   Posted by: admin   in Uncategorized

Ah, what a month.  From all reports, the response to NETHERWOOD has been terrific.  The book has been sighted in Hawaii and Mississippi, Texas and Rhode Island, in Walmarts and Barnes & Noble book stores and in supermarkets.   Without further ado, the winner of the contest is:

Sorry for the slight delay in announcing the winner and in posting an I-CON recap…something big is brewing and I will soon have an announcement – and a new reason for a celebratory contest J  Thank you all so much for your support! 

Finally, I realize that I have never indulged in an official book pimping post for NETHERWOOD…so check out these great reviews:

 “Original, exciting…you can’t stop turning the pages!” —NYT Bestselling author Susan Squires

The two leads are strong, intelligent and likable characters and the action-packed story kept me turning the pages…[T]he human vs. computer struggle woven through the story gives Netherwood a unique and deeply-felt quality which will make it a sure reread for me.—All About Romance

 

“NETHERWOOD is one of those books that had me going back to re-read sections just for the beauty of the writing itself.  The story and imagery are fascinating…you need to go buy NETHERWOOD.” – The Good, the Bad, and the Unread   

 “Ms. Lang’s writing has always been superb, yet the complexity of this plot and the relationships she has made integral to its furtherance shows that she is light years ahead of the game. Though there are elements of Robin Hood, the Matrix, Braveheart, and the Prisoner, just to name a few things implied in the text, they are freshly blended into something new that will challenge your mind and keep you hooked.” —Eternal Night

“Netherwood is an action romance with many surprises along the way.  Ms. Lang packs this tale with futuristic action, an intriguing storyline and characters that have you cheering on their fight for survival. Netherwood is an entertaining escape into a fascinating future world.”–Darque Reviews

“This book was a great book. How do I measure that, simple I started off reading it last Wednesday and finished it by Wednesday night. This is the kind of book you tell the hubby to pick up Chinese because you’re not going to cook tonight.” –SaraiJ

 “Can I tell you this book totally and completely ROCKS? I mean, from page one, rocks. . . . it’s got this WHOLE other level going on, discussions of the soul, of what makes us human, a love story, all wrapped up in a sci fi book with avatars and “Netherwood.” The book is AWESOME!”   –author Erica Orloff

Wow that’s the first time anyone has used me as a pimp. I feel strangely honored to have such a title.

The Machine

Spam Karma 2 is the proud successor to Spam Karma, with whom it shares most of the development ideas, but absolutely none of the code. It is meant to stop all forms of automated Blog spam effortlessly, while remaining as unobtrusive as possible to regular commenters.

The Man

Dr Dave is a card-carrying Evil Genius still busy plotting world domination from his secret hideout in the Parisian catacombs (having recently relocated from his volcanic lair in Tokyo, Japan). When he is not wasting his time coding ridiculously elaborate anti-spam plugins, he also writes somewhat offensive entries on miscellaneous pointless matters in his blog.

The Bribes

Donations are in no way mandatory.

Yet, I have been spending considerable amounts of time writing, supporting and debugging both SK1 and SK2. Therefore, if you like what you see, and want to see more of it in the future, feel free to help me finance my many costly addictions by droping a buck or two in the tip jar (more reasons why you should)...

On behalf of Dr Dave Inc., I present you with our guarantee that no less than 25% of all proceedings will go directly toward the purchase of the finest Bombay Sapphire this city has to offer.

Kind words of support or constructive comments are always welcome as well. Please use this online form to contact me.
