Fantasy, Lore, Shifters, and More: Unfamiliar Territory

Hi, I’m indie fantasy author, Melinda Kucsera, and in this episode, R. Lindsay Carter is joining me to talk about the first book in her series, Unfamiliar Territory. What’s it about? Bounty hunter Cressida Curtain harbors a secret - she’s not entirely human. Her existence holds an ancient evil at bay, a legacy passed down for generations. But she has a business to run hunting bad guys, and preventing the apocalypse won’t stop her. Unfamiliar Territory is the first in a 4-book series of imaginative, action-packed fantasy adventures. What's in this episode: R. Lindsay Carter reads from Unfamiliar Territory, transporting us to a world of supernatural bounty hunters, fantastical creatures and looming evil. We discuss the fantasy elements and secret legacy that shape Cressida’s story. We journey into the world where the fate of humanity rests on the shoulders of an unlikely heroine who just wants to do her job.  We’ll talk about how Cressida navigates hunting criminals, hiding her true nature, and thwarting an ancient threat - all in a day’s work for a bounty hunter who’s not quite human.
