Fantasy, Lore, & More: Tattoo of Crimson

Hi, I’m indie fantasy author, Melinda Kucsera, and in this episode, Sarah Chislon is joining me to talk about her book, Tattoo of Crimson.

What’s it about?

  • A gently-bred herbalist races to stop a magical serial killer in this gaslamp fantasy murder mystery. 

  • Tattoo of Crimson is a character-driven gaslamp fantasy novel.

  • Seeking a cure for her own fae-touched madness, herbalist Jessa Caldwell finds herself hunting an untraceable killer who leaves deadly magical tattoos on victims. She must ally with an Otherworldly being to stop the murders, even as it threatens her sanity.

What’s in this episode:

  • Sarah Chislon will pull us into her deadly, magical world with an excerpt from Tattoo of Crimson, and we’ll explore the fae influence corrupting society.

  • We’ll find out if quick-witted Jessa can track down the magical killer before becoming a victim herself.

  • We’ll discuss Jessa’s journey from seeking a cure to seeking justice to save her city from a sinister force. 

  • Join us for a tale filled with mythic monsters, an unlikely detective, and a killer on the loose.

Epic Fantasy Adventures with Melinda Kucsera
I am Melinda Kucsera, an indie fantasy author and I narrate chapters from my adventure books, talk about other fantasy books and shows and try my best not to get derailed by the shenanigans of characters who are supposed to be fictional, but they don't stay within the pages of my books. I tell all their secrets and what trouble they get into in between books.
