Welcome to Shoot The Muse!--the homeworld of bestselling speculative fiction author Celina Summers. What do I do here you ask? Well, I shoot my Muses. If you're looking for Elf-Killing...well...that would be my blog.
JUST IN!!! New reviews for The Gift of Redemption are coming in!
"...This has to be the best fantasy romance I have ever read. I could not put this book down until I had read the final page. While it is clearly the second book in a series, the author does such a good job of weaving background information into the storyline that the reader never feels cheated. Ms. Summers skillfully draws her readers into the book. The characters are so realistic that they appear to step from the pages. A devilishly wonderful book that I highly recommend to one and all!"-- Regina from Coffee Time Romance--and she gave GoR FIVE cups!!
From Bitten by Books:
"...I’m giving The Gift of Redemption 4 ½ tombstones. I loved revisiting the characters, and watching them grow – especially Tamsen – was a delight. Celina Summers really packs in the drama and love that was so evident in her first novel into this action-packed delight. There is a scene at the end that left me in tears..."--Brianna at Bitten by Books
More reviews as they come in--stay tuned!

What's Going On Now?
I am currently finishing the final draft of Book Three in The Asphodel Cycle: Temptation of Asphodel. There will be lots of updates and reviews for Redemption coming soon!
The Reckoning of Asphodel was a top ten finalist for Best Sci-Fi/Fantasy novel of 2007 on the ever so fabulous Preditors & Editors Readers' Poll. Asphodel spent some time at number one on Fictionwise.com best seller list for Fantasy novels!
The Reckoning of Asphodel had one heck of a year. Be sure to check out my reviews page to get an idea of how fabulous it was. Hopefully, Redemption will follow the trend. The third book in the Asphodel Cycle, The Temptation of Asphodel is due to be released in late 2008 or early 2009. There's a lot more of Tamsen and Brial to go!
My short story, "One Hell of a Cat," was released by New Myths ezine in March, 2008. Go check out their site!
