I am delighted and honoured to announce that The Gathering Of The Lost<\/em> has been nominated for the international Gemmell Legend Award<\/a>, one of three awards established to honour heroic fantasy author David Gemmell<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The award is given for the best novel, published in the preceding calendar year, in the epic, heroic, or high Fantasy genre that David Gemmell exemplified in novels such as Legend, Lion Of Macedon<\/strong><\/em>, and Lord Of The Silver Bow<\/em><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

I number David Gemmell as one of the significant influences in my own love of epic-heroic Fantasy. It is also a tremendous thrill to see my novel longlisted with so many international Fantasy authors whose work is celebrated in the genre—what my friend, poet Bernadette Hall, would call “the crown of good company.”<\/p>\n

Once the longlist is curated, the Gemmell Awards are reader voted, with voting links on the award web page\u2014so for The Gathering Of The Lost<\/em> to get through into the final round of shortlisted books is dependent on your<\/em> support.<\/p>\n

So I am asking all my readers here, who feel they can in good conscience do so, to click on the following link <\/strong>and vote now for The Gathering Of The Lost<\/em>:
