When I first heard that Wes was posting the Bullring book, I was disappointed that it wasn't the next Dawnwalker book. But I ordered the rtf version as soon as it was announced since I want support Wes' efforts. It only took reading about three chapters before I was hooked. Sure, I want to read the next Dawnwalker book when it comes out but I equally look forward to future Bullring books. What a way to smash a writer's block.
