Publisher: Tor
Released April 10, 2012

In Blue Magic, the sequel to Indigo Springs, fantasy writer A.M. Dellamonica continues the magical story of Astrid Lethewood and Sahara Knox. The story begins with the deranged self-proclaimed goddess Sahara on trial for treason at an Air Force base along with a handful of her rabidly devoted followers, known as the Alchemites, including Caroline Forest. Caroline’s husband Will, a former cop, is working with the authorities to convict the so-called eco-terrorists and still hopes to save his wife while coming to terms with the end of his marriage. Also, Caroline has hidden their kids in a secret place and refuses to say where. As if that’s not enough for one man to bear, there’s a strange gate made of brambles that keeps following Will all over the base; a gate that only he can see, created by Astrid should he decide to accept her offer to help him. But that would mean he’d have to first accept magic and he’s not sure he’s ready to do that.

For his birthday today we remember the late Mick Ronson, who was a force in rock and roll as a session guitarist, best remembered for his work on some classic David Bowie albums.

Born in 1946, Michael “Mick” Ronson hailed from England and bounced around local bands in his youth in the 1960s before he finally hit pay dirt landing a gig with Elton John, playing guitar on his “Madman Across the Water” song from John’s Tumbleweed Connection sessions. That song remained unreleased and later became the name of an Elton John album, but it put Ronson in more of a high profile in the music community as a result. Following this, he crossed paths with David Bowie and was the lead guitarist on Bowie’s records The Man Who Sold the World, Hunky Dory, and Bowie’s 1972 breakthrough release The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and The Spiders From Mars. Ronson was one of the Spiders From Mars and his guitar sound lent as much to the Bowie glam rock/hard rock/early punk sound that has been often associated with Bowie throughout that time.
