Debra A. Kemp Named As Finalist For National Indie Excellence 2007 Book Awards.
Author Debra A. Kemp was named a finalist for the National Indie Excellence 2007 Book Awards for her novel The House of Pendragon II: The Recruit.
Kemp's book, the second in a series based on the legendary stories of King Arthur, has been garnering a lot of attention lately. It was selected by Renditions of Camelot as book of the month in April 2007, and has received several stellar book reviews including a recommendation for a “Book Sense Recommended Read” by Heartland Reviews since its publication January 2007.
Debra Kemp is pleased her book has placed as a finalist for a National Book Award. "It's a validation for all the research and dedication that has gone into my House of Pendragon series so far. When I first became interested in the King Arthur legends, I read every book about him in the high school’s library, and then the ones in the public library. And over the years, the story and my character wouldn't let me go. It’s really a labor of love for me. The nation’s best independent books compete for these awards. I’m honored to be a finalist."
