Authors weigh in on their favorite DIKs

You may be aware of the massive Desert Island Keepers party going on in the blogosphere, complete with hero harems, Sex on the Beach and men in kilts. If you have been hiding under a rock, the DIK party is 20 romance bloggers who first each listed their 6 Desert Island Keeper books and now are participating in a hero round robin, each taking turns to pick a hero we want to take with us on the desert island.

I have replaced my island hut with a beautiful Andrew Carnegie library in which to house all the new books I’ve been introduced to as well as my men.

My harem currently includes: Ethan McCabe (Demon Night, Meljean Brook) Hugh Castleford (Demon Angel, Meljean Brook) Westley (The Princess Bride, William Goldman), Lord Robert Andreville (Robin) (Angel Rogue, Mary Jo Putney), Kieran vel Solande (Tairen Soul Series, C.L. Wilson), Garret Langham, the Earl of Mayne, from Eloisa James’ Pleasure for Pleasure, with one round left to go.

Cat fights have ensued. Comments have flown madly. Great books have been introduced. One unfortunate Guardian was turned into a feather duster. Wild drunken debauchery with our favorite romance and fantasy heroes is the name of the game.

To catch the action:

• ROUND 1: (now over) Hosted at CarolynJean’s.
• ROUND 2: (now over) Hosted at Sarai’s
• ROUND 3: (now over) Hosted at lisabea’s.
• ROUND 4: (now over) Hosted at MaryKate’s.
• ROUND 5: (now over) Hosted at Christine’s.
• ROUND 6: Hosted at Katie(babs) & Kristie(J)’s.
  ROUND 7: Hosted at Sula’s!

Lisbea is the fount of coolness for having invited authors to list their own favorite Desert Island Keepers and has posted them on her blog Nose in a Book. Many of the authors have taken it a step further by offering free books to lucky commenters, because THEY ARE THE SHIZNIT. Check out her site and leave a comment.
