It's Launch Day for My Novel!

If you haven't yet ordered your copy of In Search of the the Magic Theater, you can get it in paperback, e-book, or special edition hardcover from the Regal House website! There'll be a launch party Sunday at the Ghostlight cafe on Wayne in Dayton, and other opportunities later in the month to get signed copies directly from me in the Dayton area.

And here's a lovely review from Goodreads:

In Search of the Magic Theater weaves the lives of Sarah, a very particular Cellist, and Kari Zilke, her aunt's new lodger. Sarah is at first resistant to the presence of Kari but before long she finds herself taking an interest in her life and their lives become unexpectedly intertwined. Sarah has been hiding behind her music, whilst Kari avoids her theatrical past, but both women will find their lives disrupted by a new presence.

This is a novel of self-discovery. It's clever, it's layered, it's fun. Heubner gives us a real sense of the generational tensions, from Sarah's feeling towards people her own age, to Kari slipping through the gaps of time. The story is drenched in theatre, art and music, and we even get a glimpse into the theatre piece at the end.

I'll be thinking about this one for a while.
