I'm late in posting this information. the tour has been going on for several days now so here's a introduction to exactly what the butler-banks blog tour is:
*******************************************************
In honor of Octavia Butler and L.A. Banks, two giants in the world of Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror and, indeed, the entire world of literature, we are launching the Butler / Banks Book Tour.

What is it, exactly, you ask?

The tour is 30 (or more) days of Speculative Fiction (Science Fiction, Fantasy and Horror / Paranormal) written by and about Black people.

Each day, a different author will take the stage and bring us into their world – or worlds – through exciting book excerpts, reviews of their books, cool book trailers, audio recordings of a chapter or two and anything else fun and exciting y’all would like to share.


Here's the line up:
