On a lark, I decided to Google my name plus my upcoming book’s title, to see if any of the review copies sent out by Simon & Schuster’s publicity department had garnered any reviews.

It turns out that there actually is one review of The Calling, posted on May 18, 2009, by Harriet Klausner over at Alternative-Worlds.com.

It’s a mostly favorable review, despite a few semi-justifiable quibbles about the book’s concept.

The money quotes:

“This is an interesting paranormal thriller starring an intriguing, intrepid lead character…”

“…fast-paced… [a] super thriller.”

Not bad. I’ll take it. Thank you, Harriet!
