“Lander” is Red Hot

by
Lander-meme-03

Some more reviews coming in for Lander, and OMG they are making me cry: “Yes, it’s beautifully written. But it’s more than that. It’s vast. It’s huge on every scale you can think to rate a story. It hits home emotionally, it’s suspenseful, it grabs at you intellectually, keeps you thinking about all the possibilities that may lie in store, and yes, makes you anxiously await the final chapter… What joy!” —Melanie, Scattered Thoughts and Rogue Words “‘Lander’ is the fantastic second novel in the ‘Oberon Cycle’ series… an explosive story that held my attention from the first page and … Read more

It’s release day for “Lander,” and the reviews are starting to come in. I’m thrilled!” “I’m not sure I can do justice to this book with a mere review, but I’ll try.

Sorry (not sorry)!” —Becky Condit, USA Today HEA Blog “Mr. Coatsworth’s world-building is truly outstanding, it’s not easy to create a world that feels so realistic and … Read more

REVIEW: Skythane

by
Skythane

Just got a fantastic review of Skythane from Jayne at WROTE Podcast: Having read The Stark Divide, I was already confident in this author’s world-building technique and ability to tell a rip-roaring tale. Skythane is the story of Xander and Jameson, ostensibly on a mission to find supplies of pith (a mind-altering drug) but they find themselves at the centre of a race to save the planet from destruction… I loved the way the way every creature, every fruit, plant, the technology, the weather,  food cooking methods, the weaponry, the transport, the cities, religious structure, every little thing has been … Read more

Rainbow Snippets: Ithani

by
rainbow snippet

First draft, and fresh-written, from the third and final book of the Oberon Cycle trilogy. Book two (“Lander”) comes out Tuesday. 🙂 Jameson scrambled away from the monstrous site that confronted them, trying to find purchase in the loose dirt of the crater. The creature was eight feet tall and wingless. It seemed to share the same general body plan as the Ithani, with three sets of limbs and a thorax, but it was thick where they were thin, heavy where they were lithe and beautiful, and… gravid was the only word that came to mind. Its skin was a … Read more

Great Review for “The Stark Divide”

by
Ryane Chatman Review - The Stark Divide

Just got a fabulous review for “The Stark Divide” from Ryane Chatman:   Mr. Coatsworth continues to delight me with each book he writes. I am whisked off to reaches unknown, or reminded of places I’d like to see. He spins tales of longing, despair, faith (not always in the religious sense), and hope. Hope being the key feature of all of his stories. Hope keeps you young. Faith keeps you believing in hope. These are lessons we forget or we become too cynical to carry….   See the full review here: https://www.thornsandink.com/single-post/2018/02/01/The-Stark-Divide-Liminal-Sky-Book-One Get it now: DSP Publications (paperback): https://www.dsppublications.com/books/the-stark-divide-by-j-scott-coatsworth-416-b DSP … Read more

REVIEW: The Stark Divide – Five Stars

by
The Stark Divide - Xtreme Delusins

Just got a fantastic review for “The Stark Divide” from Xtreme Delusions. “I was kept on the figurative edge of my seat much of the time while reading this and had to force myself to put it down at 5 a.m. at one point so that I could be at least partially functional when meeting with friends later that day.” Authors love this sort of praise. 😛 http://www.xtreme-delusions.com/2018/01/13/review-the-stark-divide-by-j-scott-coatsworth/ Get it now: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B074G2NJP6/
