Bledsoe wrote the Eddie LaCrosse series as a combination of the sword and sorcery genre and the hard boiled mystery genre. It doesn’t seem like it would work, but it really does here. Eddie LaCrosse is essentially a sword for hire in the form of a classic PI. For 25 pieces of gold, he’ll do anything and stay til the job is done. In The Sword-Edged Blond he’s hired by a king to find a missing princess, but ends up in a web of mystery and deceit. A unique and fresh take on the genre.
The Hum and the Shiver introduces us to the Tufa, a mysterious group of people living in the mountains of East Tennessee. Private Bronwyn Hyatt is a Tufa who is returning to her hometown as a war hero. Their origin is a mystery, but there are clues hidden in their music that has been passed down for generations. Hyatt returns home after leaving a war to find trouble at home as well. An impending is predicted by an Omen while Hyatt has lost a piece of herself. Can she find it before it’s too late?
