BLUE VALOR by author ILLONA HAUS


The book Blue Valor was just released, and boy what a book !! I am most certainly biased, because I am on the acknowledgments page as a "Pigeon Aficiondo".

But, the very best part, is that Warren Smith and a pigeon play a major role in catching the really bad guy in the book. If I told you anymore, I would ruin it for you.

If you would like to know more about this famous author and her books check out her web at : http://www.illonahaus.com/books.html

Warren,

This book looks really good! I am going to pick up a copy. It looks like the type of books that I like to read, even without the pigeon. Congradulations on YOUR INPUT! I will be looking for your name.

Hey Warren, I almost missed this thread and would have been mad at myself. Mysteries are my most favorite books (at least for right now - I tend to switch around) and to have someone I "know" in one will be a great incentive to buy the book.

Wow!

Maggie

Yes Lady and Feather,

We have the makings here of a really good best seller ! My family has been fighting over the copy of Blue Valor I just got in the mail. They read the previous book Blue Mercy, and it is apparent, we are talking about a history making author here.

I tired to connect the other link, where ILLONA HAUS first came onto Pigeons.com, but I could not figure it out.

In the mean time, it is a homing pigeon which saves the day, and helps to rid the streets of a guy, so bad, you will need to keep your lights on at night, if you dare read the book !!

I am getting confused which isn't too hard to do. Do both books have pigeons and Warren, are you in both of them?

This is really great.

Hello Maggie !

No, in all of the excitement of the release of Blue Mercy, we forgot that the "Famous" Warren Smith, did not come into the picture until "Blue Valor" came out. In the mean time, our "Charactor" made the first issue a "best seller" simply by telling all his friends and relatives about "The Book", and how he was now famous.

Illona has millions of fans without us, but it was fun to play along.

Wow, Illona, welcome to our group. I, for one, am so grateful for anything positive written about pigeons that I just want to say thanks. I am a huge mystery buff and plan to get your books.
