The Oracle of Delphi Blog Tour: Day 1

Hi everyone and welcome to my first stop on The Oracle of Delphi Series Blog Tour!

Wooooop!

First of all I want to thank Diantha for asking me for this tour. It's been a blast! :D

Now, what awesomeness do I have for you today?

1. A kick-ass interview with Apollo from The Oracle of Delphi Series. Yes, the god! I had so much fun with this!
2. Cover reveal + teaser!

3. Giveaway!

Enjoy!

*Stephanie
*Apollo


Welcome to Bookfever, Apollo or do you prefer L.A.?  *smiles nervously and tucks lock of hair behind ear*

I prefer 'my lord', but since you're a friend of Diantha's, Apollo will do. This time.

Alrighty... Well, I have some questions for you… first of all, Jenn from Simply Young Adult says hi. I don’t know if you know her but she interviewed Ace not too long ago.

Of course I know who she is, mortal. I am the god of the Prophecy, aren't I? I knew of her before she did.

*clears throat*
You obviously have some family issues. Did you know I interviewed Strafford a few months ago? How would you describe your bond with him and your other sons?

*raises a brow* Is that what we have? Family issues? *snorts* We are way beyond issues at this point. My sons and I...well...we get along all right. The Prince and I? That's another story all together. Just know that he hates me. A lot.

What do you think of being a god? Is it cool, or have you been screwed?

Oh, I've been screwed. Hundreds of times. *winks* But if you're referring to me being screwed over by fate, the answer is no. Fate hasn't screwed me. Being a god has no definition. I could never explain to you what it feels like. Just know that I pity you, mortal. Where the passing of time only does wonders for the divine, it does terrible things to your kind. I would not trade places with you for anything.

Well then...
In your opinion, what is your best feature?

The entirety of me is my best feature. I'm the best from any and all angles. *grins devilshly*

What do you think is wrong with MOST people, overall?

Mortals are too inquisitive for my liking and must have all of the answers to all of the questions that are better left unanswered. In terms even you can understand, mortals know too damn much. *glares* You included.

*grins*
Would you consider yourself heroic? If yes, what about you is heroic?

*rolls eyes* Heroism is a trait of the inferior. Gods aren't heroes, mortal, nor do we want to be. We are already great. I am great. Only those who don't think the same of themselves need to prove themselves heroic.

What music do you like, except your own of course. What song is "your song?" Why?

I am the god of Music, so I love it all. I don't have any particular song I enjoy. With centuries of pieces to choose from, how could you expect me to pick just one?

What is your most prized mundane possession? Why do you value it so much?

My lyre is my most prized possession but it's far from mundane, mortal. It has many forms and produces the most seductive music you have ever or will ever hear. It's impossible to place value on an instrument like this. It's priceless.

How ticklish are you? Where are you ticklish? *grins*

*returns the grin* You amuse me, mortal. But answer me this. Would you like me to tell you all the places I'm ticklish? *leans back and spreads arms* Or would you like to discover that for yourself?

Oh my...

Lightning round;

Boxers or Briefs? Commando.

Winter or Summer? Honestly, mortal? Summer.

Books or Movies? Books.

Blondes or Brunettes? *grins* Redheads.

Love or Lust? Both are a pain in my ass, but if have to choose...Love.

Horror or Comedy Myth is horrific enough and I like to be amused, so comedy.

Thank you for the very interesting interview, Apollo! *coughs*Commando niiiice*coughs*

Character Interview & Giveaway!

When you see this book cover (done by Diantha herself!) don't you just want to read it? Well, you're all in luck today! I have a fabulous character interview with one of the most swoon worthy guys I've ever read about and an giveaway! 

I've already read and review the book. 4/5 stars! 

You can check it out here.

I had the honor to interview demigod Prince Strafford Law!

Here's the interview. Enjoy! 

Welcome to Bookfever, Strafford and thanks for doing this interview with me. *smiles*

(Returns the smile) Thank you for invitin’ me, Stephanie. Nice blog, by the way. It’s a lot like you...quite cute. (Winks)

To start things off... Where did you grow up?

I was born in Ireland, but I grew up in Myth. All demigod Royals grow up in Myth. Our celestial parents like to keep us...close. They’d never admit it, but I know it’s ‘cause they’re scared of us. (smiles) And they should be.

How would you describe your family in one sentence?

I’ll do you one better, wan. One word. Complicated.

So tell me, what is it like to be a demigod Prince? What are the ups and downs of it?

Growin’ up as a Prince was bloody awesome. I mean, it was bloody good fun. I lived in a castle, I had servants, and I was practically allowed to do wha’ever I wanted. As a Prince, I had tha’ right. (Looks away) Things are different now though. You wanted to know the downs to being a Prince? There are none. There’s jus’ downs to being me.

Do you have any regrets?

(Glares) I have more than I can count, wan.

What's one of your favorite things about Chloe?

(Glare vanishes as quickly as it came)(Expression changes into one of pure adoration) I love everythin’ abou’ Chloe. Her feisty nature, her sarcastic sense of humor, the way she looks in a pair of jeans...and tha’ red hair... (He clears his throat) She’s wonderful. Too good for me, tha’s for sure.

And last but not least... Where do you see yourself in five years?

Tha’ would depend, wan, on if I’m even still alive in five years. Demigods die all the time. The Heavens of Myth is a dangerous place. (Narrows eyes) I’d stay far away from it if I were you. Jus’ ask Diantha.

Thanks for the interview!

And now on to the giveaway!

Diantha is offering 3 ebooks of her book Prophecy of the Most Beautiful. So there will be 3 winners who will get to choose the eformat of their liking. I've got lots of entries you can do. Of course you don't need to do them all but the more entries you fill in the more chance you got of winning! 

 And as always the giveaway is international!

Character Interview with Costa (Succubus Lost by Tiffany Allee)

In honor of the Midsummer's Eve Giveaway Hop (which will run from June 20th-June 26th, where I (with thanks to the author) will give a copy of Succubus Lost by Tiffany Allee away, I have a character interview with Valerio Costa, the hot agent from Succubus Lost.

Find my review for Succbus Lost here.

&

find my review for Banshee Charmer (First book in "From the Files of the Otherworlder Enforcement Agency") here.

Enjoy! ;D

S: Stephanie
C: Costa

S: Thanks for agreeing to do this interview, Agent Costa. To break the ice, could you tell me where you grew up?

C: I spent my childhood in Italy, but moved to New York when I was still in grade school. I've moved around a lot since then.

S: Would you say your childhood was happy? Why? Why not?

C: My, aren't we curious? My childhood was a good one. Moved around a lot, but kids get used to that. Always had my parents and my brother, so I was set.

S: What is it like to be a salamander? 

C: Easier now that the relations between normals and oh-dubs have settled down. Not that being a salamander is the roughest otherworlder to be, hiding what I am is far easier than it might be for a vampire or a succubus. But it's definitely easier these days.

And I never have to look for a match.

S: How did you end up with The Otherworlder Enforcement Agency? 

C: I grew up traveling the world, and I always wanted to be a cop. The OWEA keeps me moving around a lot, which I enjoyed. But I think I'll try to say a little closer to home now. I hear they have an opening in the Chicago office for cases that will mainly keep me close to home.

S: What’s your greatest talent?

*grins*

C: Well my greatest talent out of the bedroom is my ability to light things on fire. Coincidentally, that's my greatest talent inside the bedroom too.

S: Do you have any regrets? What are they?

C: Hell, I have plenty of regrets. Most of which I'm not really enthused about sharing. If you must know, my biggest regret is treating Marisol badly when we first met because of something that happened long before I met her. But don't worry your pretty head about it. I make it up to her on a daily basis.

S: What is it like to be in a relationship with Marisol Whitman, a succubus?

C: It's hella frustrating and fantastic. She's a great woman, and her succubus nature makes her sexy as hell. Of course, that means I have to glare at other men a lot more than I used to. And I'm occasionally tempted to hit them for staring a little too long. But, I'm having the time of my life with her.

S: How was it like working with her on a case?

C: Maddening and invigorating. I was so on edge through the whole case. Half angry with her for things another succubus had done, half out of my mind attracted to her. But she's damn good at what she does, and I was lucky to work with her.

S: How would you describe yourself in one sentence?

C: Hot. *winks*

S: Last question. Are you on a case right now? Could you perhaps tell me something about it?

C: Sorry, but I can't talk about an ongoing investigation. And I'll kindly warn you not to press the issue.

Tiffany Allee currently lives in Phoenix, AZ, by way of Chicago and Denver, and is happily married to a secret romantic. She spends her days working in Corporate America while daydreaming about sexy heroes, ass-kicking heroines, and interesting ways to kill people (for her books, of course). Her nights are reserved for writing and bothering her husband and cats (according to them). Her passions include reading, chocolate, travel, wine, and family.
