As you know, I’ve been on a\u00a0 \u2018mission\u2019 to celebrate a NZ Speculative Fiction book every day on Twitter for #NZBookMonthMay<\/a> without repeating an author, even though some have considerably more than one book to their name.<\/p>\n

I am very pleased to say that I am wrapping up Week 4 and the month (tomorrow) without failing in that aim. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s the roundup for this final week:<\/p>\n

\"Spark\"<\/a>Monday 25:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Rachel Craw, Spark<\/em><\/strong> (YA; Science Fiction)
\n.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Cattra's<\/a>Tuesday 26:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Anna Mackenzie, Cattra’s Legacy<\/em><\/strong> (YA; Fantasy)
\n.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Mansfield<\/a>Wednesday 27:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Debbie & Matt Cowens, Mansfield With Monsters<\/em><\/strong> (Mashup; Fantasy)
\n.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"COV_Necklace.indd\"<\/a>Thursday 28:<\/strong><\/p>\n

RL Stedman, A Necklace of Souls<\/em><\/strong> (YA; Fantasy)
\n.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Chimes_The\"<\/a>Friday 29:<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"Under<\/a>Saturday 30:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Maurice Gee, Under The Mountain<\/em><\/strong> (Junior; Fantasy)
\n.<\/span><\/p>\n

And anticipating tomorrow, I thought I probably should finish up by including one of my own books. As I’ve done with others authors, I’ll reference a first-in-series. (Of course, Thornspell<\/em><\/strong> could turn out to be part of a series, but it’s all Wall Of Night<\/a> for now. \ud83d\ude09 )
