Spring 2002).
EYES OF TRUTH:
“Suzane's attention to detail has crafted a
tangible world with characters and lore that makes "The Eyes of Truth" much more
than mere fiction, but more like ancient mythology.” ~~ Nicole Givens Kurtz,
eBook Reviews Weekly, author of A COMPLETE WOMAN
EYES OF
TRUTH: “This is a great story, well crafted and a bit more
unusual than most fantasy books I've read. There are no goblins and trolls here,
but different entities just as interesting, if not more so. The world comes
alive and the characters are well drawn, jumping right out of the page. You care
what happens to them and I for one would like to read more adventures set in the
world of Naj.”~~ Annette Gisby, author of Silent Screams
EYES OF TRUTH: Writer Linda Suzane has again
produced a work of monumental facility. The mythical world Suzane has created in
"Eyes of Truth" is filled with a broad spectrum of characters, localities, morés
and situations. All are designed to carry the reader along on a wild ride of
excitement. ... presented with dynamic dialogue, powerful action and potent
predicaments.”~~ Molly Martin
EYES OF TRUTH: “I couldn’t put this book down
and cannot say enough good things about it. ... The alien theme is as rich as
Asian cultures are supposed to be, exotic, daring and a little frightening at
times. Dar cannot be lied to, but the killer may very well be another Insu‑ha
that can mask his lies so cunningly as to confuse the Eyes of Truth, and when
Dar arrives in Dak‑moon the killings don’t stop, they accelerate... and the
bodies are drained of blood...” ~~ Bob Yosco, Shadowkeepzine.com Issue
57 March 2002,
"Eyes of Truth is a well written enjoyable
tale that flows easily and keeps the tension right to the very end. It is good
to read a story that is not set in the usual pseudo‑medieval world that is
favored by so many other authors.” ~~ Lesley Mazey for The Eternal Night
